💀 Tantanmen Trauma at Ramen Wave, Marikina?! Worth it ba o Lugi? 🍜🚫

💀 Tantanmen Trauma at Ramen Wave, Marikina?! Worth it ba o Lugi? 🍜🚫 Grabe, I really wanted to like Ramen Wave sa Narra St., Marikina. Aesthetic? ✔️ Cubicle setup? Cute and IG-worthy? ✔️ But sadly, the food? ❌ Eh.

Umorder ako ng Tantanmen at Chicken Karaage. ‘Yung tantanmen, medyo disappointing. Okay lang yung lasa, pero sobrang lapot nung broth parang kare-kare level thick, not even kidding. Hindi siya yung rich na lapot ha, more like na-evaporate na tubig sa sabaw. Not for me, pero sige, hindi ko siya tatawaging “pangit” just not balanced. Kaya pa i-improve.

Chicken karaage? So-so. Crispy? Kinda. Flavorful? Meh. But the real turn-off? UNHYGIENIC VIBES. 😫 Lahat ng cubicles may natirang stagnant water pitchers from other customers like, hello?! Ang gross. Dapat fresh dapat 'yan. Honestly, napabili tuloy ako ng bottled water na ginto ang presyo ₱40 for the smallest bottle?! Kala ko ₱14 lang! 

Tapos ‘yung plain rice? ₱50. What the actual?? Dinaig pa niya ang mga hotel buffet sa price, pero the rice? Walang special. Like seriously.

So yeah, privacy = good, vibes = pang-IG, but food and sanitation? Yikes. Will I go back? NOPE. I’m here to eat ramen, not gamble with stagnant water and overpriced rice.
