Heavy Rain

We were raining heavily during dinner. Not emotionally but literally.

We took a long time deliberating our dinner options when we were suddenly reminded of Ajisen Ramen, located at our second home. This place was recommended by otousan some time back and it was on our KIV list.

Trust us to not pay attention to the menu. Following otousan's recommendations we ordered their Volcano Ramen - only to notice that the dish was rated '4 chilis'. A quick look and preventative measures presented itself in the form of Cold Ocha (refillable).

A lovely large bowl was placed in front of us, with a very large piece of serviette paper and disposable chopsticks. Disposable chopsticks never fail to remind us of Osaka, and we go into a slight narcoleptic trance as we split the chopsticks *snap*. Heh.

The first bite into our meal and we knew the weather forecast, "Shit..."

It started raining. Heavily. While we were in full office wear, tie and jacket inclusive. Our hair started wilting under all the weight of that water.

Good thing the serviette was large and absorbant. And the ocha ice-cold. Man, we're terrible with spicy food. Still, the Volcano was filling, the ramen and soup of a rather good texture and consistency.

When the bill came it was almost the same price as a Carl's Jr meal - and we once again cursed ourselves for not paying attention to the menu. Still, like Carl's Jr, for the price we paid it was filling and well worth it.

Savante: Wouldn't want to imagine the type of runs that would lead to the term 'Heavy Rain'!

Jason: In 1 Utama.

Aik Yong: Precisely!

QR: Probably due to all them oats you've been eating? :D

Adrien: Throat KO again!

Henry: Chilli. Wasabi and Dijon mustard doesn't scare us. Bell peppers ok. Jalapeno will also start the rain dance. But it's just chilli.
