Though seemingly small and unassuming, actually quite impressed by this little hotel restaurant?? Situated at the ground floor of Hotel Bencoolen, this place serves simple affordable udon with a free flow salad bar. Tried their Uni Truffle Udon and loved the truffle-infused sauce! Udon was nothing to shout about (very normal, not that QQ/chewy) and the uni tasted quite bleh but the sauce really carried the dish far and wide! Topped off with explosive ikura, this was quite a satisfying meal 🤤🤤 The salad bar looked a little sad at first, but on closer inspection, there were so many fresh ingredients and sauces to choose from! Spinach and lettuce were provided as base, with other raw vegetables like corn, edamame, red/green/yellow peppers, radish, carrot, celery, beetroot, zucchini, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, kelp. But the most effort goes to their sauce, with the warm Bagna Cauda dressing (olive oil-based with other goodness), and other like Japanese plum sauce and kewpie sesame sauce. Drinks were quite decent too with water, orange juice and hot beverages like coffee and green tea (legit matcha powder based ones), and minestrone soup with croutons and fruits (green apple, orange, grapes) was available too. Definitely a very value meal for simple udon and will definitely fill you up while still leaving you feeling healthy and happy 😋😋 PSA: Burpple Set doesn’t come with the salad bar, so unless you wanna try sth that is not on their Chope set list (Oyako Salmon Udon, Seafood Carbonara Udon, Roast Beef Uni Udon, Mentai Egg Udon, Uni Truffle Udon), go for the Chope set definitely!
