Have you ever associated a cute dog with Japanese noodles? Visit IIKO Mazesoba, a cute Japanese eatery in Sydney’s Darling Square, and you’ll see how they can be best friends. Garry, a TFP foodie, visited recently.
Michelle Widjaja, the eatery’s co-founder, brings her ramen-making experience to create unique dishes. Trained in Osaka in the craft of making perfectly textured ramen noodles, Michelle spotted a gap in Sydney’s food scene. Mazesoba, the Japanese term for ‘mixed noodles’, is a known concept in Tokyo, and Indonesia, but in Sydney? Nowhere to be found, yet. The path was clear for a new taste to be introduced.
