Goku Raku Ramen l 極樂らーめん @Mid Valley Megamall

Hey what’s up foodies, the ramen series is back, this time bring you the "Horikiri Style" ramen from Goku Raku Ramen outlet located at one of Malaysia's favourite shopping destinations- Mid Valley Megamall. For those who missed the previous ramen reviews, simply click >here: Marutama Ramen @Fahrenheit 88<  & >here: Hokkaido Ramen Santouka@Pavilion KL< for a quick recap ;)

Thanks to the lovely invite from Goku Raku Ramen & Ivy, I had a chance to attend a pretty lavish food review at the GRR Mid Valley outlet where several signature ramen together with some delightful appetizers, katsu etc. were served. ^^ 

Goku Raku Ramen l 極樂らーめん@ Lot S25 & S26, Level 2, Mid Valley Megamall.

Warm specious interior @ Goku Raku Ramen, Mid Valley Megamall outlet.

perhaps the most attention attention drawing thing at Goku Raku Ramen outlet @Mid Valley Megamall-- the sophisticated (& extremely expensive according to the chef ^^) ramen-making machine which supply freshly made ramen to all the GRR outlets on daily basis.

The nicely printed menu.

And here comes the stars of the night, the 5 Star Kakuni Ramen & the 5 Star Aburi Char Siew Ramen. Both consist of a generous portion of ramen topped with spring onion, bean sprout, bamboo shoot, soft & smooth lava egg, black garlic oil and delectable homemade braised pork belly (for Kakuni ramen) / mouth-watering roasted char siew (for Aburi Char Siew ramen).    

5 Star Kakuni Ramen (R). RM 26.90

5 Star Aburi Char Siew Ramen (R). RM 25.90

One thing to be highlight at Goku Raku Ramen would be the unique Tonkotsu soup, a creamy & rich soup make up by a well mixed broth of palatable pork, chicken & fish, as well as the japanese Shio (salt) and Shoyu (soy sauce). This is so far the most ample pork base ramen soup that I've tasted, a must try for heavy tasters and pork lovers.

Tan Tan Ramen. An alternative for those who doesn't like their noodles to be too soupy. RM 13.90

GRR Meatballs. Crispy skin with soft juicy fillings, the luscious sweet sauce might be too much for me but some of the girl bloggers fell deep in love with it. ;) RM 5 (5pcs) RM 9 (10 pcs) RM 17 (20pcs) 

Yaki Gyoza. RM 9.90 

For group/family dining, chef’s special course meal which comes with a great deal of dishes is something to be consider if you’re looking for more than an a-la-carte order. Do take note that the chef’s special course meal are only available after 6pm as it takes longer preparation time in serving the meal :) 

Chef’s Special Course Meal Set C (3-4 pax). RM 119.90

Some close up shots for the dishes available in the chef’s special course meal we tried: 

Aburi Char Siew (L) & Utsunomiya Sui Gyoza. The soft & literary melt in your mouth Char Siew is still my favourite ramen item. b^^d

Crispy Shrimp Mayo, Tori Momo Karaage & Pork Loin Rei Shabu (L to R). Love the fresh juicy bouncy shrimp with almost impossible to fail mayo. b^^d 

Ebi Chili, Sweet & Sour Pork and Siew Mai (L to R).

Mini Ramen, Sesame Ball and Chef Recommended Salad (L to R).  

Last but not least, thanks to the good folks from Goku Raku Ramen, Jz.World's readers get a 50 % off for the chewy GRR meatballs, simply print out the voucher below and present it while making your order. ;)

Nuffnang Premiere Screening: The Amazing Spider-Man 2

Marvel superhero return to the big screen once again, this time with a 2 hours + blockbuster action thriller of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Heading back to a premiere screening after quite some time, the first thing that came to my mind while entering the theatre was: how amazing can Spider-Man be? Being the most filmed Marvel superhero, could Director Marc Webb’s spider-Man escape the web of familiar storyline & cliché..

Storyline: “We've always known that Spider-Man's most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2™, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead. It's great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there's no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realise that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.” (c) Columbia Pictures     

Overall The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is pretty much similar to its blockbuster debut in 2012, a perfect modern Hollywood blockbuster franchise film. With that being said, despite the stunning visual & sounds, there’s still more to be expect in the movie thanks to the strong performances from the entire cast. Having real-life couple Andrew Garfield & Emma Stone gives a great boost in chemistry to the movie & the ‘slightly-deviate-from-the-original’ story line involving Peter Parker's parents is indeed a good attempt. The first-person shots of spidey featured and some of the big exciting action scenes of Electro were pretty entertaining, and the character of Spider-Man which made more human does worth some extra credits.      

Though The Amazing Spider-Man 2 wasn’t an outstanding masterpiece still this it is indeed an entertaining & enjoyable action thriller. It is nice to see Spider-Man onscreen again. :)

Thanks to NuffnangMY for the invites. Check out the backdrop,

Rating: 7.3/10~

汤师傅 l TaangShifu @ Paradigm Mall

汤品药膳自古有之，为养生健体之王道。然而虽健康之重要已为大众所熟知，但煨汤炖煮膳食之法往往因耗时费神而让生活节奏快速忙碌的现代人望而却步。倘若在这纷扰忙乱的都市丛林里，有着一处典雅舒适之所在，承载着浓情与健康的承诺，持续供给着细心烹调之汤品药膳，岂不妙哉？^^

*题外话时间* 有一段时间没写中文食评了，此次的食评选择以文绉绉兼比较做作的方式开场，除去了一贯偏二的风格，不为什么，纯粹个人喜好，就当作为了不久前稍稍改版的部落格来点不一样的style呗，觉得若觉得不习惯的读者还请多多包含 XD（ps：新的layout还不错吧 :P）

*题外话时间结束* 言归正传，就算再怎么包装，吃货依然是吃货，太过做作就显得矫情咯，所以让我们一同回归吃货一贯重点关注的问题吧：真那有这么好康的地方，磕了药膳还可喝汤？答案当然是有啦，一开始不都写在标题了说，今天为大家介绍的就是这么一个好所在啦 b^^d

引子一：中国风，舒适温暖~

汤师傅 l TaangShifu @ Lot No.CF-38 & CF-39, Concourse Floor, Paradigm Mall.

古典舒适的店面，让养生多了一份悠闲。 :)

引子二：中餐，药膳，健康~

漂亮的menu，还附有详细汤品简介哦。

各式养生膳食任君选择

引子三：主角美食们登场~ ^^

天山雪莲乌鸡汤 l Snow Mountain Lotus Black Chicken Soup. 乌鸡与雪莲及其他中药材经5-6小时的慢火熬炖，口口都是香甜浓郁的精华啊，虽然功效不如武侠小说里描述般神奇，但强心益胃，对身体可不无小补。b^^d (RM 38.90) *天山雪莲在小说里可是超厉害的神物，几乎可以起死回生啊 XD 

汤师傅招牌汤-参鸡汤 l TaangShifu  Signature Soup. 清甜但不腻口的汤头蕴含着淡淡的人参味道，完全的滋补养生上品，正中央厚实的干贝肉质甘鲜，绝对是是本人的最爱啦。 b^^d  (RM 38.90)

虫草花松黑豚煲 l Cordyceps Flower & Japanese Mushroom With Sliced Pork. 若上两道汤品是小清新，那么虫草花松黑豚煲及接下来的茶花卤肉便是重口味咯。难得的是虽然是口味偏重的菜系，但调味却恰到好处咸淡适中，稍微可惜的黑豚肉稍微偏韧，但整体还算不错。(RM 38.90)

茶花卤肉 l Home Braised Pork Belly In Rich Dark Sauce. 个人非常推崇的一道菜，完美肥瘦比列的卤肉配上小黄瓜及松软的馒头片，层次丰富的口感及可口的酱汁，教人怎能不爱她~ b^^d (RM 22.90)

干贝鲍仔烩饭 l Dried Scallops & Petite Abalone Mixed Rice. 份量十足的烩饭配上可爱的鲍鱼仔，单点便可简单的解决一餐咯。 (RM 16.90)

虫草干贝排骨汤 l Dried Scallop Spare Rib Soup With Cordyceps (RM 23.90) 

茶树菇竹笙八宝菜 l Eight Treasure Hotpot With Japanese Mushroom. 蔬菜的清香配上滑溜的竹笙及淡稠适中的汤头，清爽可口。 (RM 25.90) 

当归卤肉饭 l Dang Gui Stewed Pork With Rice (RM 7.90)

带子西兰花 l Broccoli With Sliced Abalone and Scallop （RM 23.90）

川芎酒香鱼头 l Stewed Fish Head With Wine & Chuan Gong （RM 28.90）

当然最终少不了饭后甜点咯，来一客冰冰凉凉的黑糖豆腐脑，甜滋滋的划上句点。 ^^

感谢汤师傅 Paradigm Mall盛情大器的为我们准备了澎湃丰盛的汤品及菜肴，赞！ b^^d

ps: Thanks to Kelvin & Living Social for the invite :)
