I have eaten the last few times I walked past Cook Mee at Raffles Exchange, and reminded myself to try this another day. It is by the same people behind Wheat – at B1 of One Raffles Place and Raffles City Shopping Centre, known for its Japanese-inspired soba noodles, brown rice and salad. There were a few people when I visited for late dinner, and more continued to stream in after. Ordered its $9.90 Soupermen as the dry tossed ramen comes with a separate bowl of spicy or non-spicy double-boiled chicken- and pork-based soup. I can choose ingredients for my soup and my choice was prawns and white clams over diced salmon, mussels and shredded chicken as well as edamame, mushroom and tofu (other choices are beansprouts, broccoli, cabbage, corn kernel, kimchi, leek and seaweed). The springy ramen were topped with beansprouts, shredded cucumber, sous vide egg and sesame seeds. Could neither rave about the bland soup and white clams nor fault the succulent prawns and mushrooms.
