Yeah that sounds like something a Malaysian would do: go for the familiar, which in this case is something that approximates your average Hainanese chicken on chicken stock-flavoured rice. You really need to read up the wiki on ramen and its history to get a better grasp on the concept. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramen To note: Preparing the ramen soup properly takes from hours to days. As for the "hawker stall" suggested by Criz Lai: seriously, there is nothing in the Japanese food menu that would sell for RM3. Trouble with Japanese food is that even the average roadside food fare, if there is such a thing, takes a lot of skill, preparation and most importantly experience to prepare. And it is "experience" that I don't find in the 2 pictures you supplied in your blog. There is no "fried Japanese udon" or "teriyaki fried rice" that I know of. Now, if you stumbled on a Japanese ramen stall that does hint at authenticity, I'd be most happy to try it out, even at an outrageous price of RM15 per bowl, as it would've saved me the walk/drive to Gurney Plaza, and having to put up with the Chinese pop songs in there. (Ajisen Ramen was closed down the last time I visited due to Gurney expansion. My gut feeling says they might never reopen. I hope I'm wrong, as I have tried to look for alternative ramen stalls in Penang and came up empty.) Forgo mouth watering pork bone soup ramen only to go for Kikkoman-marinated chicken on rice?
