Ippudo Ramen @ Pavillion, KL

George brought me to this place last year,  I did not get to blog about this place.  He told me he first tried Ippudo Ramen in Singapore. He is not sure that if Malaysia's will be as good.  He told me he tried Ippudo ramen in singapore with dark oil.  I was wondering what dark oil is that. I found out on the menu itself is garlic oil.

We order two type of ramen to try.

IPPUDO’s original tonkotsu broth enhanced with special blended miso paste and fragrant garlic oil. Served with thin noodles, pork belly, kikurage and spring onions. A re fined, modern-style ramen.

AKAMARU SHINAJI

IPPUDO’s original tonkotsu broth served with ultra-thin noodles, pork loin, bean sprouts, kikurage & spring onions. Classic Hakata-style ramen.

SHIROMARU MOTOAJI

The Ramen broth is really thick.  I like the AKAMARU SHINAJI Ramen, the black oil does really make the broth tastier.  

La Cucina @ Pullman Kuala Lumpur Bangsar

I had lunch at La Cucina @ Pullman KL on my last trip to KL.  La Cucina is the newly launched urban dining specialty restaurant with an eclectic Mediterranean inspired cuisine.  The restaurant is highlighted with warm orange hues that complement the home-style table setting.  It is an open concept restaurant.  Where you will be able to watch how their chef prepare your meal.  Is a nice place to bring your client or a love one to dine there.
