Friday, November 17, 2006 [[ after the exams]] I have been craving for Miharu Ramen for the entire week! All thanks to J who told me about how P and A went to eat the ramen twice in a week. It got me thinking about the springy ramen noodles and the richly flavoured soup stock. And last evening, J and I made our way to Miharu to satisfy our ramen craving. (Yup the both of us are THAT crazy over ramen..or at least this one in particular) I tried the special sho-yu one this time while J had the sho-yu one. If you had to choose between the two, please take the special sho-yu one. It's definitely much tastier. The difference- is the complexity and intensity of flavours. It's rather richly flavoured- more so than the shio(salt) one that I had the last time, but not as overpowering as the miso one(I dont really like the miso one). Taking a sip of the soup already sent me to a state of euphoria. It's really that powerful. I should think that this one is better than the shio one though the shio comes to a close second. Why is this better? Think about it this way: the shio one is like eating vanilla ice cream while the special sho-yu one is like eating vanilla bean ice cream.  Special sho-yu ramen from Miharu After our bowl of ramen, J was contemplating having the second one. Goodness. But we decided to save our stomachs for our favourite dessert place: Canele Patisserie. I only intend to get a cake to share. But everytime I step into this place, I know I can't resist the urge of trying out more cakes. Hence, we ordered Jupiter and Cafe Noix. This place beats The Chocolate Factory anytime. Look at Jupiter: It's absolutely gorgeous. It really does live to its name with its dome shaped chocolate "cover". The fudge with infused with some kind of fruit liquer(i think) and you can't deny the quality of the chocolate used. The inside is a mix of passionfruit, almonds and of course, more chocolate. This is one where the taste is even better than it looks. The cafe noix was not bad. Rich and aromatic coffee was used to flavour the cream. There are namely 3 layers: the first is the coffee cream, the next is chocolate sponge cake and the last is nougatine.I much prefer the Le Royale that I had last time because I'm just not a big fan of cream- in any form. 
Cafe Noix After our desserts, we walked around MS but we couldnt find The Patissier( the one which SY wrote about on her blog). So after walking around and picking out the restaurants that we would like to try the next time, we headed to Wine Hut to chill. =) What a satisfying day! I can't wait for more ramen and dessert days.
