I was craving for ramen while in Siargao. I knew of this place from before since I saw it on social media. Parking is easy for motorcycles, not so much for cars. Unless you want to park at Shaka. Price range is usually on the 300php to 400php range. I ordered tsukemen and tantanmen, while my kid ordered katsudon. We also ordered gyoza. The tantanmen didn't fit the range of taste I was expecting. It was a little too salty. For the tsukemen, I was looking for more depth from the dipping sauce. The noodles was a bit overcooked also. Sadly, there was also a bit of a funky smell from the food. I love ramen, and noodles in general, but I hope this shop gets it better. It may be because of hard-to-get quality meat or ingredients from the island. As for the katsudon, a bit more flavor (maybe a bit more shoyu/salt/mirin) would elevate it. My kid liked it though. The place was cool enough since it has a high roof and is beside trees. For the record, I think I'd still want to go back. Maybe. We'll see.
