Heard of the book, “Chicken Noodle Soup for the Soul”? I read two versions of it in High School. With all the good ramen bars, opening left and right in the Metro, somebody should be able to come up with a version, Ramen for the Food Soul. Last Sunday, I met with the Foodie Club to try out this new ramen place located in Burgos Circle / Forbestown area at the Fort. I’ve asked around and people have actually heard of Wrong Ramen.
I almost would have missed it, with all the ramen restaurants sprouting. But I didn’t, since Wrong Ramen, first, has its catchy name, triggering my inquisitive mind as to why they would name a restaurant as anything wrong. With what Wrong Ramen can offer, their concept sticks since it is right in all the Wrong places. Confused yet? Turns out, it is a delicious confusion.
Wrong Ramen for the most part is based on homemade Hokkaido style ramen soups. It’s this Japanese dish of noodles in well-prepared broth, often garnished with small pieces of meat and vegetables. Daringly, they have taken the bold path of attributing creative spins to their menu dishes.
I invited my Church friend Charles, who loves Japanese cuisine, to check out Wrong Ramen with me and the F Club.
On the Table
Chasu Rice Rolls Php 140
Shredded Chasu rolled in rice wrappers and served with ponzu sauce on the side. This was one of our starters and I appreciate starting with something light.
Since it’s a fresh roll and not fried, its wrapper has a cool touch on the tongue, refreshing but it surprised you with a speck of pork taste. If you like Vietnamese spring rolls, this is the “wrong” Japanese version and much tastier.
