Food Tripping: Wrong Ramen and Farmacy

Ramen and Ice Cream Saturday


Yes we know this is a weird combination. Haha

So last Saturday, me with a few friend when to Wrong Ramen in Burgos Circle. So Why that name? 

Read what ramen is:

“Ramen (/ˈrɑːmən/) (ラーメン rāmen?, IPA: [ɽäꜜːmeɴ]) is a Japanese noodle soup dish. It consists of Chinese-style wheat noodles served in a meat- or (occasionally) fish-based broth, often flavored with soy sauce or miso, and uses toppings such as sliced pork (チャーシュー chāshū?), dried seaweed (海苔 nori?), kamaboko, and green onions. Nearly every region in Japan has its own variation of ramen, from the tonkotsu (pork bone broth) ramen of Kyushu to the miso ramen of Hokkaido. “
~ Wikipedia

Here is the menu:


The menu is pretty simple and not a lot to choice from with is good for me 



We ordered the following:


Chashu Rice Roll (125 php) is shredded pork rolled with veggies and wrapped using rice paper, which you can dip in ponzu sauce. It’s very light and it is nice to share with friends.


Naruki anf her FU ramen

Their best selling ramen is the FU Ramen (425 php), no I’m not cursing that ramen, but it is all wrong. It has bacon, spam, egg and cheese with the noodles in a pepper and garlic broth. As the menu say is “breakfast in liquid form”

Bell's order is the Bacon and Cheese Katsu

Bacon and Cheese Katsu (295 php) is a thick slice of bacon with cheese with sweet wasabi, I think this will be good with rice but this is a ramen house so no rice for you XD

Light Tonkutsu Ramen for me

I got the Tonkutsu Light (290php) a less heavy version of their Tonkutsu rich, if you do not want to feel too full this is the ramen for you.

There are a few things I want to try the next time I go back to Wrong ramen, one is the the FU ramen and the other is the Poop of the gods (135php), that’s their special dessert. It’s Belgian Chocolate on top of sea salt and olive oil
More information on the link below

Here is that the the interior of the place
funny decor

blurry Rest Room sign 

2nd floor


Just a few blocks away, in Net Lima you will find Farmacy, No it is not a drug store. It’s an Ice cream and soda fountain shop. Although the place is set up based on old school pharmacies like the 50’s with brown cabinets that as beakers and flasks. Check it out 

If there was less lighting it feel steam punk-ish
the menu

They a have total of 20 flavors of ice cream and 8 sorbets. You can taste test all 28 flavors if you want to just don’t try it and leave XD


Don't for get dispose of you dirty spoon



We all had banana splits. The fun part is that we can customize the ice cream! Sherome and I shared the banana split the Ice cream we had in it was verve coffee, lemon custard with blueberry and my choice of candied bacon.


yes that block you see the is the candied bacon

this will welcome you
This is not about the food is was more of the company I was with XD

Food Tripping: Size Matters – Alabang Town Center


The size of something does it really matter? Yes it does in body size, shoes size and in food servings too, for me the bigger the better for food that is. XD Size Matters can help you with that.



I have been hearing a lot about this burger joint Size Matters; we went to the Alabang Town Center Branch. They serve burgers, sausages and steaks. For a burger joint that sell big burgers this place is pretty small, the shop as two seats inside and 3 tables outside. Check the photo below, I took the photo and I’m basically leaning on the glass behind me.



Enough about that let’s go to the main course the burgers! You can have a 1/4 or 1/2 pound burger pattie, next time we will try the sausages. So I got The B.S.B. Burger & Sausage Burger (Php189/269*) plus Php60 to have it in a combo (12 oz Drink and Fries). Verdict, I’m hungry again just thinking about it.

B.S.B - Burger Sausage patty with colby jack cheese, tomato, lettuce, onions and lots
garlic mushroom 


My partner got The I.B.J Italian Burger Job (Php189/269*) same size as mine and he got the combo as well.

I.B.J - Caramelize Onion on Italian sausage patty with Monterey Jack,
Garlic cream Cheese, lettuce and tomato in an oat bun  
*price for the 1/4 or 1/2 Pound respectably  


Why did I try Size Matters? I wanted to see why this place does not seem to be as well known as Zark’s or maybe I’m just someone that lives under a rock. The price is pretty much the same, the bottomless iced tea and a bigger location are the plus point of Zark’s. For Size Matters it the fact that their patties are grilled it healthier so to say. I love the smell of grilled food and even if the place itself is small I like it, it’s really fast food as you have to really go after you finished your food and there is no crazy line ^_^

 Hi there thanks for reading this. Below is the map to get to Size Matters ATC and all there contact details.

just follow the blue lines to the cinema entrance on the side,

Ps I’m not linked to anyone from Size Matters; they need to update the ATC branch Facebook Page

This is my year-end review

And yes it’s a day late for 2014



I don’t know how describe it after all I think I’m just growing old and forgetting things. It’s cliché but I think it when well. Working online, and then working both online and in a company. No being able to go to events as frequent as I use too and not being able to maintain my small online business. I got a few things for myself this year, a new computer, started a blog and tried new places with good food. This year was full of surprises like the time when my room got soaked in rain water, the time that I won tickets during a raffle, I got to join a motorcycle road trip, the trip to Baguio and the new work that I will start soon.

Now let’s go to more cliché

What have I learned this year?

1. If you want something get it as they say opportunity only knocks once (I think I know this for a long time but I did not take action)

2. If someone is nice to you it does not mean that person likes you

3. Make up makes me look prettier (yes I’m a late bloomer)

4. Letting people know how you feel is not bad

5. I suck at organizing a Photo shoot (But I know I can Improve that)

So how was the celebration last night and how will you remember 2014?



2014 has its highs and low but it was still fun and may 2015 be the same with more highs of course ^_^

Plan 2015 Well Guys and Girls

and oh Happy Blogniversary to lunasilverfyre.blogspot.com XD
