Marutama Ramen @ Empire Shopping Gallery, Subang

Children are creatures of habit. It's so true especially when it come to food. If they love eating a certain dish, they would always request for it, even if it means eating it 3x a week.. or maybe more.

Both my children love noodles(just like mummy), and ramen is one of their favourite kinds. We took them to Marutama Ramen while we were staying at Empire Hotel Subang.

Oodles of noodles


Since we opted for an early dinner, the restaurant was practically empty. Service was efficient, we got served our food within 5 minutes of ordering (or maybe less). We actually took way longer to decide what we wanted. LOL.



Marutama Ramen is the pioneer for chicken soup ramen in Japan. The soup is made daily and takes 5 hours over high heat to make. One chicken is used for 2 bowls of soup, no added MSG or additives. You can choose either the spicy or non spicy soup. Since Hubby picked the non-spicy to share with the kids, I went for the spicy version.

For a chicken soup version, I found Marutama's soup pretty good. My personal favourite is still Hokkaido Santouka Ramen,I still haven't found another which does the broth better than that. I tasted some of Hubby's non-spicy version, and they both actually taste quite different from one another. Out of the two, I prefer the spicy one as it has a little more kick to it.

I had the Kakuni Negi Tamago Ramen (RM28) which came with a slice of roast pork (cha siu), two pieces of pork belly, seaweed, spring onion, and seasoned egg. I didn't care much for the pork, however the addition of lots of greens was actually quite nice. Hubby had the Char Siu Tamago Ramen (RM26) which came with 4 slices of roast pork (cha siu), seaweed, spring onion and seasoned egg.

The noodles are cooked al dente, they are quite thin, resembling our Malaysian maggi mee but with a more springy texture. Both the kids enjoyed it very much, especially Baby D who had two bowls (the small kids bowl). They also like the soup. Since Hubby shared his noodles with the kids, he ordered an extra portion of noodles for RM3. It is quite a big portion and definitely worth adding if you are a big eater.

The star of the meal was definitely the Ajitsuke Tamago (RM2 each). Our noodles came with a seasoned egg each, but since we enjoyed it so much, we ordered an extra one. The yolk was wonderfully runny. I wonder if I could visit the shop and just order 5 of these eggs for lunch?



He loves ramen :)
