Le Shrimp Ramen 乐虾拉面家 (Changi Airport T3)

Handmade ebiko prawn paste, succulent prawn dumplings and fresh big prawns with the option of 3 different noodle types.

Prior to this, I had not tried Le Shrimp Ramen. However, I have walked past it a couple of times, checked their menu out online, scoured through pictures on instagram, and man — I always wonder how can I crave something without having tried it before. In a bid to satisfy my craving, I went to Le Shrimp Ramen's outlet at Terminal 3, where I tried their Le Shrimp Signature Trio Shrimp Ramen. The handmade ebiko prawn paste was a delight, juicy yet firm at the same time. The prawn dumplings were huge and juicy, stuffed with filling. The prawns (unfortunately, not deshelled) were freshy and plump, and while shelled, gave that juiciness when you suck the head, if you suck the head. Chinese ramen noodles I opted for had texture was that was decent, and was a good pairing with the broth. The broth, the champion of the meal, was delectable. I loved how you can definitely taste the prawn stock, yet, the texture of the broth was slightly thicker than your usual prawn soup outside, matching the one's expectation of a ramen-like broth here. There was a flavourful sweetness to the soup as well, which I enjoyed. I desired a spicier kick in the soup, so I asked for chilli padi to see how it would've been if added. Sadly, they do not serve chilli padi there. I would have appreciated that option though. Nonetheless, it was a delicious bowl of prawn ramen — do manage price expectations because it is definitely fashioned as a more 'atas' prawn noodles, and has apparent differences especially with respect to the broth.

I enjoyed the prawn dumplings for what they were as they were huge and juicy in the sauce but I did feel like the sauce could do with a spicier kick,because it really was not spicy. I liked the vinegar nodes to the sauce nonetheless.

Ordered the ramen with prawn dumplings ($14.50++) and the ebiko prawn paste ($15.50++). Broth was rich with prawn flavour and both dumplings and ebiko balls were delicious. However, it can get jelat after awhile. Highly recommend to complete your meal (additional $3.40) for a side and drink. Apple black tea was tasty but I think might be better to opt for the vinegar drink to cut the richness of the broth. Overall damage was about 40++ for 2 pax. Pretty reasonable and would return again (tho not so soon).

Deliciously thick and creamy shrimp broth is to die for. The soup had a creamy wok hey flavour, probably from frying the cabbage. Dumplings were springy and QQ. We added on noodles ($1.20) and shared it between the both of us. We also added on century egg tofu and a drink ($3.40). Service was also impeccable and their staff were really attentive. Will definitely be back to try the other noods!!

Ebiko Prawn Paste Shrimp Ramen ($13.90) & Ebiko Prawn Paste w Chili Vinaigrette Ramen ($11.90) - Can probably describe this as atas Hae Mee but not complaining about it 😂 The broth was super thick and rich, definitely a must-try for all prawn lovers! Added the tonkotsu broth for the dry ramen and it was amazing too. But heads up, don't be expecting a typical Japanese Ramen, this was definitely more Chinese influenced.

This was different from the chili vinaigrette dry ramen in their menu. Still spicy but no strong spices and no vinegar. It was really good. I much prefer this to the vinaigrette one. The best thing was that it came with a bowl of piping hot shrimp broth. It was much thicker and packed a bigger stronger punch than the broth in their soup version. I couldn’t get enough of it. Amazing. They need to make this a regular item in their menu. Came with 2 fresh prawns, 3 ebiko prawn paste balls and 2 prawn dumplings.
