Aisyeh-man Ramen

On Guard at Ajisen Ramen
Swiped from Jon ..

Wandering at One Utama on the evening of Raya eve, I ended up having dinner at Ajisen Ramen because Pick 'n Brew was closed for the holidays. I had tried the Ajisen in Singapore and Jakarta, so I was wondering about the taste of Malaysia. As I sat down, I immediately felt a tinge of regret. The service was horrible. The staff was seen scrambling about and nobody even came over to give me the menu. After managing to hail a waiter, I got hold of the menu and finally ordered. I ordered the ramen set with spicy chicken. It was quite reasonably priced considering that even the Basic Ajisen Ramen costs MYR10.90. Extra corn would cost you MYR2.00! As I was waiting for my dish, I saw a roach crawling across the floor. Quite a good size too. Another customer spotted it and requested that the waiter dispose of it. You know what? He stepped on it and gave it its last rites on a paper napkin! When my bowl finally arrived, it was sans my green tea. And I had to holler another waiter. Ugh. The ramen was weird. Not the Ajisen that I knew. But the soup was similar. After finishing my meal, I asked the owner, "What's up with your ramen?". Turns out that the ramen set uses a cheapo version of ramen and not the usual Ajisen Ramen. Bah! Cheated.
