A repeat of this deal but after a long time, and yes, possibly targeted.
I really like Motto Motto's Ramen and the fact that it's a good dining experience. They have their stores in most popular shopping centres.
Usual RRP of Classic Ramen is $16.90 so this seems to be a pretty good deal!
Definitely targeted, didn’t get any deals on my account.
Not offered in my app
This is one of the targeted freebies they sometimes offer, nothing really new.
Find you usually get this in the next round if you don't claim the karaage chicken (if you're targeted for that).
With 3 family accounts for years - seems more random than that. Rare that more than 1 account is targeted for offer.
Never had a follow up free Ramen offer when family member missed the free karaage chicken offer. But have received free Ramen offer on a different account…
Currently have a free karaage chicken offer, no free Ramen🍜
Yeah that's usually just my experience but I find you get a better item if you turn down a small freebie (although I've only done that a few times). YMMV
Signed but but did not receive this offer.
I had this for the first time recently and not long after spending a week in Tokyo - I thought it was very very average in comparison to the real deal and most other Ramen i've had in Australia - was surprised that it had lots of good reviews!?!
That's like saying you just came back from Italy and crust pizza ain't that great.
Ramen is a traditional Japanese food 🍜 (Of Chinese origin.)
I've eaten many different Japanese Ramen many times over many years - in Japan.
So comparison of Ramen here with the original food is valid.
Crust Pizza is unlike the original Italian food. So your suggested comparison would miss the point. It's origins are more from USA fast food chains! Not Italy 🇮🇹
However, Motto Motto 'Ramen' is not meant to be Japanese Ramen… It's an Aussie 'reimagining' of it!
MM Ramen is fairly bland - developed for the Aussie palate. OK for free, wouldn't pay for it.
Like pizza chain pizzas are fusion food - developed from different influences… only vaguely similar to the original Italian food…
Motto food is similarly fusion. Created here, influenced by Japanese food.
Because it's mediocre food.
Which location? Also, I doubt moto moto being quick serve and a big menu will break down the bones the traditional way. Hakataya is most authentic for me. Going to try Ramen Danbo next, which is a franchise from Japan.
Hakataya is pretty bad too.
I'd say danbo is the most authentic chain one I've tried.
Hakataya is a Ramen chain from Japan. They simmer pork bones the traditional way. You can smell the difference!!
Having eaten Ramen many times over many years in Japan, it's pretty authentic.
Bonus: Free Ramen on birthday with photo ID.
Motto Motto set up by Aussies in Brisbane, is pretty bland in comparison. Only eaten when free.
Plenty of better Ramen shops here.
(Usually leave eating Ramen until in Japan.)
Haven't tried Ramen Danbo - sounds good. Similar tonkotsu ramen with traditional simmered broth. Didn't realise they were in Brisbane.
For the Ramen aficionado, the 1985 Ramen classic movie is Tampopo - how to cook the perfect Ramen 🎥
Thanks to director Juzo Itami's offbeat humor and sharp satirical edge, Tampopo is a funny, sexy, affectionate celebration of food and its broad influence on Japanese culture 100%
You also get tadaema at Hakataya, so a free serve of extra noodles. I guess it can depend on the cooks at each location sometimes and personal taste. Muso ramen also was good. Danbo is expanding very quickly… only remember two outlets in GC when I last looked. Ramen media I would recommend is God of Ramen
@Cave Fire: If you watch the film Tampopo, the joy of the 'correct' eating process is shown. (eg broth should be too hot to drink)
I enjoy a tasty traditional broth. Not so much into tadaema - only had once.
Now lots of Danbo in Brisbane - thanks for the advice.
I agree, I tried in Broadway Sydney and it was not as good as other options in Sydney. Similar prices.
They have their stores in most popular shopping centres.
There’s literally one MM north of the harbour bridge.
While they aren't a massive chain there's both Macquarie Centre and Castle Towers. If they had one on the northern beaches or even Chatswood they'd probably have most of the north covered.
This is bin tier ramen, might as well eat packet.
Not real pork bone soup just can soup diluted all good ramen shops you can smell the fragrant pork stock once you enter the shop
