BISHAMON Ramen Dining - where you can get ramen from all over Japan

We (especially I) always welcome for Japanese cuisine -- I found a lot more to understand and learn on culture from its foods ... One thing that most of Thais recall when talking about Japanese Foods is always Ramen !!! Of course, this is another eating place for ramen lovers ... In fact I would say Japanese Lovers as there's more than Ramen here ...

As it's not only for Ramen here, I found out that this place 'BISHAMON' was found between a joint venture between Landmark Bangkok Family and Uomasa (The sushi & sashimi place in Thonglor). Talking about BISHAMON itself, this place came to Thailand years ago after its successful in Singapore ... Of course, it's time for Thais to enjoy its marvelous taste !!!

The BISHAMON word itself means 'God of Wealth' in Japanese ... it trys to imply about this BISHAMON Dining Place here that includes everything not only as 'Ramen-ya' but also variety of dishes from appertizers till rice and drinks (sake, shochu, and beer) in its contemporary & relaxing atmosphere.




Let's talk about Ramen first ... This place you can enjoy variety of ramen from 3 mains regions of Japan (Sapporo, Tokyo, and Kyushu) which means several choices of soup, levels of spiciness, and more importantly different on portion sizes !!! However, you might wonder as at the shop sign was indicated as 'Sapporo Ramen Bishamon' ... This is because the original branch was found at Sapporo, Hokkaido in Japan !!!

Now starting from its original Sapporo Ramen with 'Original Miso Ramen' 220Bht for Big portion and 150Bht for Small portion ... This is their special recipe on miso type of soup ... Of couse, as BISHAMON came from Sapporo which Sapporo is known as the birthplace of miso ramen - a ramen using miso 'fermented soy beans paste' in broth blended with oily chicken or fish broth or sometimes lard ... becoming a thick, nutty, slightly sweet with hearty feeling soup topped with butter & corn, leeks, galic, and eggs ... I was so in love with egg in this ramen bowl as it was just the right boiled indeed which combing well with its thick noodle & sliced pork (chashu) !!!




Below is Ramen from Kyushu Region which of course means also Hakata District of Fukuoka City in Kyushu (if you have heard about Hakata Ramen before). As that it always means a rich, milky, pork-bone type of broth with thin noodles ... This is Tonkotsu Kogashi Negi Ramen 230Bht -- Full with what I call 'Macho Man' feeling as it shows a strong feeling of meaty and straight feeling of thick chashu (pork) & pork-bone soup by its look and mouth feel ... even topped with full load of negi (Japanese Spring Onion), bamboo shoot, and sesame seeds besides it has only big portion size !!! Look at the colour of its broth as it's full with brownish thick colour & feeling.




Here comes the Tokyo Ramen -- The style is the most thin noodles in most light broth (normally soy-flavoured base). However, what I ordered here is called 'Assari Shio Ramen' 180Bht for Big portion and 120Bht for Small portion ... The Shio means salt so of couse the broth was made from salt in clear light soup feeling topping with chashu, bamboo shoot, green vegetable and naruto with chopped green spring onion. This seems to be the most 'feminine' feeling among all ramens !!!




Try also Rice Dish here - Chashu Don or Chashu Rice 90Bht ... a simmered sliced pork (same as ramen topping) for the one who need to fill up stomach (even in its small bowl) -- lots of pork on rice topped with sesame seed and chopped spring onion.

And not to be disappointed with Uomasa related -- I had to order at least one of sushi dish ... Chef Takahiro Fukunaga has guranteed already for his freshness and best quality ... Rainbow Roll 220Bht - inside was shrimp tempura rolled with rice then with boiled shrimp again on outside. So love its inside crispiness which combines well with outside soft texture from sushi rice & shrimp while topped with mayo & orange tobiko !!!




Another dish that you must try for its creation 'Potato Cheese' 80Bht -- sound not interesting right? But you have to imagine fried Japanese Potato Mochi Flour which was stuffed with cheese inside ... topped with brownish sweet sauce & crispy seaweed. A well-blended combination of stikiness soft with a little crispiness outside.










Don't forget to order Gyoza in Ramen-Ya right? This is not ordinary Gyoza that you know as it's Okonomiyaki Gyoza 90Bht -- another creation from BISHAMON as it's the Gyoza full with vegetable & pork stuffing but topped as if it's the Okonomiyaki -- of course it's the okonomiyaki sauce, bonito flakes, and mayonnaise. But instead of using aonori (seaweed) flakes, there's the chopped spring onion ... must try !!!




Desserts also available to serve the word 'BISHAMON' -- what we ordered here was 'Cold Red Bean with Mochi' 60Bht -- in fact it was also included green tea ice-cream & small dot of whipping cream ... I was so in love with this red bean (which full with not only sweet taste but a little of salty taste in) and soft mochi here.




Come and Enjoy its easy relaxing atmosphere here -- you will see that it will be full with Japanese Golfer and / or Japanese Family as it locates at the front of TEE OFF Driving Range ... But don't worry as this eating place is so huge and so cozy indeed with 3 types of seating including counter bar !!!
