Dontaku Ramen Japanese Restaurant @ ONE Utama

Whenever I go to One Utama Shopping Mall, I really don't know what should I have for dinner. May be due to the choice and variety which make me unable to choose or I would like to try everything available there. This time I came across this Japanese restaurant when I walk across from the new wing to old wing.

Sanshoku Bento - RM18.00

The reason why I choose this set is because it look so nice in the Menu which they serve the soba noodle in the glass cup. Well, not to my disappointment, I am quite please even they serve it in the wooden plate which I found the noodle is quite lots for one person. The cold noodle is nice and I really did enjoy it especially there are 3 type to try on. 

Side Dish - Hand roll and Cawan Mushi

The cold noodles set is serve with cawan mushi, salad hand roll and miso soup. The hand roll is nice but I personally think is too much cause after I finish the both hand roll which cause me unable to finish the noodles. I like the cawan mushi, it was really tasty and you may see the slice carrot in Sakura shape which make it so lovely. As for the Miso soup and salad, I think is nothing much to brag about since is taste just very common.

Chicken Teriyaki Set - RM 18.00

As for my husband, he had the chicken Teriyaki with rice. The chicken is so tender and since it serve in the hot plate which help to keep the food warm, I can see my husband really enjoying it to MAX. The set also come with cawan mushi, salad and soup as the side dishes.

Hot Ocha - RM2.00

We only ordered one drink as I had bring my own drinking water, is not that I did not want to order any beverage but since I am sick and are advisable to take boiled drinking water only. The red and blue and white stripe glass behind is one of their decoration on the wall. The place is quite cozy and I didn't understand why I had pass by this restaurant so many times and yet I didn't notice them.

Overall, I think we do enjoy the food and I believe so do the other customers. I believe the restaurant is quite pack during dinner time because I had my dinner as late as 8:30pm and yet I need to wait for a while to be seated. The total bill come to RM44.30, which inclusive of 10% service charge and 6 % GST. The restaurant is located at Lower Ground Floor, Lot LG 352, One Utama shopping mall.

Soup Restaurant @ One Utama

Whenever is raining day, I will be start craving for soup. Not just any soup but is Traditional Chinese Soup which is hot with aroma. I use to have visit the Soup Restaurant in Singapore and believe me their are super popular in Singapore where you need to queue especially during weekend and dinner time. Recently, I found this Soup Restaurant in One Utama, and I think they had another one in Jaya 33. Since my mother came to visit me from Singapore by bus and so coincidence the bus stop at Terminal Bandar Utama therefore, we decided to give a try at the Soup Restaurant here.

Let see what we had order:

Samsui Chicken - RM42.30

Samsui Chicken is their signature or must have dish if you visit this restaurant. The chicken is ok but cold and the ginger is a bit too oily and what I think it really spoil is the plastic spoon there?! how come a fine dinning Chinese restaurant serving with plastic spoon? 

Iceberg lettuce - come with the chicken

Lettuce is come with the chicken which you use it to wrap the chicken. The lettuce is very fresh and crunchy too. May be the chicken is too salty and oily for us therefore, is not even enough though.

Traditional Boiled Soup of the day - RM10.50

Well, I would like to say nothing special about the soup since is just a normal Lotus roots with peanut soup. I am glad that I ordered this, at least something warm for my meal. 

 Braised Peanuts - Starter

Claypot Eggplant with Salted Fish - RM18.95

Well, among all I think this will be the best dish. May be due to I like eggplant that why I personally think this dish is among the best of all. The eggplant is not overcook and it tender but I really didn't realise that is any salted fish though.

The Cutlery 

 The environment - Bamboo Tree

Cozy Environment 

Besides, we had order 3 plain rice for RM7.05, one Chinese tea RM2.35, two plain water for RM2.10 and since the implement of GST therefore the service charge is RM7.83 + GST of 6% for service charge which is RM0.47. For a meal for 3 pax which cost is RM91.55, I think is slightly expensive and disappointing for the quality of food here is not as good as the one in Singapore. Even though they charge for Service Charge but still I have to walk to the counter to make payment.
