Bringing Penang’s Famous Flavors To Japan

Founded in Penang in 2011, MyKuali has spent more than a decade developing authentic Malaysian food products.

The company became especially well known as the creator of the world’s first Penang White Curry Instant Noodles, helping introduce one of Malaysia’s most iconic dishes to global audiences.

To bring these products to Japan, Higashimaru worked closely with MyKuali, repeatedly testing and refining the noodles and soup while preserving the authentic Penang taste that Malaysians know and love.

The result is a product that stays true to its Malaysian roots while meeting Japanese quality standards.

Three Flavors To Choose From

1. MyKuali Penang White Curry Noodles

For many Malaysians, this is the flavor that needs no introduction. The rich combination of chili paste and creamy coconut milk creates a spicy yet smooth broth that closely resembles the famous Penang White Curry Mee experience.

Perfect for those moments when you miss the bold flavors of Malaysia.

Halal Certified For Peace Of Mind

One important point for Muslim consumers is that these products are halal certified by JAKIM, Malaysia’s official halal certification authority.

For Muslims living in Japan, finding convenient halal-certified products can sometimes be challenging. Having a familiar Malaysian brand available through Japanese distribution channels provides an additional option for quick meals at home.

Easy To Prepare

Preparation is simple:

  1. Boil 350ml of water.
  2. Cook the noodles for about 3 to 3.5 minutes.
  3. Add the included seasoning packets.
  4. Mix well and serve.

For an extra Malaysian-style experience, add boiled eggs, vegetables, seafood, or your favorite toppings.

Many fans also enjoy adding rice to the remaining soup after finishing the noodles, allowing them to enjoy every drop of flavor.

A Taste Of Home When You Need It Most

Living abroad often makes us appreciate familiar flavors even more.

Whether you are a Malaysian student, working professional, long-term resident, or simply someone who loves Malaysian food, MyKuali Penang Noodles offer a convenient way to enjoy authentic Penang flavors without leaving Japan.

If you have been missing the taste of home, this may be one of the easiest ways to bring a little piece of Penang back to your dining table.
