Hanamaru Udon, Mid Valley, Kuala Lumpur

Today is Aeon Member's Day sale at Mid Valley. I was happy to be able to go out and just do some grocery shopping other than window shopping. Unfortunately, after browsing at the grocery section for 1 1/2 hours, my tummy was growling. Uh-oh, looks like my Nestum breakfast didn't last long enough. 

Due to budget constraint, I decided to eat at Hanamaru Udon again. I was craving for Miso soup and since it is not in the list of "what shall I cook tonight", I am contend with having my udon. 

I ordered one regular Ontama Bukkake and the usual iced green tea. I have to say, I regretted ordering regular portion. There wasn't much at all. I was afraid that the larger portion would be too much for me. Oh well....

I really like this dish. The miso broth was yummy although I find it a little too salty for my taste. What I like about this dish is the egg. The egg looks so delicate like it's going to burst anytime if I am not gentle. When I bite the egg, the yolk was gushing out and the egg white just melts into my mouth. I'd say it was cooked perfectly, that the yolk is still runny and the egg white doesn't break easily when it is serve into the bowl.

It's definitely one of the better eggs that I've tasted so far. Try it if you are the type that's fussy about your egg.

Ontama Bukkake RM 8.90

Hanamaru Udon at Mid Valley, Kuala Lumpur

This morning we decided to have a brunch first before the movie starts. We were deciding between Ippudo and Hanamaru Udon and seeing we don't have much time, we opted Hanamaru Udon. Yoshinoya and Hanamaru come under Texchem Resources Group 

This would be my third visit and his second visit. I was happy when they opened in Malaysia. We came across this similar concept of look and feel to the food itself when we were in Hong Kong last year. They co-share the space with Yoshinoya, hence, do expect seating to be limited during peak hour.

Service is moderate and servers behind counter are fast and sometimes, not so friendly. This is after all, a self-service and sometimes the queue is crazy during peak hours. Pricing is fairly reasonable and the food quality isn't bad. Their main specialty is udon but they have chawanmushi and tempura selections. 

They have fairly a few choices of udon for you to choose from; beef, curry, salad, spicy miso, clear miso, chicken broth or basic.

We decided to order Kitsune Udon and Tori Dash Udon. No side dishes this round since we were weren't super hungry. Tori Dashi's broth was nice but nothing to shout about. I love their udon . Very good texture and their clear broth is not super oily and still flavourful. 

Kitsune Udon (RM 8.80) Regular

Tori Dashi Udon (RM 10.80) Regular

The prices vary, depending on what you order. Regular is between RM7.80 to RM12.80 and for large bowl, price range will be between RM10.80 to 15.80. It's a suitable choice when you want to have a quick lunch/ dinner or even on a budget.
