We finally got to go to Marikina again to try out one of the many restaurants in the city. There are actually several areas where you can have good meals in the city. These include Lilac Street, the streets near and around City Hall, Gil Fernando Avenue, and the Circle Mall in SSS Village.
 |
| I usually pass the Circle Mall of SSS Village en route to my office via the Tumana route and have been curious about this ramen restaurant. |
 |
| We had an early lunch and arrived in time for the restaurant to open business for the day. |
 |
| We were the only customers so it was easy to take photos of the restaurant. The main dining area is on the 2nd floor. |
 |
| Nice clean set-up with ample space for groups |
 |
| They had lunch sets (bento) and typical Japanese desserts, which were presented to us when the waitress handed us the menus (opened to these pages). |
 |
| Menu |
 |
| Ramen and udon items in the menu |
 |
| Donburi or rice toppings for people on the go |
 |
| Other Japanese food favorites on the menu |
 |
| I had the Shiroi Ramen, which was delightful though a bit on the creamy side. That's gyoza near my bowl. We usually order gyoza to go as additional viand on the side whenever we have ramen. |
 |
| The bar set-up at the first floor allows customers to observe the kitchen. |
Shachihoko serves good food and the service was also good. To be honest, the ramen is good though not at the level of the more authentic restos (e.g., Ikkoryu Fukuoka, Hokkaido Ramen Santouka, etc.). It should satisfy your Japanese food cravings though and it is on the more affordable side.
