Not my first time to Tamoya. I had been to the first outlet at Liang Court earlier this year. After looking at the menu, I decided to try the Curry Chicken Udon. As what the sign says "please wait to be seated', I stood outside for like mintues before realising that no service crew attempted to serve me. Not wanting to look like an idiot, I walked straight to the cashier and asked if I should order from her. She pointed to the front counter when there is a chef cooking the udon. 'Order from there' was what she told me. Feeling puzzled, I walked to where the chef was and asked if I should order from him. "Yes" was his answer. So here's the ordering system at Tamoya:
They have this self-service system:
1. Order (tell the chefs at the counter what you want)
2. Collect your noodle and select the fried items ( if you want any)
3. Proceed to cashie
4. Add your own toppings or sauces at the nearby counter
My suggestion to Tamoya could be just state these instructions and placed it at the entrance. It does help to orientate the customers.
Enough said of the situation, I ordered the Curry Udon with chicken as well as a croquette. Okay, I had to say, I would prefer the udon in soup based rather than the curry. But trust me, the udon is quite nice and you can easily slurp into your mouth. The croquette was normal and I wished I had ordered the pumpkin tempura instead. Well, Tamoya is definitely on my list to return for more Authentic Japanese food.
