I found Smart Cook after having eaten at Pho Metro, which is next door. I made a mental note to come back and give ramen a try at Smart Cook.
I walked in and was asked whether I wanted takeout. Um, no. I'm by myself. I'm hungry. I want to eat in the restaurant.
I was promptly seated and given a couple of menus. There was a deal on slushies, so I went with a coconut and banana one. I also ordered the shio ramen. I love ramen, so I had to give it a go here.
The problem was that I actually had to hail someone working at the restaurant to place my order. I felt like I was hailing a taxi, waving my hands up like a maniac. It was only me without any food and another customer who was chowing down.
The slushie was good. It was thick, so it took me a bit of time to suck it down.
The shio ramen was okay. Nothing to write home about, but it did cure my hunger pangs.
Perhaps I need to try the popcorn chicken or something. My review doesn't exactly jive with all the outstanding reviews. My experience was just okay.
