There has definitely been progress from our pandemic response and it looks like the resilient Filipino is slowly bouncing back. Stronger, braver, and ready to serve!
The appearance of new dining establishments in Rockwell alone had me confused about what I wanted to try first. Specifically curated ramen, Spanish pintxos, and specialty coffee are all on the rise. Tried these in a whole Manila minute and am happy to report, Rockwell is bustling and in full swing! May this be a good sign of the times for an industry that was badly hit by COVID-19.
Ramen Ron
This well-established authentic Ramen place is done the traditional way. Side dishes are plentiful and each ramen type whether, soupy, soupless, cold, or spicy are very well thought of and downright delicious.
Marudori
Another ramen place that specializes in chicken and everything chicken. An alternative for those who don’t eat pork.
Bar Pintxos
A fun addition to the Rockwell scene. All-day Spanish fare and a place you can walk into when that happy hour thirst beckons.
Omotesando Koffee
Japanese, clean, well-appointed, no frills just quality.
