Even though
there was a big hype about ramen in 2013, my husband and I never got into
that. Just to see what all the fuss was
about we decided to look for a ramen place.
We chanced upon
Ikkoryu Fukuoka Ramen in Powerplant Mall in Makati. It was 4pm and the place
was empty. The ramen noodles cost about
P380 for a bowl.
We ordered
YUZU-TAMA Tonkotsu P 380, Gyoza P230, and Yaki Tonkotsu P280. The YUZU ramen
turned out to be spicy and eating a bowl of it will surely clear your nose if
you currently have a cold. The soup
tastes well rounded with many other flavors aside from its’ spiciness. It was
indicated in the menu that this ramen has one of the spices from the Kyushu region
of Japan. The ramen also comes with
pork, nori, egg, and spring onions. The
gyoza was just ok. For me, gyoza tastes
the same in all the Japanese restaurants.
No big difference there. The Yaki Tonkotsu was a big plate of stir-fried
ramen noodles mixed with pork and vegetables such as cabbage, carrot and monggo
sprouts. When you order the waiter asks how you like your noodles cooked. You can choose from hard, normal or soft.
They give a
really big portion of noodles, so value for money is good. Also, we were still full by 8pm even though
we ate around 4-5pm.
Overall, the cost for 2 customers
is just under P900. Service was quick, but not sure how fast you would get your
order during rush hour.
