ComputerGuy Posted September 10, 2018 Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 Just west of Donas-Donuts, there are a few food trucks. Saturday evening after enjoying the amazing globos, we headed over (cold and rainy though it became). Oddly, the two big ones were closed before 8, but I guess that's the way they operate. So we stepped into a tarp-covered joint called RAMEN. Run by a Mexican Brit named Brett, it serves a very small menu of Ramen soups: one with pork, one without. And a curry wrap, which was not available, so they gave us edamame instead cooked in butter and soy. Deelish. The soup was very tasty and very interesting. The pork slices are wrapped with their own fatty exterior, marinated, and then flash-grilled using a butane torch. That produced a uniquely tasting bit of meat. The rest was comprised of a $3-peso package of ramen noodles from WalMart, and some yummy veg and broth. At 70p for the edamame and 130p for the ramen, it was seriously over-priced, but it tasted great and I was full. I'll go back, but I'll really have to be in the mood to pay that price, I think.

kam Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 Thanks CG, this is in our 'hood and, while we usually go with Tacos Arabe, ramen is fine when you are hungry, don't want to cook and everything is closed. We'll try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
