		<description><![CDATA[Hi Alex!

Thanks for dropping by! Loved that you used the word &quot;jizz&quot; and shio-k! haha. I think this is one of the most articulate comments ever written on my blog. Thank you for taking the time to write it.

I think you just re-ignited my appetite for ramen and a trip to Noodle House Ken is in order.

So what are you fishing? Love to fish but never really have the chance to do it in Singapore.

Hope you have a great time and land a big one.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[During my recent summer break (I&#039;m studying in Perth now), I came home to Singapore and got introduced to the wonders of ramen by my friends. It all started out at Ken noodle house before I became crazy for ramen. I ventured to Santouka, Ippudo, the lousy one at paragons basement, the lousy one at ions basement, and a couple others.

This is all I have to say.

Ken noodle hands down is the best. Shio butter makes me *jizz*, and the special cold ramen is just so slurpalicious. 

The shio&#039;s broth is so simple yet elegant with all the usual ingredients and lots of leek and lots of corn to make it somewhat a tad sweet-er and with a slab of butter thrown in.... Shio-k butter mmmhmm. Grind as much sesame seeds as you can and you&#039;ll be begging for me. Not kidding. Though it&#039;s been said that I get a little to over excited and passionate over my food (and exaggerated when it comes to describing the shiokness).

The noodles reigns king too. Wonderful chewy tasty sexified noodles. I read somewhere its imported from japan from a small cottage industry and i LOVE it. The moment I strike lottery here, its a flight back home for the weekend straight to my favourite ramen-ya, then to my girlfriend! haha kidding! but seriously.

Good day!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Will do.  I&#039;m trying to plan a trip to Japan where I can just go nuts and eat like crazy.

Also, I made a blog post for you in my own blog, telling my very very VERY few readers to check you out.  Haha!

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Ryan

Thank you for your kind words, it&#039;s really encouraging to get comments like yours.

I&#039;ve never attempted to cook ramen, but I&#039;ll let you know if I see any recipes.

My advice is to just eat as much ramen as you can. I&#039;m quite new to ramen but it also makes it exciting as there are so many different styles to try!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just wanted to let you know that this is a VERY well constructed blog.  I could learn a thing or two.  

I found your blog while doing a Google Image search for Japanese Styles of Ramen, and what linked me here was your stunningly hi-rez photo of the Hakata Ramen at the top of this page.  Amazing.

I&#039;m watching you now, as I&#039;m also a lover of food, and I&#039;d really appreciate any advice or a recipe or two so that I may attempt to make my own Hakata Style Ramen at home.

Thanks, and keep up the good work.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey Zee

And I found your blog too!

Was great meeting you last night. Thought it was funny that none of the dedicated food bloggers took any pictures of the food! Are you going to post about the dinner?

What other kind of food do you like?]]></description>
