Meishan

Cat themed malatang place! When you enter the restaurant, you’d be greeted by an open fridge where you can choose your own topping. You will then put the toppings you chose into a basket and hand it over to the staff by the counter. Wait at your seat for a while and she will bring your noodles with all your toppings for you! You can also choose the spice level and the type of noodles u want. I choose 6 toppings and paid only around 1200¥~ ish. The soup itself is very delicious, but it wasn’t as spicy. Granted, I chose level 3 out of the spice level. It opens until quite late, so i think it’s a great late night snack. The place itself is very cozy and cute too, with lots of cats. The staffs also wear cat ears headbands!

If the place will change concept to the angry cats that might work better. Now it's big contrast between all that kawaii pictures and cat ears that staff wears and their unfriendliness. Gives you mixed feelings. The soup is good though, but because nobody explained that you have to pick 5 items I have picked 4.

Really unusual place where you can choose your own ingredients and they cook everything for you in a real Chinese style. The staff were all Chinese, as were the array of sauces and condiments. I had an excellent spicy Sichuan-style ramen.

Amazing ramen! Tastes fantastic at all hotness levels, simply grab 3-5 ingredients from the rack and away you go. Very close to the station, head downstairs and you’ll find the chilly kitty.

Food was gassssss, tasty soup, dumplings go hard

A little gem! You pick your ingredients (5) in a self service fridge, hand them to the waiter-waitress then you get to choose your noodles and the level of spiciness (from 1 to 4). That was a really good meal!

Amazing place! Delicious and simple ramen that is so cozy and perfect for a colder day. We loved it! Added 5 ingredients and we chose not spicy and added our own spices at the table. Harder to find. Locate the cat pic on the side street and head down the steps :) enjoy!!

Great food! If you’re like me, a lost when it comes to Japanese then read this. The place is downstairs and has a cat logo. Grab a basket and place 5 ingredients in it. Choose the noodle type and finally, the spicyness. Then you’re all set!
