My first time in Ajisen. Surprised by how fast our food was served as it was full house with a queue outside. We order the fried pork ramen, Volcano Ramen and Teriyaki Chicken Don.
Soup base was tasty and just right without the starchiness or oiliness found in other Ramen. However, the fried pork was too salty hence you got to eat it with the Ramen to blend the taste. Perhaps it was made so that you have to eat it that way. Serving was big and definitely value for the money.
I only tried 1 piece of chicken for the Teriyaki Chicken Don. The chicken was tender and chewy though like the pork, salty. I did not try the Volcano Ramen but I thought it looks very spicy to me.
Menu for dessert was very extensive and we were spoilt for choice regarding which to order. I ordered the Strawberry Parfett. Tried some of the Mango-don't-know-whats-the-name (looks like mango ice). Desserts looks nice but tasted average. Strawberry Parfett was great and recommended though the serving was too big and will be perfect for 2 persons. Mango was sour.. way too sour to eat alone. You will have to eat with the ice shavings to reduce the sour-ness.
But I would say I won't want to patron Ajisen frequently as the food tend to the salty side and there wasn't anything special about the desserts either. Everything was just average. But it will be a good place for small group outing as they don't seem to have space for big groups.
Edited on : 1/05/08 Went back there the 2nd time last week and order some other side dishes like Prawn Mayo, Fried chicken, Pork and Cabbage Omelette, Beef with Asparagus, Chasu and some other dishes. We were quite disappointed as not only the portion was small for most of the side dishes (those in a set) the taste was below average except for the prawn mayo and the Omelette.
Mango for the dessert this time, was too "old" totally spoiling the dessert. Ice cream looks like its been out in the air for too long and melting.
The service crew who served us asked us to speak chinese cause she did not understand English while the other service crew ask us to explain what is 辣椒in English.

Ajisen Ramen, “The best Ramen in Singapore”, or so they claimed. Started in November 1997, Ajisen opened the first Ramen shop at Bugis Junction. Ajisen Ramen is now the largest Ramen chain in Singapore, with a total of 12 outlets in Singapore in these 9 years.
“ There is something peculiar about Ajisen Ramen and it’s all in the soup. Their Ramen’s Tonkotsu soup can help to prevent aging!
The Japanese Society of Nutrition & Food Science announced in a general meeting, “The intake of collagen contained in the bones and cartilage, etc prevents aging.” Collagen is a protein, mainly found in the skin, tendon, bone, cartilage and other connective tissues. This protein is the essence of life because it easily makes up one third of the 60 trillion body cells. And our Tonkotsu soup has lots of collagen!
What is health without taste? A feature of Kumamoto Ramen is Senmiyu; a rich brown sauce that accompanies the fair Tonkotsu soup. Our unique culinary methods ensure that all the flavors are sealed into the sauce. In fact, Ajisen guarantee that your taste-buds will be bowled over by their Tonkotsu/Senmiyu combination! “
Went to meet my mom for dinner at IMM after Arnold’s celebration, at first wanted to go Secret Recipe for dinner, cos i want to eat their desserts, but my mom wanted to eat ramen, to savour that time she went to Japan and had ramen. Although there was a few Japanese restaurants around, we settled on Ajisen since my mom wanted ramen. The restaurant was packed fully, but there was still space for two-seaters. We took a while to decide on the ramen, and made our orders, suprisingly the ramen came quite fast despite many patrons in the restaurant, mayb its very easy to cook ramen : )
Ramen cost 10 bucks each, but you have the raman set, which consist of a ramen, side dish, and a drink for $13.80. We chose the crayfish ramen (voted most popular), and the soft ribs ramen
Crayfish Ramen
The crayfish ramen was quite special, the crayfish came with a sweet-spicy sauce. Ramen had egg, crayfish of cos, and mushroom. The ramen soup was quite delicious, but i found it too salty, had to drink tons of water after finishing the ramen.
Soft ribs Ramen
Actually every ramen is the same except for the main ingredient that comes with it, for this one is soft pork ribs, the ribs was managed rather well-balance, very chewy. My mom commented that the ramen in Japan was nicer, the noodle was not so thick, much thinner there : )
Chicken cutlet that comes with the ramen set
The sauce for the chicken was nice, but the chicken was a tad too small, o well after all this is the compliment set.
Fried prawn which also come with the ramen set
Fried prawn in Japanese restaurants was always nice, no complains
Simple dinner at Ajisen total bill was $32.49, not very expensive i guess, for the set came with a ramen, side dish and drink. But the quality of the side dishes can be improve i guess, they are not really worth it for the extra $3.80? But then again $3.80 for a side dish and drink, you can’t really complain can you?
