I usually don't eat ramen when I am out, because personally I think most of the ramen stores just cook with maggie mee with a lot of MSG, which is what we cooked at home.However, when my friend first brought me to Marutama store... It was mind blowing! Even though the noodles look like it's right out of the packaged instant noodles, the taste of the whole bowl of ramen is totally different from what I have eaten elsewhere! The soup base is awesome, especially for the spicy ramen. Can you imagine

I usually don't eat ramen when I am out, because personally I think most of the ramen stores just cook with maggie mee with a lot of MSG, which is what we cooked at home.

However, when my friend first brought me to Marutama store... It was mind blowing! Even though the noodles look like it's right out of the packaged instant noodles, the taste of the whole bowl of ramen is totally different from what I have eaten elsewhere!

The soup base is awesome, especially for the spicy ramen. Can you imagine a spicy soup base without the reddish colour and can still be as clear as the non-spicy ramen soup base? Well, I was amazed apparently. The tenderness of the charsiew on top is superb! I can totally feel it melting in my mouth and the feeling is really heavenly. Last but not least, TRY THEIR HALF-BOILED EGG (ajitsuke tamago), it taste so awesomely surprising! It's hard-boiled on the outside and half-boiled on the inside. Isn't it amazing how they do that? However, this tamago MUST be eaten with the noodles/soup as it could be very salty if you eat it alone, although it is still super delicious.


One of the must-try in this store is their roasted charsiew side dish! *drools*

C'mon, you can't find a more tender roasted charsiew anywhere except here! Different from the charsiew topping of the ramen, this side dish smells and taste even better!
