Japanese Food 🍱🍣🍶

Went to lunch w friends and ordered a Beppu ramen - essentially ramen w assorted seafood such as prawn, crabstick, mussels + other ingredients such as bamboo shoots, corn, seaweed and half hanjuku egg (16.80++). We also ordered cuttlefish mayo (8.80++) and pork gyoza (5.80++) to share. I also ordered a lime juice (3.50++) that is refillable - a definite must order if you are going to challenge yourself to high spicy levels.

The ramen has customisable spicy level that ranges from 1 to 8. As a 小辣 eater, i only dared to opt for level 1 and I still felt like its quite spicy but the spiciness gels well with the soup. Overall a decent ramen and would rate it a 3.5/5

Im always a huge fan of mayo and the cuttlefish mayo is to die for. Instead of just providing mayo at the side, they drizzled the cuttlefish with mayo and torched it slightly, giving it a smoky touch.

Gyoza, on the hand, was normal, not fantastically good or bad~

Overall i might come back again and will try to order different sides/non-ramen dishes to try out since they offer many different selections!

Value-for-money: 4/5
Burpple savings: 4/5 (1 for 1 don)

Total adds up to less than $21 after gst & service charge after using Beyond for Truffle Beef Yakiniku and Salmon Mentaiko Don ($18.90 each)

Ordered medium rare and the beef is tender and the rice is not just plain white rice but came as fried rice which is fragrant and flavourful.

Salmon used is fresh and the portion given is very generous. Came during lunchtime on a weekday and it was quite packed already.

Will definitely come back again

Value-for-money: 4/5
Burpple savings: 2.5/5 (~ $6.60 per set)
Food quality: 3.5/5

The set includes 2 bowls of don, 2 cups of tea, 2 salad, 2 miso soups and 4 yakitori sticks (not included in this pic)

The mentaiyaki don includes a good variety of seafood - salmon, tuna, octopus, prawn, scallop etc so the taste is definitely not flat or jelat. The different ingredients adds a different texture to each bite.

The miso soup is very flavourful and even includes clams which is a pleasant surprise.

Yakitori is not bad and quite tender!

The salad is abit of a subpar, but since it is an appetiser, it is probably included in the set to make it more healthy🤣

Tea is refillable in some outlets and not in some so will probably check with the staff.

Pricing wise, the set costs $34.98 nett even though the app states $29.90 (due to gst and service charge). Burpple savings is not significant since the restaurant also has an ongoing promotion set at $35.90++

But overall will still go back again for this hearty set that includes everything you want for a meal 🤤
