Shokudo - Pasta with a Japanese Twist...

There seems to be a sudden craze over japanese pasta and theFadboy decided to check out Shokudo @ Citylink... where they serve both Japanese Pasta and Pizza.


The decor of the place was not anything to shout about but the waiter and waitresses are very friendly and helpful. Our waitress seems like she jumped out of a Japanese comic, so eager to please and so willing to recommend.


I ordered the salmon/salmon roe pasta, I felt that it was too dry. Although the salmon was big and tasty, i just didnt feel the "japanese" in this pasta...


With a japanese style deep-fried calamari (that came with a wasabi mayo sauce), well, this was a disaster... the calamari felt like rubber and was difficult to chew... and for a few miserable pieces it was like 8bucks.. definitely not worth the money...

and my date had a bacon japanese pasta... as for the this, it really tasted like any carbonara that from pasta mania. There was nothing special about it, except for its name..


I must say that it was a really disappointing trip. Apart from the excellent service that was provided, there is nothing left to praise about the place. Perhaps the next time I should try Waraku Pasta instead.

In case i was being bias, this is another review that i got from Yum.sg.

I might sound really mean but i felt that the $55 that i paid would have been better donated to NKF. I do not recommend that anyone visits this place, unless you wish to be proven wrong..

This not recommended place was visited by theFadboy (don't sue me!)

Cool review, dare to say NO. I hope the fadboy didn't lose points from his date from that less than par encounter with Shokudo.
