Keisuke Ebi Ramen

The newspaper clippings outside this ramen restaurant at itadakimasu @ Parco Marina says the ramen here is different. Indeed, the stock here is made of prawns not the usual pork. So our interest was intrigued and in we went! We were greeted with a prawnish smell the moment we stepped into the restaurant.

We wanted to try the crab stock ramen as it was season limited. But the photo for this special ramen is so yucky, we decided against it. i think even i could have taken a nicer photo! So, we ordered the Ebi Ramen Special each instead.

Why is it called Special? Cos it has all the toppings in this bowl of ramen. And the toppings are really not your typical ramen toppings. There's chicken, prawn wanton, ajitsuke tamago and a greenish bamboo-looking vegetable. On top of that, there's orange peel (the orangey thingy that's on top the wanton) and some fine red thread-like thing. 

The orange peel is really interesting. i've not eaten orange peel with ramen before. It adds a tangy twist to the prawn stock. The soup is not bad but a tad too salty.
