| - Muku Japanese Noodle House just opened recently in the location where Globefish Sushi used to be on 14St NW. Globefish has now moved next door to the building that used to be occupied by a chinese restaurant.
I went to Muku for the first time yesterday for lunch. This is a great little spot for ramen noodles. Muku specializes in ramen noodles and has a very limited menu of other items. There is no sushi served at Muku, which makes sense as that's why Globefish specializes in. They have about 10 different variations on ramen. About half of them were soy-sauced based and half were miso based. For the soy-sauce based, they had ton-katsu ramen, spicy ton-katsu ramen, chasu ramen, wonton ramen, and chasu wonton ramen. For the miso based, they offered miso ramen, miso wonton ramen, miso wonton chasu ramen,etc.
I really enjoyed the ton-katsu ramen (soy-sauce based broth). The noodles were a little chewy as they are supposed to be. I really liked the chewiness of the noodles. The bbq pork was not too fatty. I wasn't crazy about the broth as it was quite rich. But in comparison, it was quite decent and not greasy. This place is definitely much better than Shikiji's. I'm glad we have more choices now when it comes to ramen noodles ever since Muku opened. I heard the chef was from Hiroshima. This is definitely a nice place for lunch. I'd go back for sure. It's also nice that they have parking as well.
