We are being spoilt with the choices of ramen around as there are various ramen joints in KL namely Ippudo ramen, Menya Musashi, Yamagoya, Marutama and many more.

Means “circular” in Japanese language; also represents their service and concept which provides a well-rounded culinary experience. This is home-grown Malaysian brand which offers a self-service concept that allows their customers to move freely around and choose their udon to pair with their favourite broth and flavour as well as side dishes.

Manmaru has their udon made from scratch with the premium wheat flour that is air flown from Japan. The other condiments and sauces and raw material too, are mostly from Japan.
