On the day of my 27th birthday, I thought to myself: if nobody takes me out for a meal, why not take myself out?

So I decided to head straight to Mie Tarik Sultan.

Honestly, I wasn’t looking for fine dining or anything fancy. I just wanted a piping hot bowl of comforting noodles where I didn’t have to worry about maintaining appearances in front of anyone.

My order of the day

I went with the Chicken Ramen served in broth.

From the very first bite, the texture of the hand-pulled noodles hit the spot: chewy, smooth, and hearty without feeling overly heavy. Combined with the hot chicken broth and tender chicken, the bowl felt warm and comforting—exactly what I envisioned for a solo birthday treat.

Hot broth. Chewy noodles. A deeply satisfying meal.

Sometimes simple joys like this are more than enough.

The ‘dangerous’ perk: Free noodle and soup refills!

Here comes the best and slightly ‘dangerous’ part: you can refill your noodles and soup as much as you want.

Giving free refills to someone on their birthday with a hungry stomach is definitely a dangerous combination, haha!

Without hesitation, I naturally took full advantage of those refills!

Tip

Pro tip before visiting

Make sure you show up with an empty stomach. The free noodle and soup refill policy will easily turn your single comforting bowl into a full-on feast!

Great menu variety

The menu here offers a solid range of choices, so it doesn’t feel like a one-trick pony shop. There are various noodle types and toppings you can customize depending on your mood.

But for me personally, the chicken ramen in broth holds the champion title.

Final verdict on dating myself

Taking time for a solo date turned out to be really pleasant. Freedom to pick whatever food you want, eating at your own pace, and enjoying your birthday without overthinking things.
