Mitaseimenjo @ Shinjuku, Tokyo

Last year I been to this restaurant for its udon. The udon is quite good and succulent. This time I am satisfied after having udon here for the second time. Do you know why? This time I ordered large size instead of medium. But I having hard time to finish it as the noodles is too much! The broth is mixture of chicken, fish and pork.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. The udon noodles when mixed with the soup is good. The soup contains seaweed and some kind of bamboo shoots. Plus there is some pork slices in there as well).
Price:6/10(Moderate. Big bowl of noodles for 800 Yen. The portion is quite big and its filling).


Large noodles that I ordered. I have eaten 500 gramme of noodles!

This is how to eat udon. Take some of the noodles and soak it into the soup. If the soup is not enough, you can top it up with fish broth. The first time I was here, I not sure what is the stainless steel jar for. So I just pour it into my cup and drink it like water. Then I notice that the taste is something not right. Now, I know that it is fish broth to top up my soup.

They have spicy and non-spicy version. I took the non-spicy one. Spicy version is more expensive by 50 yen. If you do notice, that small and medium portion have the same price.

Pho Hoa is a Vietnamese chain restaurant which have outlets in USA, Canada and Asia. For me in Vietnamese restaurant, you must try their beef noodles. If that dish is done correctly, that's means that they are really serious on making the business growing and they are really good at it. I can see that every outlet of this restaurant in Philippines is really full of customers especially during lunch & dinner.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. Their beef noodle portion is big and taste is good, above average. Soup is nice without trace of artificial additive. I do like they served raw vegetables and don't mind to add more).
Price:6/10(Moderate. The price of a bowl of large beef noodles around 200 Peso which is quite reasonable).


Look out for this sign. Pho Hoa - Noodle soup. Their noodle soup is indeed good.

This is a well known restaurant in Kuala Lumpur. It famous for river prawn noodles, beef hor fun (kuey teow) & paper wrapped chicken.

Taste:8/10(Good. The meal is quite good but a bit salty).
Price:5/10(Near expensive. The plate of the noodles with drinks for two cost me RM24. Make sure you ask the price if you plan to order their famous sang har mee. The prawn is very big but the price can reach RM35-45 for a large prawn. Located near the tourist attraction area, no wonder their price is higher).

Hokkien Noodles & Fried Wanton Noodles @ Pulau Tikus, Penang

At first I thought hokkien noodles is like the stir fry noodles broad noodles with black soy sauce like in KL. But hokkien noodles in Penang is actually prawn noodles. I would think the Penang hokkien noodles served in this Pulau Tikus shop is quite good although my other food trip members thinks the other way. Maybe this is my first time having it.

Taste:8/10(Delicious. The soup base and the prawn plus some pork is good and I like this type of hokkien noodles compared to the ones in KL).
Price:6/10(Moderate. I would think the price of RM4 is a bit high for a bowl of noodles).
