Lingua Gustatio: Ippudo Gurney Plaza

"Irasshaimase!" いらっしゃいませ！

is what we often get to hear when we visit a Japanese store. 

IPPUDO, the renowned Ramen store from Japan has finally set foot in Penang in July 2018. IPPUDO拉面在吉隆坡已经有三家分店而在今年七月终于在

槟城合您广场开幕营业啦。

The menu could be slightly confusing but that was what I concluded. Most of the broth was made with Tonkotsu (pork broth) and there were different 

ingredients and condiments added. 

多数的汤底都是猪大骨熬成的，在配上不同的材料就有不一样的味道了。

Shiromaru (white), Akamaru (red, miso soup), Karaka (spicy) and 

Ippudo Kuro special (Black pepper) 

Each of the noodle hardness could be customized except for the Ippudo Kuro Special that uses thicker and chewy noodles. 还有你可以选择拉面的粗细度。

FREE Pork Bun with min order of 2 bowls of ramen and pay it with Citibank 
credit card. (until Dec 2018) ⇩

 没错，这是免费的！如果你点了两碗拉面，再用Citibank信用卡付账就

可以享有这免费的猪肉剐包。

Worth trying it as the BBQ pork was beyond our expectation! We were actually thinking it could be similar to bak kua but the patty was crispy 

and moist at the same time.

真的很好吃，不是想像中的猪肉干那样，而是多汁不腻的肉片。

Ever since the opening in July, we have never seen the queue cutting short. 

We were seated near the bar as it was almost full house.

位子天天都爆满了，而我们坐到了吧台上。

Akamaru Special RM34.90

Always my favourite type of ramen, being simmered in the aromatic pork broth. (but I found it to be slightly salty than my usual taste)

我爱点的拉面是清汤因为我喜欢那猪肉清甜的而又不会有腥味的汤头。

(虽然说有点过咸)

Ippudo Kuro Special RM35.90

This is undoubtedly unique compared to the usual ramen as the noodles served were of thicker texture and the broth was rich with black pepper and garlic flavour.

另外一道拉面是这款黑胡椒的，里面用的拉面也是厚厚的又有弹性的，非常特别。
