OMU - Japanese Omurice Restaurant Singapore at Suntec City Mall

ABBEY: The line is so long the first time we tried to eat at Omu. So we headed before the clock strikes noon. No queue. 

I ordered curry sauce omurice with chicken cutlets - lava style (yes the one where the runny scrambled egg flows to the plate once it’s cut). The curry sauce is thick and has lots of flavor. However the breading of chicken cutlets has a little burnt taste and the still can see the raw batter inside.

WILL: Omu is a big craze of 2017 and we are a year late. Apologies for that readers. We made a stop at Omu located at Suntec City. 

There are two choices. Ordinary and "Lava" Style. I chose the ordinary and Abbey got the other. The egg is creamy even it is not "Lava Style". My meal comes with (of course white sauce) cream sauce, spinach, salmon and corn. The sauce is delightfully rich. The salmon cooked with consistency. Half of this plate definitely will fill up your tummy! Yup, this is a heavy meal! 

Go at Omu Rice is always packed with diners on lunch and dinner. Be aware of the timing. :)

VERDICT 
ABBEY: Wow, this is another version of Wilma’s pasta: cooked pasta with gourmet tuyo and cherry tomatoes. This is delicious and easy to cook. 

I always go for a second serving; carb-overload. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Budae Jjigae (Army Stew)

VERDICT
WILL: Abbey and I achieved another milestone financially and to celebrate that Abbey prepared Budae Jjigae as our dinner (because we miss the Budae Jjigae of Gangnam Wings). 

Abbey, made a simple and yet tummy-filling Korean Army Stew even the ingredients are not that much. 

The kimchi blended well with the soup and spiciness just gave another punch of flavour. Don't ever-ever skip rice cake on this meal! 

Happy eating.
