casual dining,
Hokkaido Ramen Santouka (Eastwood)
When it comes to ramen, Hokkaido Ramen Santouka has been my place to be. One Saturday night after my masters class, my sisters and I decided to have a quick dinner at their Eastwood branch.
Located at the second floor of Eastwood Mall, Libis, Quezon City, it is my first time to dine at this branch which was a bit hard to find since it is located at a dead-end corner of the mall. This branch has an available balcony dining area where some customers could smoke.
(See my previous post: Hokkaido Ramen Santouka)
Here are the ones that we ordered:
Shio Ramen. Salt flavor. My all-time favorite and also one of their best sellers and signature flavor (See my previous post: Hokkaido Ramen Santouka). Their ramen are best with tamago but at that time, they had none available.
Kara-Miso Ramen. Spicy soybean, paste flavor. One of their best sellers as well. Also good, with the right amount of spice. Tip: if you want the ramen to be spicier, they provide chili sauce which you could add to the ramen.
Sake Ikura Gohan. Grilled Salmon & Salmon Roe Rice Bowl. The grilled salmon is served in flakes which gives a softer texture, The roe complements well with the dish. The taste is also just right--not too seasoned and not bland either. It looks like a small rice bowl upon serving but it can actually sate you.
Gyoza. Tastes average. I find the gyoza a bit overpriced for its taste and amount of serving.
Iced Tea (Left): I was surprised that it looked like shake but tastes like your ordinary iced tea—appetizing, though. Iced Green Tea (Right); Tastes like regular green tea—no sweeteners nor honey provided.
Overall, I had a good experience at their branch (the service, the ambiance, and most especially, the food). However, I do hope that they are able to have ample supply of ingredients for their dishes. Before we came up with our orders (yes, even the shio ramen; for the sake of blogging I wanted to try another dish but it was not available), there were a lot of meals from the menu that we wanted but was not available at the moment.
