Just Acia (Downtown East)

Had went there for first time on a weekday dinner with friends. I was pleasantly surprised to see a variety of free flow scoops for ice cream and drinks to go along with set meals at affordable prices. The only flaw is, the additional value set meals are not stated on the menu and the order form and we had to ask the waiter for clarification.

The drinks and ice cream were fantastic and the ramen I had ordered came along with fried chicken pieces and kimchi. The quantity of ramen was pretty huge and filling. The chicken meat was a tad tough though.Waiting time for food is less than 10 minutes and acceptable even though most of the tables are occupied with customers.

I do not mind going there again next time. It is definitely must-go place for people who love free flow drinks and ice cream while chatting with friends or reading own articles.

For around $10 per person, you get a selection of Jap/Korean/Asian food like rice and noodles, plus the perk of free-flow ice-cream and soft drinks!

Seems like a good deal, only that I am not one who will try to get myself sugar high on unhealthy sweet drinks. Free-flow plain water at other establishments works fine for me. The ice-cream served is the cheap kind, of course it's a buffet, and at $10 I don't expect much. But, why would I want to try to stuff my stomach with cheap ice-cream?

Food wise, it's the usual food court standard. So like instead of paying say $6 for salmon teriyaki rice in a food court, you pay $13 for it to come with free flow drinks and ice-cream, and for someone to serve it to you.

The food is all edible but nothing tasty. I suspect there's just a fair deal of MSG used. But it's just my guess. Definitely not a place I would wanna visit, unless I am walking past, feeling hungry, don't feel like walking anymore and don't feel like spending too much money.

If you like drinking sweet drinks and eating cheap ice-cream... why not, it's quite a good deal for that.
