Just like most Singaporeans, I’m constantly on the prowl for attractive bargains and my interest was certainly piqued when I got wind of Udon Kamon’s upcoming 1-for-1 promotion at Suntec City.
Here’s how it works: from 21 to 23 February, the lower priced udon comes free with every two bowls of udon ordered. With their udon dishes priced as low as $9.80++, you only have to pay $4.90++ for a filling bowl of udon. Now that’s value for money!

Opened at Eat at Seven in January, Udon Kamon serves up Sanuki udon while also offering the widest range of udon broths in Singapore. The most popular form of udon in Kagawa – often dubbed the “Udon Prefecture – these noodles are characterised by their squarish appearance and flat edges.
Their signature udon is freshly made from Japanese wheat flour, salt, and water on a daily basis and boasts a firm and chewy texture.

My favourite out of all the broths available is the shoyu-based dashi broth. In preparing the soup, premium bonito, which is directly imported from Kagoshima, is used. As the bonito has been aged for at least two years, the broth is bursting with umami.
If you are lost for choice from their dizzying array of shoyu-based udon, we recommend getting the Smoked Duck Udon ($11.80++), which features smoked duck breast air-flown from Italy!

Another crowd-pleaser is their Prawn Tonkotsu Udon ($14.80++). The tonkotsu broth is slow-cooked for eight hours and delights with its creamy texture and rich flavours. The udon is peppered with sakura ebi and tiger prawns, as well bouncy balls of house-made prawn paste.

Should you enjoy Thai cuisine, check out their Tom Yum Spicy Udon ($13.80++)! Created from a blend of central and northern Thai tom yum, the piquant broth greets your mouth with a burst of zestiness. The udon is a feast as it comes with ingredients such as prawns, mussels, asari clams, squid, straw mushrooms, and tofu! Unlike the regular udon dishes, the noodles here are served in a hot stone bowl, ensuring that the broth is kept piping hot.

For a fiery challenge, try the Magma Spicy Udon ($13.80++)! Served with tiger prawns, kampong chicken breast meat and ajitama (Japanese marinated soft-boiled egg), the udon will load you up with all the protein you need!
