Last May, I think, my friends and I had lunch at Ramen Nagi in SM MoA. Goodness, why do I have so many food pictures lying around? Anyway...
It was a very hot day so sitting outside was out of the question. We waited a bit to get some seats, which is a pretty common thing, but the dining area inside was small. Seat sharing seemed to be a pretty common thing here. I don't really mind; it was just that at the time another friend was coming later and I was anxious she wouldn't get to sit with us.
Coming in the shop we were boisterously greeted by the staff. It was startling. And they did this every time somebody came in and somebody went out. It was cute, and slightly unnerving, like, 'Please don't yell at me so suddenly, so says my poor heart.'
They have a different ordering process. If you're ordering ramen you have to fill up a form. You can sort of customize your ramen.
Ramen Nagi is too expensive for me, I think it cost me somewhere around Php500 for a bowl of ramen and a drink. The bowl is huge. This was bigger than the ramen I had in Yamazaki but I was able to finish this. The broth is milky in color with a slight thickness. My friend prefers this to the one we had at Hokkaido Ramen Santouka. In looks and taste, they are close but I found this to be less flavorful. I'm not sure my submitted checklist had anything to do with the overall taste though.
My friend, who came in later, sat next to me as the people who occupied that table just left. She shared that table with a man who had a beer with his ramen and then left. I'm not a beer drinker, I don't drink alcoholic anything, but I'm intrigued at the combination.
Their menu is somewhat limited, but there are other options for people who don't want to eat ramen or just wanted something smaller. My friend had this bowl of rice, I think, but I forgot what it was. It looks good though.
I was pretty sure I've somehow heard of Ramen Nagi before. When I came home I looked through some old newspapers and realized I did read about them before! They got mentioned in the newspaper, along with a few other restaurants, in an article about Ramen. In the article though, what they listed as Ramen Nagi's contender was the Black King. That's squid I think, I'm not sure I want that but I'm putting it on my list on things to try if I had money to blow.

Coke included for size reference. Cute bowl. Para sa mahinhin kumain.
