The Ramen Special: Kichitora of Tokyo

It’s been a while since we’ve had ramen — and for good reason: ramen is best done in moderation. All those carbs and oils and fatty pork can’t be good for you on a daily basis. Having said that, we thought it was high time to check out another ramen joint, this time at SM Megamall — which is a bit out of the way for us.

Kichitora is different from other joints we’ve tried so far based on one thing: instead of pork, their prime ingredient is chicken. Okay, so you might think, “What’s so unusual about that — chicken mami is a Filipino staple!”. Well to the Japanese it is, as ramen is mostly made with pork stock and topped with pork slices. To some people who shy away from the fatty goodness of pork, Kichitora’s chicken ramen is a great option.

Featuring a unique format where cosplayers are scored not just on their outfits but also on their roleplay as stylized anime maids and butlers, the competition was both frightfully serious and unexpectedly hilarious in turns.
