In recent times there have been a sudden increase in Japanese restaurants, mainly due to the increase in awareness by the general public on the intricacies of Japanese cuisine. Fast forward, a new outlet dedicated solely to preparing and serving good Japanese udon have been opened recently in Midvalley Megamall. Aptly named Manmaru Udon, I had the opportunity to dine there with a wonderful bunch of like minded people the other day.
The Niku Udon served, which happens to have my favourite beef slices inside, came in a rather large bowl filled with udon, sliced beef and spinach. The soup itself had a really nice beefy flavour to it. I must say I liked the thin slices of beef inside, as they were really tender, without being too chewy, going well with the fat slippery udon.
The subsequent two Udon dishes served were the Cream Corn Udon and the Kamaage Udon. Generous amounts of corns were thrown into a creamy based soup, offering a tasty thick soup type of texture for the Cream Corn Udon. As for the Kamaage Udon, it was basically an Al dente style udon served in a bowl of warm kamaage sauce. Basic, but goes well with the accompanying sauce.
The Kake Udon served was a basic dish, where one can choose to order should you prefer a classic style soy udon. Nothing spectacular there, just a classic Udon dish. The Japanese Curry Udon however had a very heavy curry-like taste to it. One thing about Japanese curries are that they are not spicy, but have this creamy, sweet taste to it. I liked this dish a lot though, probably because my taste buds are accustomed to highly flavoured offerings.
If you would like to have a taste of cold udon, then go for the Zaru Udon, a cold udon dish. I was told this was an all time favourite cold udon dish. Well to each his own, I still prefer my Udons in piping hot soup. The Ume Udon was a refreshing dish, served with pickled plums that tantalize the taste buds. 張貼
