Ramen Nagi | World's First Concept Store

To all my fellow Ramen lovers out there, I'm very ecstatic to share with you that Ramen Nagi launched their first concept store here in the PH! Located at the recently opened One Bonifacio High Street development adjacent to the Philippine Stock Exchange building in Bonifacio Global City, you'll get to experience a sleeker, and more sophisticated vibe.

The new store features décor that are decidedly different from the colorful, festive aesthetic that permeates all other Ramen Nagi’s shops worldwide — born out of sketches personally made by Chef Ikuta Satoshi, the man behind Ramen Nagi. This shop combines Japanese minimalist design with an open-concept design to create an unrestrained, unfussy zen-like feel. Intimate booths and blond wood chairs line stark white walls on one side, while a marble countertop seating offers front-row views of the kitchen activity on another. In the center of the room, white lamps cheekily decorated with images of ramen bowls hang over sleek communal tables.

PORK KATSU ROLL

This concept store may look very new, but everything else remains the same! “Same menu, same customer service. You still get to enjoy your favorite Ramen Nagi noodles but in a different vibe.” - Avi Siy-Chua.

ORIGINAL KING (BUTAO)

RIGHT: TRUFFLE KING RAMEN

As a launch offering, the Ramen Nagi at One Bonifacio High Street will be the only shop to offer the Truffle King Ramen, an aromatic treat filled with the flavors of the desirable mushroom delicacy, until December. Come the new year, fans can slurp their way to a truffle-licious bowl in all the other Ramen Nagi branches across the Philippines.

I personally loved the Truffle King Ramen, with it's tasteful broth and aroma I know you guys will love this!

Originally a brainchild of Japanese chef Ikuta Satoshi, Ramen Nagi finds favor among ramen fans for its steaming bowls filled with rich broth, springy noodles and quality ingredients. The award-winning ramen chain offers four variants in its menu, namely Original King (creamy umami tonkotsu broth), Red King (spicy), Black King (with squid ink), and Green King (with basil pesto)—all served with a scrumptious slab of charred pork. Aside from these four regulars, Ramen Nagi also offers two limited-edition flavors every month.

SZECHUAN RAMEN

Patrons can also customize their own bowls based on an omotenashi sheet that lists options for the richness of soup, spiciness level, firmness of noodles, heaviness of sauce, amount of garlic, and choice of pork shoulder char shu or belly.

According to Chef Ikuta, there are three steps to eating the ramen: taste the broth, season with a generous amount of spicy sauce, enjoy the noodles and slurp to show the chef your appreciation. And at this new, more upscale outpost, loud slurping is definitely still an option.

NAGI VANILLA ICE CREAM

And end the meal with Ramen Nagi's signature dessert! How I love the combination of vanilla, chocolate and vodka! It's very subtle but it will definitely make you want more!

Chef Ikuta Satoshi and Chef Riyoichi Nishio

So to my fellow Ramen lovers now is the time to attack and devour that flavorful bowl!

Lots of love
