Searching for a ramen place that you could really enjoy slurping knowing what you are slurping is authentic? Well, you have got to love this cozy ramen place in Alabang.

Butamaru won’t be what it is today if not for the owner’s passion for ramen which even led to his month long mission to Kyushu Island in Japan, starting with his sampling of tonkotsu broth inspired by the many variations of the Hakata style ramen for 16 hours.

From there, he met Master Artisan Sugimura of Menko Noodle Company in Oita and learned the art of making noodles; then came the birth of Butamaru, a lovely, cozy ramen shop that encourages you to enjoy your delicious bowl of ramen as soon as it is served.

But before digging into their ramen, grab some of their kickstarters such as their Gyoza (Php 140) which is Japanese style pork dumpling, their Curry Gyoza (Php 150) which is of aburi chashu with special curry paste, their Toriten (Php 220) which is tempura style fried chicken famous in iota with ponzu sauce, and their Katsugyozaki (Php 160) which is a plate of golden breaded gyoza balls, plated as takoyaki.
