Marukame Udon

The first time I went there, my friend took me there. I ordered a sour soup beef udon and a bunch of fried food. I thought the fried food was really delicious, but the noodles were just average. A few days ago, I suddenly wanted to eat tempura and thought of Kamemaru Seimen. This time, I researched it and ordered the most popular tomato beef udon. In fact, I think the name tomato beef is more appropriate. It is not the kind of beef in pieces, but slices of beef. But compared to sour soup beef, I like the taste of tomato beef udon more. The soup is very thick and fragrant, and the sourness makes people super appetizing. Although it is a small bowl, it is quite filling. Then talk about my favorite fried food, I ordered tempura and fried chicken steak. Tempura was not a coincidence. When I ordered it, there was only one left. I didn't think much and picked it up on the plate. When I started to eat it, it was already half cold, not as crispy and fragrant as when it was hot. The onion wrapped in batter was fried very delicious, without the spicy taste of onions, and it felt crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, but it still tastes better when it is hot. The fried chicken steak was superb, and it was crispy when you took a bite. The chicken inside must have been marinated in advance, so it was more flavorful, not the kind of bland chicken. I ordered a cup of white peach Calpis, which tasted like the drink I drank when I was a child, and it was delicious!

A very popular udon restaurant with over 6,000 reviews on Yelp. I went there at 5am with high expectations to queue up, but was a little disappointed. The way to buy is to choose the portion first, then the soup, then choose the tempura by yourself, then pay the bill and find a seat by yourself. How should I put it? In addition to the noodles being chewy, the soup tasted really average. I tried three kinds of soup bases and they were all just salty, with no difference. There were many varieties of tempura, but nothing amazing. Overall, it's okay to try something new, but it's not worth queuing in a long line (I came out around 6pm after eating and the line was really long, it felt like a hundred meters with several turns). I will never go to a restaurant that requires queuing again. [picking nose]

The taste is good; the drinks are very regular cola, Sprite, etc.; the price is more than ten dollars a portion, which is quite affordable. Overall, it is very delicious, especially the udon noodles, but some people think it is not good, maybe because the expectations are too high. !

I really don't understand why Marugame noodles, which are also available in China, are so popular in Hawaii. Out of curiosity, I queued up for lunch and ate Marugame noodles, which are quite popular in Hawaii. It is really good. The noodles are okay, but the variety of tempura is a little less. However, the soup in the noodles feels thicker than that in China.

They have restaurants in Beijing and Japan, but I've never tried them. When I went to Hawaii, I saw this place was the only one with a long line, so I took advantage of a less crowded day to try it. You order by waiting in line, then order your noodles as they cook, then add your own toppings like tempura. The food is authentic. It's a good value for the area, as it's just noodles, so the price isn't that high. It's perfect for Asian palates, so I recommend this place if you're not used to Western food.

To be honest, it's not as good as the one in Shanghai, but there were quite a lot of people lining up. I ordered some of the same food, and I thought it was just average. The price was cheap, and it was the cheapest meal I had in Hawaii.

It's really delicious. There's a line every day, but it doesn't take long to get a table. It's super authentic and very affordable. In Hawaii, there's basically nothing good to eat besides sandwiches and burgers and fries. Even star-rated hotels have buffets at best, so I've already had two meals there.

The Marugame noodles here have become a popular restaurant on the Internet. It seems to be a must-visit food in Hawaii. In fact, we also have Marugame noodles there, but we didn't find anything special. This morning, the tour bus passed by here, and the tour guide asked us to see that there were already people queuing. So after returning to the hotel at noon, we had free time in the afternoon and came here for lunch. The queue lasted about 40 minutes. Most of the people were Japanese. The udon noodles were very chewy, and there were all kinds of tempura. After picking up the food at each window, we paid together. For drinks, we bought a paper cup for unlimited drinks. 8 US dollars for a bowl of noodles is really very cheap for Americans, but we can't convert anything we buy into RMB. If we think about it that way, it will feel not cheap.
