Homemade Noodles Star at Hulhumalé’s New Ramen Spot: Ramen House
Ramen enthusiasts have a new reason to rejoice as the doors of a brand-new ramen spot, named Ramen House, swung open last Thursday. This exciting addition to the culinary scene offers a fusion of Korean and Japanese ramen dishes to satisfy cravings for authentic, affordable flavours, starring fresh, homemade noodles.
Manager Zaina Moosa shared her motivation behind creating Ramen House: "Cup-Noodles, especially those with ramen flavours, have been gaining popularity lately. I wanted to bring that unique taste to people here without the need to travel far."
This desire to offer an accessible taste of genuine ramen led to the inception of the Ramen House concept.
The launch event, marked by the lively rhythms of the local "Habeys" bodu-beru group, attracted a crowd eager to sample the menu. The restaurant's simple yet inviting setup created a warm ambience for patrons to enjoy their meals.
With a chef hailing from Japan and boasting international culinary experience, Ramen House aims to deliver a diverse range of ramen options that cater to different tastes.
"Our chef's expertise, cultivated through his experiences in the United States and the Middle East, adds a unique touch to our dishes," Sabree shared.
The restaurant has already generated a buzz on social media, quickly gaining a loyal following. To amplify its online presence, Ramen House has enlisted the help of a young social media influencer, b.u.n.t.i, as its brand ambassador.
Due to overwhelming demand, the restaurant now offers to pre-book options to ensure diners can secure a seat and savour their ramen experience without the hassle of waiting in long lines.
Zaina also revealed future plans: "We're looking to expand our reach by franchising across the Maldives. Our goal remains to provide top-notch ramen at affordable prices, making these flavours accessible to everyone."
As Ramen House settles into its role as a hub for Korean and Japanese culinary delights, it's evident that the local community and food enthusiasts have embraced this new addition with enthusiasm. The restaurant's dedication to bringing authentic ramen experiences closer to home is poised to make it a staple in the hearts - and stomachs - of many.
