Nadai Ramentei @ Hakata Station, Fukuoka, Japan.

As we got in early to our hotel, dumped our bags and came here for brekkie. Yeahhhh first meal in Japan is ramen!



Seems they have a breakfast ramen which is quite friendly on the wallet. No frills small shop where you order, dine and get out. We were lucky as when we got in, there was no queue, but by the time we left, there was a long queue outside. Don't worry, as usual the lines rotates quite fast.



What a delicious bowl of ramen, slurped every last bit of it. YUMMY!

SQ Flight Singapore to Fukuoka.

Took a red eye flight from Changi, Singapore to Fukuoka. As usual SQ service is top notch, always love to fly with them. Booked the menu ahead and this is what I had.



Splendid spread, hits all the spot. Been a while since I had good food on flights. Again SQ did an impeccable job. Service crew was courteous and attentive. Five stars out of 5.

Warung Pantai @ Kuta Utara, Bali, Indonesia.

Alright time for some food and beers by the beach side. I was staying around this area and we went to Warung Pantai. Nothing fancy, some nice beach bar with good food and some sea breeze.



Ordered a mee goreng, a fried rice and a seafood platter for sharing.



Awesome, perfect place to laze around during the day with nice food over some beers. Very laidback vibe. My perfect spot.

Warung Laota @ Bali, Indonesia.

Nice, sometimes after a heavy night out, we normally go for porridge for supper. This round we checked out Warung Laota at the Nusa Dua branch(they have 3 outlets in Bali). As you can see from their signage, they boldly proclaim HK porridge and seafood steamboat specialist. 



We ordered a few variety of porridges with some salted egg on the side. 



Some greens and omelets to balance out the diet (lol). Oh my don't forget the century egg and some youtiao.
 

Porridge was super good, I like it done this way, starchy with a nice thickness. Congee lah. Side dishes were good. It was a super comfort meal after a heavy night out drinking, proper supper food. Not too heavy and easy to go to bed later.

Suizan @ Ho Chi Minh CIty, Vietnam.

Was feeling a bit peckish, so I checked out this restaurant nearby my hotel called Suizan. Yes I know, this trip I think I had more Japanese food than local, lol.



They had this special deal set from 11am to 5 pm, so I opted for the gyu don. Quite a stealer I reckon.
As you can see from the picture below, it's quite a hearty meal. Surprisingly good and worth every penny.

The Gangs Central @ Ho Chi Minh CIty, Vietnam.

This place is a mad house, better make your reservations before hand like maybe way in advance. I was lucky as a mate of mine did the booking.



We ordered the normal pub grub food, portions were nice and they have a nice variety of menus.




This place is packed for a reason. People come here just to drink, eat and enjoy the live band shows plus dj sessions. The crowd is just amazing here, people would dance on the chairs and table as well. Good vibes. Definitely a must go if you're in HCM.

Marukame Udon @ Ho Chi Minh CIty, Vietnam.

I walked past by this packed restaurant a few times and I didn't managed to check it out the last time I was here in Vietnam. This trip  I made it a point to eat here.



As usual the place had a queue but the turnover was fast. Menu is simple and they have English translation as well. I ordered the beef udon as usual and with an onsen egg.


Nicely done, udon was perfect, just the way I like it, chewy and springy. Beef was good and portions were generous. Broth was comforting. I slurped down the entire bowl, beautiful!
