Oooh these look good, I love doubanjiang so my mouth was watering looking at the soup. The hot stone snoopy is also such a fun idea! I've never been to Manila, but will definitely mark this down as a spot I'd like to visit!
I am glad you were record longer clips of the bowls!! I know japan social norms doesn’t let you record longer videos of the bowls you eat there but it nice to see you show us more video of the ramen!
Hey Frank, I watched your videos before and currently watching your Kyushu series and much prefer this format. On the kyushu series I felt like you just glossed over the ramens even though you are explaining what you ate. Maybe I am a visual person but If you could include location, some shots outside and inside, chefs cooking, serving, anything interesting, your reaction while eating etc. Anyway just a thought.
Japanese restaurants, particularly ramen restaurants, tend to not allow filming inside and it can be hard to get permission. This video was done in the Philippines, so it might've been easier.
Yes, it's usually harder in Japan unless I contact the ramen shops ahead of time and arrange filming for when they're on their break. Also, Philippine ramen shops shops are much bigger than in Japan! In Japan, it's pretty much eat and get out (part of the etiquette).
Still not understanding why Frank doesn't have more followers....everything looks amazing.
Thanks for the kind words and following yourself 😃
Wow, they all look incredible! Especially the first one. And so cool they let you film in the kitchen too.👍🍜
Yes, been wanting to visit for some time and they hooked up the kitchen access!
Mabuhay and welcome back!
Thank you and happy to be back!
Great narration, so informative and descriptive.
Thank you for watching and saying that!
It's so mouth-watering just watching you eat that ramen.
Thanks for coming along!
You can tell Frank's a pro because he's wearing a pastel shirt while slurping ramen and not getting it all over his front! I would need a bib.
Haha, I had a wardrobe change midway (2 of the same shirt)...just kidding 😅. I just got lucky with my slurping!
Do make it a point to try Mendokoro Ramenba, please let us know how does it compare with the best ramens in Japan.
I've been! Did a video on Yushoken more recently - feel free to have a look!
I love Snoopy ❤that first bowl looked amazing.
It was! Snoopy was a nice touch 😃

When in Manila, definitely check them out! Hot stone Snoopy will be waiting here!

Glad you enjoyed it! I hooked up with Ramen Ron ahead time and it also helps that Manila ramen shops are much bigger than in Tokyo!
Nice to see that Ramen Ron is such a good place to eat!
It's wonderful!
I was JUST there a couple weeks ago! Probably could have shared a bowl or three. Oh well, next time.
All good (always next time) - so glad you went!
Is it me or did the video / editing style change? It's gotten even better and more appetizing to watch. Thank you for your efforts!
I have a wonderful editor to thank for that! Glad youre enjoying it 😃
@@5AMRamen Great stuff!
Welcome to Manila!
Mmm…. The Tantanmen looked great! Thats the one I would try.
It was banging!
Watching host from San Diego California ❤❤❤❤pilipino pride host I love ramen 😊😊😊😊

Mabuhay Frank -san🙏. So weird to see you talking and eating inside the actual restaurant. Who says making a UA-cam video was easy 😂
Mabuhay! Haha, it was possible this time around, as I connected with Ramen Ron ahead of time. Manila ramen shops are spacious too!
@@5AMRamen Indeed they are more spacious 👍
