My Experience At Changi YumCha Restaurant

[Food Review]

YumCha restaurant is located inside this building (left photo), it's near this red building over here. (right photo)

We had quite a difficulty looking for the restaurant as it's located at a corner. But nevertheless, thanks to Damien (UncleTehPeng) good sense of direction, we manage to find it! Hahaha!

Ambiance of the restaurant is good. To be honest, I've never been to any Yum Cha restaurant before. The one located at Changi Business Park just open recently, and I heard from my friends that this restaurant's concept at  is slightly different as compared to the one at Chinatown.

FIRST UP ON THE MENU

I really really like the custard bun! So awesome! It's best served and eaten while its hot! Peeled open the custard bun and the filling flows out like there's no tomorrow! Hahaha!

Did you know at the Changi outlet, you can place your order using the iPad?! Super awesome! Me and Damien loved the custard bun so much we ordered more of it! Hahaha!

Prawn & Mango Sesame Fritter
Love the combination of prawn and mango, and this is the first time I had mango served hot. The sesame fritters gave it an extra "something" to it!

I'm allergic to seafood but to my surprise, I didn't have any allergies acting up when I had that, so yea! PLUS POINTS!!!

Baked Mini Tarts
Nothing really special, but, egg tarts makes me happy, at YumCha, it comes in bite sized! ♥

Crispy Red Bean Paste with Banana
Crispy on the outside and soft in the inside, the first bite will taste like red bean and then banana thereafter. I don't know, maybe its just me. I love everything that is fried and crispy! Hahaha!

Crispy Vegetable Spring Roll
Its super crispy on the outside and the vegetables wrapped inside is not those soggy soggy kind like you buy from elsewhere.

HERE COMES THE MAIN LEAD

***TAKE NOTE***
For the H.K. Roast Menu, they only serve with Roast Duck, Char Siew and Roasted Pork, and its only available at the Changi outlet.

Photo above is just for illustration purpose only. Do check with the staff before ordering. :)

AS FOR THE MAIN COURSE

We had century egg and pork congee, and beef brisket noodle. For everyone who loves beef, you should try the beef brisket noodles. For me, I didn't like it alot because the taste of the beef from the soup is too strong. But the beef is very tender though...

For desserts, we had a few but my personal favorites would be the Pomelo Sago in Mango Juice, and Chinese Herbal Jelly.

Ramen Champion @ Great World City

[Sponsored Event]

Was invited over to the newly opened Ramen Champion at Great World City to try out the old and new ramen that they have over there.

Selfie before the food is being served!

First on the table was Okonomiyaki Gyoza with Bonito flakes. (5 pcs) $5.80
Not as salty as compared to the one at Bugis+. I personally prefer the gyozo without the bonito flakes though. Just my opinion though.

Mentaiko Gyoza (5 pcs) $5.80
Out of the 2 gyoza, I prefer this one!!! I love the mentaiko seasoning on top of the gyoza, it tastes different and slightly nicer than the okonomiyaki one.

Tori Karaage - $4.80
Chicken is my best friend, I can't live without chicken! Tori Karaage is one of my favorite at Ramen Champion! It is best served when hot, when you bite it, the juice just flows out of the chicken! Yumms! ♥

Sapporo Miso Special Ramen $14.80                        Special Tonkotsu Ramen $16.50

Pork and Vegetable Ramen $16                            Special Sukiyaki Ramen $16

Out of the 4 ramen that I've tasted, my favorite would definitely be Sapporo Miso Special Ramen from Bishamon Zero. Maybe because I like eggs that are soft boiled rather than hard boiled. So yea!

I love the Sapporo Miso Special Ramen's miso soup, its so tasty not forgetting they added chilli by the side, so if you want it a tad more spicy you can just mix with it. 

Spicy Chicken (3 pcs) $5
I LOVE THIS! I can't stop eating it! It tastes uber awesome when you squeeze the lemon onto it. It will have a sour and yet spicy taste, its definitely worth the price paying for. I can't wait to head back to Ramen Champion to have this again! ^.^

First, we had Iced Matcha Latte. Premium Matcha powder blended with softserve and milk. It's rather tasty and it doesn't taste completely like Matcha!!! This is one of the restaurant's signature drink!!!

Then, we were served with the food! Its mostly in seafood, so I can only taste like a very small portion of it. (I'm allergic to seafood :/)

BUT THAT ASIDE!!!
I really love the salmon!!! I don't know why for some reason I can eat Salmon, eventhough its considered seafood too. IDK IM WEIRD!!!
