48HoChiak! Goku Raku Ramen (Gurney Paragon, Penang)

Friday, working at Penang and hiding myself from traffic jam at the bridge. I went to the other side to visit the new open to public high class resident at the Gurney area. Not much to see here, but there's some interesting foodie places.


Goku Raku Ramen
Location: Gurney Paragon, Penang.
48HoChiak Level: 7.5/10
Cuisine: Japanese
What's Best: Ramen!
Price Range:RM18++ Mid range




Overall, this place wasn't bad at all. Their green tea is refillable, open kitchen... luckily the kitchen hood is strong enough. 


I've tried their signature Goku Raku Ramen, small size. The bowl did came out small in shape, as you can see on photo, but wait, the bowl is actually tall in shape, thus, their small size is our daily regular size, and the large size, should be the Sumo size. RM18.90 for this 'small' bowl can be considered worth it. The soup is really great! Savory, thick and most importantly, even though its heavy, it won't make you feel thirsty! However, their garnishes are out of my expectation. The Char Siew is not tender enough, and the egg, supposed to be flavored but it's not. If you love plain and fresh garnishes, you might love it. I prefer the traditional way, tender meat and well flavored egg.

Overall, I'll be back! Too bad it's not Halal! This is not a vegan friendly place.
