Noodles House Ken: late night ramen, but be careful of drunks

The first time I visited this ramen shop was way past midnight after a tiresome day in school a couple months back and my friend brought four of us here for supper. It's rare to find a authentic ramen shop that is opened till this late at night and I was certainly quite happy to have some delicious ramen for comfort food.

My friend ordered Miso Ramen for all of us, gyozas and some Asahi. The soup was very thick and fragrant, not too salty nor oily. The ramen was thick and springy. The only misgiving was the slice of char siew which was a little on the tough side. As for the gyozas, they tasted average on its own but after dipping it in the mixture of sauces which my friend prepared, they tasted really nice!


Certainly comfort food especially in the late night when you are hungry and tired and simply have had enough of a terrible day, Noodles House Ken provided the solace that I needed. However, if you are heading here at night, do be careful especially if you are female and going about alone. When I entered the lift of Orchard Plaza to get to the car park with my friends, the lift was packed with drunk males from the many KTVs in Orchard Plaza.

To get there is a little tricky unless you are familiar with the place. As mentioned above, you could park in the carpark of Orchard Plaza (which uses the old-fashioned machines at the gantry so dont expect the EPS machine to detect your cash card). If you are walking over from Somerset MRT, after you reach OG cross the road and turn left along all the tailor shops. Walk straight and you will see Noodles House Ken on your right in a small corridor.
