Original Tonkotsu Ramen at Menya Musashi Jalan P.Ramlee KL

Just had this yesterday and can't wait to share it with you guys! Menya Musashi, a restaurant that is selling ramen which I've heard rave reviews from the fellow KL food bloggers. 

Honestly speaking, I have never try out authentic original tonkotsu broth. Finally we make time out from our tight schedule.  

There are three branches in the KL city. The first branch is located in One Utama shopping mall, this second branch is located along Jalan P.Ramlee, the newly open located in The Intermark. Lol to myself, stayed in DoubleTree Hilton Intermark for five days but never figured out this. 

We went to the one located in Jalan P.Ramlee. Right before this, we went to One Utama and we glanced through their menu, we realized that both menu from the same restaurant priced differently. The ramen selling in One Utama is more pricey than this. I wonder why. Perhaps the one selling there is chicken broth? Cz I heard that earlier ago this is a Halal restaurant but later on they have change to Non-Halal already. 

Thanks to Mr. Yeap who brought me here. Was craving for authentic tonkotsu for so long already. 

Kanzan Ramen with Fish and Pork Brend  RM21

Slow cook 100% Pork bone broth mix with Musashi's original fish soup stock powder. It serves with 2pcs of roasted pork, Ajitama 1pc, Spring Onion and Black Fungus.

 This ramen serves with original broth with fish soup stock powder. I don't really like this because the stock powder makes the broth over salty and to me is like having soup with full of MSG flavouring. As the essence of ramen is the soup but you can't afford to take much because the powder makes you feel so thirsty. 

Original Tonkotsu Ajitama Ramen RM19

Slow cook 100% Pork bone broth, Musashi's original soup. It serves with 1pc of roasted pork, Ajitama 1pc, Spring Onion and Black Fungus.

I prefer this much more than the earlier one. I simply love my first sip of the broth. It is so rich and flavourful with the right texture of ramen served which is springy and smooth. This original tonkotsu doesn't give you the MSG kind of taste. 

Simply love the dinner that we had yesterday. Not forget to mention, I love the ambience as well. 

We ordered two side dishes which is 3pcs of Gyoza and Teriyaki Pork Rice. Each priced at RM5. Never expected it will be this cheap! I mean based on the kind of restaurant that we dine in. 

All priced at RM5 each. 

I think the Teriyaki Pork Rice tasted not bad but he would prefer if the rice served with more teriyaki sauce. On top of that, he thinks that the pork is too rough and rice is slightly over cooked as it is quite sticky. 

For Gyoza, it is juicy and we loved it. 

The very seducing roasted pork. 

Opps! Over cooked Ajitama! Is a big no-no for ramen restaurant. 

Sadly to say they don't have the runny yolk as what we expected. 

Although he finish the bowl but he still think that Marutama Ramen in Fahrenheit 88 is the best. Indeed, many people said so. He would ranked this after Marutama. Most probably due to the overcooked Ajitama.

But one thing to remark is the efficiency and friendliness of the servers in Menya Musashi. 

I can't finish them as I thought that the entire soup is full of MSG. Anyway, if you intend to try it out, would strongly recommend you to go for their Original Tonkotsu. 

Besides this, they have Spicy Ramen, Miso Ramen, Musashi Garlic Black and Black Sesame TanTan Mee as well.

Appreciate for bringing me practically everywhere to eat. 

Is only walking distance from the restaurant to KLCC. 

Right at the back is KL Tower already. Prime location so get ready to pay for parking fee with at least RM5. 

Located along Jalan P.Ramlee.

OmNomNom in Seoul Part 1

Hello guys is time to back to the blog! This few days rotten at home enjoy my stress free life before the last semester begins. Yet feeling quite unwell lately due to fever, sore throat, cough..everything come at the same time la! So rest at home is the best choice. :-)

Since I'm so free I shouldn't neglect my blog if not soon I will become lazier and abandoned this site already! *sit up and blog*

Has been a very long long time didn't visit to the newly open restaurant in Penang so don't really know what's the new trend in the town. New cafes and restaurants in Penang these days are growing like mushroom. Just been away for two months and everything changes. 

Since I have been away from Penang and living in Seoul for 5 weeks, so might as well blog about food in Korea. Anyway 4 weeks is over, I don't really remember the name exactly for the food that I posted below. Anyway just enjoy the pretty pictures will do la, you will realized food in Korea is not just about Kimchi! ^^

Part 1 of food post would be most likely around Hoegi Subway Station. Hoegi is somewhere near to Kyung Hee University, since we studying here so most of the time exploring food around. These are some of the food that taken throughout that month. 

*****

NaengMyeon. The one and only NaengMyeon that I took in Korea. I still can't accept taking the noodles in cold soup and it is so chewy but this shop is frequently visited by the locals. Always has long queue outside the shop. One bowl of this cost RM15.

Bibimbap from the same shop. In Korea, if there is other options, I will try to avoid bibimbap and NaengMyeon because both are not my liking! Lol..

The 便当 chicken mayo bento! Is the cheapest meal around the area. This meal cost RM8. Haha..but this chicken mayo really nice..I guessed all of us miss this very much!

I love this! Very huge pork cutlet with cheese fillings! But..this picture isn't serve with cheese, if not mistaken, this is with pumpkin fillings. I prefer cheese as it is salty compared to pumpkin tasted sweet. One plate of this cost RM15 but it is very full then. 

Our university cafeteria food. Not really remember the price but food in cafeteria is relatively cheap. If not mistaken this one cost RM10.50. I was craving for traditional chinese soup so I ordered this. It serves with dumpling and ttuk aka rice cake!

Cafeteria food as well. This is two persons serving. I love this cz the food is hot when it served and is a little bit spicy and sweet. RM14 for two persons. 

Spicy pork with rice. Craving for soup again. Lol..and the korean yogurt *on the top right* aka vitagen is what we called! Some people will have constipation when they travel overseas, and if you are in Korea, I suggest you to buy korean yogurt and I assure it may help you out in constipation cz I experienced it myself! Lol..

Toppoki aka spicy rice cake in Korea. One of my favourite dish in Korea. The one selling in MyeongDong is much nicer compared to cafeteria. One of the cheapest food in cafeteria. This meal only cost RM4.50.

Ice Cream ice cream! Snacks that we keep in the hostel fridge to fix the crave when we watch drama. Haha..

Extremely spicy instant noodle. I tried that and never ever pour the whole packet of chili oil into it. Otherwise you will end up with diarrhea! Lol..basically it tasted only spicy and nothing else! 

Ahh! One of my favourite food in Seoul! Oreo Yogurt from The Wayo! The mixture of Oreo and yogurt is the best as oreo is sweet and yogurt is sour, best still when I eat, I can bite the crunch of Oreo cookies in every bites! Heavenly good la this yogurt! This is cheap though, RM4.50 each! I want more! 

Another favourite restaurant of mine. What I missed the most is the steam egg! How can you get this full pot of steam egg yet so fluffy in Malaysia? Apparently, those steam egg that selling in local Korean restaurant, they are very dry and tasted like it burned. ==" The side dishes are very nice as well..I love the dried cuttlefish, fish cake and soup! Yumm...

OMG! I miss this! RM30 buffet samgyeopsal and eat-all-you-can enoki mushroom! I'm a mushroom lover so I can really die for this! Really miss this la..:-(

Steam pork! This is very cheap and delicious as well. The meal cost RM15 only. :-)

Walked into this restaurant randomly without knowing the food delicious or expensive. Unexpectedly, the food turns up great. Although the price is quite costly but we certainly miss this food. It is actually duck meat but..it tasted like german sausages! Haha..one plate of this cost RM45! 

Fried spicy octopus from the same shop! Is very spicy but you just can't stop taking it! Almost the same price like the duck meat. 

Pizza from Mr. Pizza! The salad bar from Mr. Pizza comes with lots of variety and you can find everything here including jelly, cookies, yogurt, many different flavours of potatoes, crabmeat and so on so forth! Unlike our salad bar in Malaysia. >< 

Basically I love Mr. Pizza and Pizza Hut in Korea but the portion for Mr. Pizza is much smaller than Pizza Hut. If you ask me, I would prefer Pizza in Korea than McD and KFC. But..Mr. Pizza and Pizza Hut is very expensive. One meal would cost you RM30 + per person only for a few slices. 

Small lobster pizza. 

Last but not least! 安东鸡！I have no idea what is this called in English but it tasted like food that we could get from authentic Chinese restaurant in Taiwan or China..because they have dried chili padi so the spicyness makes it more flavourful! 

They have two types of glass noodles..after it absorb the soup, it is so so nice! They have the outlet in MyeongDong as well but I heard that usually restaurant branches open in MyeongDong are usually more expensive or same price with smaller portion. ><

That's the end for the food sharing near to my uni area..upcoming post I will bring you to Gangnam, Ewha, MyeongDong and so on  in Seoul! Stay tuned and I miss you guys! 

Have a great weekend ahead! 

50% Rebate Campaign from 23rd to 25th July in Gurney Paragon

Hey guys, I'm back to tell you about the latest promotion by Italiannies! 

They are one of my favourite Italian restaurant in the island, good news is currently they are running a three-day long 50% rebate campaign in Gurney Paragon from 23rd to 25th July! Be quick, mark your calender and make reservation! My previous post about Italiannies is here, I love it especially their seafood risotto! Details is in the post, feel free to click in. :-)

The three-day long "50% rebate campaign" is being run by Italiannies in celebration of Gurney Paragon's soft launch.

Throughout the campaign period, guests will receive 50% rebate of their total bill when they dine in Italiannies. The 50% rebate can be used to offset their bill using their next visit to Chaswood's many restaurants namely, Italiannies, T.G.I.Friday's, The Apartment, Watami, Bulgogi Brothers, Laundry, Baci, Bedroom and Malones Irish Restaurant & Bar.

Bulgogi Brothers which is under Chaswood are famous for their heart shape bulgogi but sadly it is available only in KL. Hopefully they will launch in Penang soon but I guess the opening of Italiannies would be a great start to "test the water" in Penang. Lol..

Chicken Milanese

Classic Carbonara

To eligible for the promotion, members of the public just need to sign up for Chaswood Resources' loyalty card program - Pinch of Salt card, which is available for free.

I have applied myself the Pinch of Salt card during my last visit dining in Italiannies. As it is free, so I see no harm to apply it as the member. :-)

Other than the 50% rebate campaign running during Gurney Paragon's soft launch, cardmembers will also be able to enjoy a series of exclusive dining privileges at Chaswood's restaurant such as a 10% rebate from subtotal bill, birthday voucher worth RM30, monthly special offers and more.

In addition, from 26th July till 30th September 2013, Italiannies will be having special offers for Pinch of Salt members in Penang, which include complimentary dessert, 20% rebate and more.

If you never try Italiannies and one of your concern is financial constraints then I think this is the right time to grab this 50% rebate opportunity to dine in there. I will recommend you the seafood risotto besides the ordinary pasta and pizza. Risotto is a traditional italian food, the details about it can view from my previous post then..:-)

Pizza Enorme

Stuffed Mushroom

面吃之家.鱼滑米粉 at Pertama Kompleks

Blog again after a day! I have too many pending posts so better get most of it done asap as final is approaching! One week later! Opps...

But we get along well..all of them just too nice! Talk more about it when I blogged about the trip! :-)

Anyway gonna share about a place in KL that I liked..they are selling fish head noodle but milky soup based instead of the ordinary tomyam or clear soup that we usually get in Penang.

面吃之家 at Pertama Kompleks 

The food menu. They offer fish paste, fish head, fish ball, dumpling, prawn and more for customers to choose from.

Out of all drinks I think soft drinks is the worthwhile among all. Lol..

The food that I ordered Fish Paste Mee Hon which cost RM8. Last year when I went I think they gave 5 fish pastes but recently they have reduce it to 4 only and the size of the fish paste is smaller now..:-(

Darling ordered Fish Head Mee Hon which is RM8 as well. The speciality of this food is the soup with sourish and milky taste. I always love tomyam so this mee hon is my favour la..:-)

Darling recommend this place to me..

Yours truly

The best part is the chili..it is extremely spicy so we usually squeeze the lime juice to neutral the spiciness of the chili.

It is located at Pertama Kompleks. Google this place and ask people around then they will show you the way.
