Parents should make time for dates no matter how busy they are. I think
that’s been said over and over again but with the many responsibilities on
our plate, it’s a struggle even for us to find time to have a date outside.
As such, when an opportunity presented itself, off we went to Ramen Nagi in
SM City Fairview for a much-needed quick date. Plus, I had gift certificates
with me which I won from Why We Dine’s Facebook live game.
A Quick Date At Ramen Nagi SM City Fairview
Ramen Nagi SM City Fairview’s ambiance
Ramen Nagi is admittedly one of our favorite ramen restaurants in Metro
Manila. We used to eat at Ramen Nagi near PBCom Tower (Salcedo Village) in
Makati but hadn’t done so in a long time because of the pandemic.
As for Ramen Nagi’s brand in SM City Fairview, we used to order frozen ramen
for take-out but we haven’t really tried dining in. Now that we had the chance
to eat here, the experience is somehow similar to our previous experience in
Salcedo Village. This branch in SM City Fairview is a lot busier and that is
probably because it’s a big branch. In fact, we didn’t have to wait long to be
seated.
Overall, it’s a lively branch with big groups of people eating here.
What we ordered at Ramen Nagi SM City Fairview
We ordered our favorite Butao King for Mommy Khris while I wanted to try the
Black King. We also ordered a plate of Chicken Karaage, one of the very few
chicken dishes that I can tolerate.

| Butao King |
The Butao King is as consistently delicious as the one that we tasted in Ramen
Nagi in Salcedo Village. The mildly rich broth is bursting with flavors and
beckons you to slurp it non-stop. The noodles, meanwhile, are firm to the bite
and tasted superb.

| Black King |
It was also our first time trying the Black King. It’s made of blackened
garlic and squid ink but it’s surprisingly well-balanced in terms of flavor
and not too overpowering. The Black King is also very delicious.

| Chicken Karaage |
The Chicken Karaage is the perfect side dish because it’s crunchy. We love
eating it with the shredded cabbage mixed with Japanese mayonnaise.
Epilogue
Overall, we had a great quick date at Ramen Nagi SM City Fairview. The food
was served fast and they’re really delicious. The bowls of ramen were hearty
and comforting; we’d never get tired of eating them. The service is also very
efficient so those are plus points in providing a great dining experience to
customers.
