LeNu is part of the Paradise Group of companies, and specialized in beef noodles. Their restaurant at VivoCity very much looks like a Japanese ramen shop, and the noodles they serve tend to have some semblance of Japanese ramen too.
To order, you just need to tick the item and write the quantity of it in the order slip. It is pretty straight forward. After that, go to the cashier and make a payment for your order. Here is pay before you eat.
I ordered their braised beef combination noodle. Well, the name is a bit strange in English, but that is what is listed in their menu. Basically it is egg noodle in beef broth, with wagyu beef, tendon and the "muscle". I don't know what is the proper English name for that "muscle". In the menu, it is listed as "shank".
The beef portion was quite tiny, if you don't look for it, you might not find it. The tendon portion was reasonable, a piece or two. The 'muscle' portion was the most generous, there were quite a number of pieces. The taste was pretty good. You could still 'feel' the toughness of the muscle, but then it would breakdown easily in your mouth. You don't have to worry that you need to chew forever to make it swallow-able.
For every main, if you top-up $3.50, you could get a side dish and a can of soft drink.
I chose the century egg tofu as my side. It was a cold dish. The presentation was good, like a piece of art. Taste-wise, it was a bit bland, as the tofu basically had no taste, while the century egg's taste came mainly from its yoke, which was kind of a bit heavy for me.
Overall I think LeNu serves reasonably good beef noodle at a competitive price, especially considering it is in a busy shopping center.
