AJISEN RAMEN

Ajisen Ramen. A relatively large food chain specializing in Japanese Ramen in Singapore.

A filling dish filled with what else but Ramen.

A few disappointing factors came up, in comparison to my last few visits there.
A friend and I happened to drop by Ajisen Ramen @ Junction 8 Bishan. Being around lunch hour, it was a suprise that the outlet was relatively empty. I suppose the first thing that got to me first was that the tables were arranged in a way that made it feel so squeezy. About a 20cm gap between each set of tables. If that is the way they were going about saving space, it is no wonder the crowds were so dwindeld during Peak Period on a Saturday.

The 2nd Point was a mother and daughter were seated at a table two sets away from us. Being a young child the girl spilled ice lemon tea. With all the waiters and waitresses walking around, it was suprising that no one offered to help or to even bring a towel. They only got to getting a towel when the customer asked for it. Even then, no one offered to give a change of location or chair.

The 3rd point was after the customer @ the table had left. No one bothered to wipe the chair dry or to change chairs or to even put a sign. Even after the previous customer had so kindly reminded a waiter that the chair was wet. This leading to the next customer not being able to get the table, and having to squeeze in a table right next to us.

Perhaps the Ajisen Ramen Branch at Bishan might want to re-organise their staff and the way things are done.
the score:
5/10
