Tastebud : Winner House (5th and last time)

18 October 2025

Today, we had dinner at my favourite Chinese restaurant and I got the news that the owner had sold his business. The staff and menu will be replaced by end of October. It was very sad to hear it. I thought the staff will stay on but they have to look for another workplace. I enjoy talking to their staff. One of them is especially friendly and is one of my reasons that I love coming back. I wonder if the name of the restaurant will be changed too.

We received our complimentary shrimp chips - 3 times as our main meal had not arrived. Really nice of them as I enjoy my shrimp chips. Got fried springrolls too. I did not take any photos of the shrimp chips and springrolls but you can see in this post when we were there the 3rd time

Today, we had brine lamb 238kr and garlic pak choy 158kr. Total 434kr including a Cola can 38kr. I think I have tried most of the main meals in the menu. We did not try any fish or seafood options as my boyfriend don't enjoy them. We had rice and a refill too. Rice is included. Let's see how the new owner prices the food and if they will offer complimentary starters and dessert.



We received complimentary dessert too. This time, we received a small plate of fruits with honeymelon and grapes. Complimentary dessert - a small bowl of red bean syrup, a small cup of jasmine tea, fried bread with custard sauce and a fortune cookie. I don't tip in any restaurants but I tip in this restaurant as we always receive more than we ordered. Today's goodbye to them include a wish for them to have a smooth future ahead.

Tastebud : Tan Tan Dan

9 October 2025

Japanese noodles for dinner today. The restaurant is really small and it can accommodate 6 guests. So, the guests are expected to leave when the food is finished. Most customers do take-away. No toilet here so I did not take any water. I suppose the owner lives nearby to be able to use a toilet.



Delicious ramen. I had dry noodles with roasted duck slices 198kr and my friend had dry noodles with pork crumbles 168kr. Both were so good! We added a smoked egg 20kr and a rice ball 20kr. I don't mind coming here again to have the ramen. Yummy! My friend had their fuzzy drink (called Tan Tan Dan cola) that is supposed to have lemon taste but I tasted nothing. 


My rice ball is cute. It has almost a love shape. There is an instruction on how to eat the rice ball. One adds it into the broth after the noodle is finished to absorb the rest of the broth.
