Goku Raku Ramen + Cake Sense @ Paradigm Mall, Kelana Jaya

Last week, we were at Paradigm Mall for a spot of shopping. Lunchtime soon arrived and after weighing our options, we settled for Goku Raku Ramen, since Baby C loves eating ramen (and the eggs!).

We have dined before in Goku Raku Ramen's Midvalley outlet a few times, and enjoyed it. Happy that the quality and standards in the Paradigm Mall outlet is also good. We both ordered the their signature, Original Ultimate Tonkotsu (RM24.90 for large).

The ramen was topped with homemade char siew, bean sprout, spring onion, bamboo shoot, seaweed and lava egg. The char siew has greatly improved since the last time we had it and the broth which has been simmered for 17 to 30 hours is rich, creamy and so good.We drank it to the last drop.  The ramen is made fresh daily with their ramen-making machine The egg is also very good... I could have eaten another 2 easily.

Noodles have a great texture too

Perfect lava eggs. Everyone gets an egg (RM2.50) each... too good to share!

More shopping, sand art, and 3 hours later, we were ready for dessert. Sadly, Delectable Treats shop is no longer around, so we decided to try out Cake Sense. Baby C had her eye on the Oreo Cheese Cube (RM7) while I ordered the Belgian Choc Cube (RM7). You can also add on coffee/tea for an extra RM5 when ordering any cube cakes, so we went for a cappuccino and tea. They use good quality Lavazza coffee and Dilmah tea here.

The stand-out cake for me was the Oreo Cheese cube, rich and smooth. The Belgian Choc cube was pretty good too - intense, chocolatey flavour.

Hubby also ordered a Lamington (RM3.50), a square of sponge cake coated with chocolate and dessicated coconut and Choc Velvet (RM3), which was a mini chocolate roll which we thought tasted somewhat like a cake-version of Nama chocolate.

Penang Road Famous Teochew Chendul @ Paradigm Mall, Selangor

These days, we do not have to travel all the way to Penang to enjoy the famous hawker fare, with the emergence of sister outlets here in KL/PJ. Recently, a friend of ours recommended that we try out Penang Rd Famous Teochew Chendul which have opened up an outlet in Paradigm Mall - she's a Penangite and tells us that the food here is pretty authentic. 

We have walked past this outlet a few times in the past, but never stepped foot in as I was worried my kids would not be able to eat the spicy noodles. Turns out the noodles were not too spicy and the kids could enjoy it with us :)

The Famous Cendol

The outlet is pretty small, with limited tables and it is very popular so its common to see lots of people waiting for tables. We both ordered the Original Teochew Cendol (RM4.90) which arrived rather quickly. It is pretty good, creamy with a generous amount of cendol strands and red bean.

The noodles took sometime to arrive, possibly due to the limited kitchen space. We ordered the assam laksa (RM7.90) and Penang curry mee (RM7.90), both which we found quite mild tasting. The assam laksa was pretty good though a bit on the sweet side, however Baby C seemed to enjoy it very much. Penang curry mee is white when served, then you mix in the chilli paste and enjoy. I quite like the rich and creamy broth - this came with quite a nice amount of cockles, prawns, tofu puff and long beans.

I know it's a bit late now that Christmas is over, but here's some photos of the Christmas decor at Paradigm Mall. I saw on a friend's feed that they are reusing the bears but have changed their outfits to CNY ones. 

Dessert time - none other than Cielo Dolci's salted caramel gelato ;) Oh-so-good!

Followed by 7 sins of chocolate at Delectable by Su 

Such an adorable (gigantic!) bear at the entrance of the mall

Bear-y cute! :D

Price: RM25.60 for cendol + noodles.

Set Lunch @ Miraku Japanese Restaurant, Paradigm Mall, PJ

After a morning of shopping at Paradigm Mall, it was time to decide what we wanted to have for lunch. Hubby suggested Miraku Japanese Restaurant since he remembers that I mentioned wanting Japanese food a few days ago. 

Miraku, simply means a great place for customers to enjoy great food. The interior of the restaurant is very simple. After browsing the menus, we decided to order from the set lunch menu since they are pretty good value for money.

Complimentary appetizer - some sort of salmon pate roll

My lunch date :)

Hubby picked the Sashimi & Sushi Set (RM38) which comes with a sashimi platter (7-pieces), sushi platter (8-pieces), salad, chawanmushi, miso soup, and fruits. For his sashimi platter he got 3 pieces of salmon, and 2 pieces each of tuna and a local fish, reasonably thick cut and very fresh.

Fresh slices of sashimi

I ordered the Mini Chirashi and Udon set (RM32), which comes with salad, chawanmushi and fruits. I enjoyed the mini chirashi very much as the sashimi was very fresh, topped on nice Japanese rice. I found the salad to be appetizing too, but the chawanmushi (steamed egg custard) is mediocre.

The waiter asked Hubby if he would like a hot towel after his meal, and he came back with two tablets. Poured water on it and voila - your hot towel, sir ;) Pretty cool huh?

And of course, a visit to Paradigm Mall is never complete without Cielo Dolci! We ended up ordering two cups of gelato as the salted caramel with fairy dust is simply too good!

Butterscotch and salted caramel

Double salted caramel

Verdict: The set lunches are good value for money, plus the sashimi is really fresh. Would be interested to come back and try their RM59++ Sunday buffet.

Service: Good.

Price: RM82 for 2 pax.
