Chewy Japanese Noodles! @ Miyatake Sanuki Udon, ISETAN 1 Utama Shopping Centre, Petaling Jaya

My favourite udon joints seem to be closing one by one. First it was Marufuku Udon in Jaya One, then recently, Hanamaru Udon in Sunway Pyramid.

Miyatake Sanuki Udon has roots in Kagawa, Japan, where they have restaurants and their own noodle factory.

Hanamaru Udon, Mid Valley Megamall

The thing about many Japanese restaurants in Malaysia is that they don’t allow you to ‘personalise’ your dishes – if you order an Udon Tempura meal, you’d get a bowl of soy sauce-broth based udon together with fried ebi, green beans, aubergine and sweet potato. So when I walked past Hanamaru Udon while at Mid Valley Megamall, my curiosity was piqued. The menu had various … Continue reading Hanamaru Udon, Mid Valley Megamall
