Scallops Ramen @ Aoba Hokkaido Ramen

Another day spent at Vivo City and we decided upon having lunch at Aoba Hokkaido Ramen for two reasons: (1) we love Japanese food and (2) it had a queue which if you've been to Singapore, you'd know it would at least have decent food on the menu.

I had their Scallops Ramen. Actually it was called another name but unfortunately, I didn't save the receipt and they do not seem to have any online presence. I also ordered their Butter Corn as a side dish.

Their ramen was good and tasty although not as tasty as the one at Suki Sushi. There was a respectable amount of scallops in the dish although very tasty. It also had 2 halves of an egg, scallions and a sheet of seaweed. Overall, it was good dish. Perfect for when you need something warm in your tummy. I think their other noodle dishes would be better so you non-vegetarians/pescetarians should try those if you happen to be there.

As for their butter corn, that was a bit of a disappointment. I feel like all they did was open up a can of corn kernels, saute it in a teaspoon of butter and serve. I remember a similar dish from a local restaurant back in the Philippines called Oyster Boy. Their butter corn was served in a hot place topped with a generous amount of butter and cheese. Now that would have been worth the S$3.50 price.
