And the saga continues. Menya Shishido at B.LAND, Petaling Jaya, is back with another wacky food combo, and this time they’re combining traditional Japanese flavours with the best of Italian cuisine. On 11 Jul 2023, the ramen restaurant announced their latest creation— pizza ramen.
Menya Shishido has been gaining a lot of traction over the past year for their unique limited edition ramens. Some applaud their creativity in coming up with these never-before-seen combinations, while a handful of netizens are begging the eatery to stop.
This time, they’re collaborating with Pepo Pizza, a neighbouring Italian restaurant. The base of this dish is a creamy tonkotsu broth enhanced with spicy basil and tomatoes. The ramen is then topped off with chasu, an egg, cherry tomatoes, black olives, bell peppers, basil, and even parmesan cheese!
The showstopper of every bowl served is, of course, a slice of Pepo Pizza’s chicken pepperoni pizza. Pepo’s pizzas are cooked in a wood fire oven, so you know you’re only getting the best of the best with this dish.

Just a month prior, they offered flaming ramen at their Gasket Alley outlet, and a month before that was reserved for their durian ramen. The former included literally setting the ramen ablaze, and the latter was served in an actual durian husk.
In Mar 2023, Menya Shishido came up with a menu item that’s perhaps closest to what’s on offer now, which was croissant ramen. Similar to the pizza ramen, the croissant iteration allowed customers to dip delicious bread into the rich broth.
For Valentine’s Day, they released their chocolate ramen. Before that, their experiments didn’t occur as often such as the matcha ramen that first made waves in 2021. Back in 2020, they decided to fuse local ingredients into their menu by creating their nasi lemak dry ramen.
If you’re keen on trying this dish, drop by Menya Shishido before time runs out!
