Yamagoya Ramen (山小屋) @ SetiaWalk, Puchong

The trend of going to SetiaWalk for food has been going on with my family for months; and of course I wouldn't let go the chance of half-forcing my family to try the new ramen restaurant when I found out that Yamagoya Ramen which proclaimed to have over 150 outlets across Japan is just few minutes drive away from my house.

Visited this restaurant twice but we ordered almost the same thing so the same set of pictures.


 Dining mat (paper lol) that explains the making of ramen pork broth and noodles in Japanese. I ordered Mukashi Special Ramen (RM24) in both my visits, as I think it's of the best value - consists of handmade ramen, with Japanese style Chashu (Sliced Pork), egg, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, nori and some spring onions, all in one bowl!
 



Don't know why but I don't really like the pictures taken here, just think I could do better, but whatever. I think the ramen is slightly above average, with the soup being quite salty for me, yes I do prefer stronger broth taste but not the salt. Chashu was good though, smooth with a good amount of fats. I particularly like the onsen tamago, shared it with my sis because hers is without egg.


My sis targetted this ever since she saw reviews on the net, she loves broth with strong garlic taste; but to her opinion the garlic flavor wasn't fragrant enough, so she was slightly dissapointed.

 
 There's some side dish available as well; and we picked the gyoza to try out. It turns out quite well, i love the half crispy gyoza skin and the fillings match well with vinegar.

I finally get to try Calpis since Yamagoya serves them. Took the soda one, but i heard the original one is better, so kinda regretted it. It's still special nevertheless.

Probably not going back Yamagoya anytime soon though, maybe sometime when the urge is back. Gonna be more hardworking to blog all the backdated food post, stay tuned ~
