I finally got to try Ramen Ron in Rockwell. In fact, I got to try it twice.

Ramen Ron made waves recently after being included in the Michelin Selected list among restaurants in the Philippines. If I understand correctly, Ramen Ron used to be Ukokkei Ramen, which I had tried once before, in the early 2010s. While many people told me back then that the ramen there was really good, I thought it was just okay. But when the opportunity to dine at Ramen Ron presented itself, I gave it a go. I ordered the Ukokkei Shoyu Chashu Ramen, with a side of gyoza. While I thought it was good, I felt that Mendokoro's shoyu ramen was much better.

However, shortly after that, some of my friends said they wanted to try Ramen Ron so it gave me a chance to try something else on the menu. I remembered one thing I heard from my friends a long time ago about Ukokkeoi, that their best ramen is actually the Tantanmen. So on this subsequent visit to Ramen Ron and I ordered their Tantanmen. Thankfully, I did, because it was really good! While it has a spicy soup base, it isn't too hot. This, for me, is up there in terms of my favorite ramen dishes in Metro Manila. It made me understand why and how Ramen Ron could be classified as Michelin Selected.

I now look forward to revisiting Ramen Ron and enjoying their Tantanmen again. It really is very highly recommended.
