was on the saltier side, but pairs nicely with the side of purple rice (seriously v fluffy, one of the most amazing rice i’ve had). meat was too fatty for our liking though.

the fried chicken here always hits the spot! :) came down during lunch instead of dinner for a change, only to find out that they had different menus for lunch and dinner. didn’t manage to order the kimchi pancake that my friend was craving :(

ordered this thinking it would be similar to the sichuan 红油抄手, but this version had much more vinegar and less spice to it. the chili oil wasn’t as fiery as it seems 😂

overall experience at isshin machi wasn’t the best, was seated at a table with 2 out of 4 chairs soaked. dishes were served quite slowly as well, with the first and last dish served with a 30 minute interval.

was the first dish to be served out of the 2 other dishes that we ordered. generous amount of sauce but the overall portion was quite small. however, its perfect for sharing as it get a bit cloying after awhile.

on the milkier side and had nice pearls!

noodles were springy and had a nice bite to it, would consider a $1 top up in the future to try the guan miao noodles! even though the pork chop was pretty tender, personally felt that it was a little bland and didn’t pair too well with the noodles.

A really hearty bowl of noodles for a rainy day! Loved every element of this dish, especially the generous slices of pork 🤤

Udon was really flavourful but may get jelak after awhile since its really rich in flavour. Not a big fan of the tempura though! Should have kept an eye out for those fresh out of the oil, the one I got was quite soggy and cold.
