What started as a venture between friends has now become a sensation at Harry Pan Asian Corner. Located amidst Mumbai’s bustling street food hubs, Harry Pan Asian Corner has introduced locals to the flavours of Japan with its mouthwatering ramen offerings. The stall, founded by four friends, has quickly become a go-to spot for those looking for something different from the usual spicy and tangy fare that Mumbai is known for.
