It was a drizzling night so the family was craving for a hot bowl of ramen. We've been passing by Ukkokei Ramen Ron for quite some time so we finally went in to check out what they have to offer.
It has a large bright signs. It has a nice parking area so it was very convenient. I'm not sure if its correct but I think Ukkokei means black chicken or what the Chinese refer to as Silkie Chicken. Anyone who speaks Japanese here? And, the kanji of their logo is the same as the Chinese word for "Dragon".
Ukkokei Ramen Ron offers the traditional Japanese Ramen House ambiance. Japanese characters are every where.
We were led to our table with lowered tables, cushions and a pit for leg space. After removing our shoes, we proceeded to our table.
Food
When we asked for their best seller, our server told us that it depends on our taste preference. She said most of their Japanese clients prefer Shio to appreciate the broth while Filipinos would opt for Shoyu because they enjoy tasty ramen .
Shoyu
♥ Ukkokei Shoyu (300 php) |
Shio
♥ Ukkokei Nira Ninniku Shio (360 php) |
Ukkokei Shio Butter Corn (350 php) |
Miso
Ukkokei Miso Butter Corn (360 php) |
Ukkokei Nira Ninniku Karamiso (360 php) |
Special
♥ Tan Tan Men (390 php) |
Upon ordering the Tan Tan Men, the server will check if it is available first because Ukkokei Ramen Ron only serves 10 bowls of this per night and they don't only have this after 6 p.m. This is the best version of Tan Tan Men I have ever tried. I love the spiciness level, the sweetness of the miso and the flavorful broth taste.
♥ Yaki Gyoza (120 php) |

Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Ukkokei Ramen Ron is one of the best ramen house in town! Although their ramen is oilier than usual, the flavors it offers is so wholesome that it is unmatched by any ramen place. A hot bowl of ramen is enough to satisfy a hungry person. Although the price is a bit steep, you'll find it reasonable because of their special broth. It's one ramen house that I would definitely want to go back to. I highly recommend it.
