Japan’s highly-rated Homemade Ramen Muginae debuts its famed ‘shoyu ramen’ on Jalan Sin Chew Kee

The renowned Japanese ramen brand Homemade Ramen Muginae has opened a new location in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The restaurant is known for its Michelin Bib Gourmand status and offers a variety of Japanese dishes alongside its signature shoyu ramen.
Why it matters
The expansion of high-profile international culinary brands into local markets reflects shifting dining trends and globalized food culture.
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 10 — Get your chopsticks ready as another well-known ramen place from Japan has swooped into town.
Homemade Ramen Muginae is a brand touted in Japan as one of the top places where visitors queue to savour its carefully crafted, natural broth, as described on its website.
Who can blame the rush to eat this bowl of shoyu ramen ? It bears the distinction of being in the Michelin Bib Gourmand Tokyo for nine consecutive years.
For those who don’t trust Bibendum’s choices (case in point: some of the picks in our Michelin guides), this ramen has also won over the Japanese-preferred review site Tabelog, earning numerous awards including the bronze medal.
Expectations were high when we walked through the door of the restaurant along Jalan Sin Chew Kee, since the Michelin logo was displayed proudly outside.
