Ukokkei Ramen Ron

We decided to eat at Ukokkei Ramen Ron for lunch this Tuesday. We wanted to eat something light. We arrived there around 12-ish so the place was really full of people. So were seated by the bar instead of the individual seats. Below is a picture of what the display in the bar looks like. After ordering the waitress handed us with wet towels to clean our hands and to get ready to dig in after a few minutes.



We only waited for a few minutes for our food to come out. So Ukokkei is a ramen place. They have 3 varieties of soup bases. Namely, Shoyu, Shio and Miso. I went for Shoyu which is soy sauce based. As for shio, it is salt based. So, my order came out first!

Ukokkei Shoyu Koumi (php 330)
I ordered the soy sauce based because I wanted to eat something simple. I also wanted to be safe with my order. The ramen was served super hot. It's perfect for a rainy weather. The ramen had spring onions, bean sprouts, garlic and the pork. The soup was oily but its delicious. Its my perfect bowl of ramen. The noodles were also al dente and chewy. The soup was also full of flavor. Its not too salty or too bland. The mixture was perfect.

I didn't order this dish. Chester was the one who ordered this. Sad to say but I don't really eat curry. Well, according to him you shouldn't order this dish. He said that the meat was really tough to chew on. Bottom line is just don't order this and stick with their ramen. 

Yaki Gyoza (php 120)

We also ordered their gyoza to chew on something while eating their ramen. I love to eat gyoza! Their one of my favorites. Well I have to say that their gyoza was really appetizing. It was good to munch on every bite. It doesn't look good in the picture but once you taste it, you'll love it. This dish has a make your own sauce. Mix the soy sauce, vinegar and the chili oil which can be found on the table.


Ukokkei Miso (php 300)
Since the curry was a fail, we decided to order the ukokkei miso. Everything was the same compared to the previous ramen. The soup base was just the different one. This ramen tasted garliky. The flavor was also perfect to eat. The miso soup base wasn't the one that settles at the bottom and something you'll mix in order to get the right consistency back. Overall, we liked Ukokkei Ramen Ron. We would go back to this ramen place for sure. Lastly, they don't serve dessert :(
