## A weekend shopping lunch: ramen in Michuhol

Recommending a ramen spot in Michuhol 🍜 We had errands at Lotte Department Store Incheon over the weekend, so we went with the family. We wandered around looking at things, and before we knew it, it was lunchtime. While debating what to feed the kids, we started craving warm broth, so we decided to stop by Menya Seoul Lotte Department Store Incheon Branch on the basement floor. The kids, who love ramen, agreed right away. If you're a fan of Japanese-style ramen, this is a spot worth checking out among Lotte Department Store Incheon restaurants.

## Open kitchen and inner tables: what's the atmosphere like?

A clean restaurant. At Menya Seoul, you order at the front and bring your own food to the table. What caught my eye most was the open kitchen, where you could see the whole cooking process.

When I go to a restaurant I always end up quietly checking whether the kitchen looks clean, so it was nice that everything inside was visible. We sat at a table set up behind the open kitchen.

Rather than fully open seating like a food court, this spot was a bit more tucked in, so it was comfortable and good for eating with kids.

## 3 broths, 2 toppings — how to choose

Pick your broth and topping to taste 🍜 Looking at the menu, the broth comes in three types — mild, spicy, and mala — so it was easy to pick according to that day's mood. For toppings, you can choose between dongpo pork and jambon, and you can order single, set, or double set. Choosing the set menu lets you add one side dish and one drink. There were plenty of side dish options too, like crispy gyoza, karaage, and french fries. If ramen alone feels like it's not quite enough, ordering the set seems like a good idea.

### 🥢 Rich meat broth: dongpo pork char siu ramen

My daughter and I started with the dongpo pork char siu ramen, and true to Japanese-style ramen, the broth had a deep meaty flavor. One spoonful in, it tasted savory and quite rich and heavy. This seems like a great fit for people who prefer a deep, distinctly meaty broth over something light and clear.

### 🥢 Salty charm: jambon char siu ramen

The char siu ramen with jambon had a different flavor from regular char siu. Thinly sliced jambon comes with the ramen, and its salty taste went well with the broth — with generous portions of topping, it was great eaten together with the noodles.

![Spicy char siu ramen topped with jambon](https://img.superchart.com/images/menya-seoul-incheon-family-lunch-ramen/menya-seoul-incheon-family-lunch-ramen-21-2ulg6-900.webp)

### 🥢 For something spicier: spicy char siu ramen

My husband picked the spicy char siu ramen with jambon topping. The rich, meaty flavor of the base ramen got an extra kick of heat, which made it taste a bit more refreshing overall. If you find rich Japanese-style ramen a little too heavy, the spicy option or the mala broth might suit you better.

## Even the kids ate well at this Michuhol ramen spot

My younger child seemed to really like the taste of the broth and ate way more than I expected. You might worry that Japanese-style ramen broth would be too rich or unfamiliar for a kid, but she ate the noodles, spooned up the broth, and said it was delicious.

## Wrapping up a weekend ramen lunch at Lotte Department Store

The open kitchen gave it a clean feel, and it was great being able to pick to taste from the rich, savory meat broth in mild, spicy, or mala, plus dongpo pork or jambon toppings. If you're shopping at Lotte Department Store and craving a warm, filling meal, or looking for a good ramen spot in Michuhol, this place is worth a visit. It was a weekend lunch where everyone in the family picked what they liked and left happy.
