Ramen Ron x Pilya’s Kitchen: Limited Period Spicy Collaboration and More (Rockwell Makati City)
56 Estrella, Makati City, Metro Manila, Philippines
Aside from the rainy day mood, another reason for us to go all the way to Ramen Ron is its limited period spicy collaboration with Pilya's Kitchen.
Food
A Spicy Collab Ramen Ron x Pilya's Kitchen (Aug 5-31, 2026)
As a spicy lover, how can we ever missed this? This is probably the very first spicy collaboration between two Michellin-recognized establishments in the Philippines.

| ♥ Mapo Tofu Ramen (690 php) |
The Mapo Tofu Ramen features Ramen Ron's silky fowl shoyu (soy sauce based) broth and ramen noodles combined with Pilya's Kitchen's Mapo Biang less the signature hand-pulled biang biang noodles.

| ♥ Mapo Tofu Ramen (690 php) |
We actually enjoyed this contemporary fusion dish of the Japanese ramen and Chinese mapo tofu noodles. Because Pilya's Kitchen's mapo tofu sauce clings wonderfully to Ramen Ron's ramen noodles, each slurp unfolds with a full-bodied flavor profile, accompanied by a lingering numbing mala sensation.

It was difficult to draw the line between the silky fowl shoyu broth and the mapo tofu sauce because they seemlessly blend together. The silky fowl shoyu broth brought out the richness of the mapo tofu sauce with minced pork, soft tofu cubes, fermented black beans and sichuan peppercorns.

| ♥ Mala Gyoza (370 php) |
We've always had an inkling that the Japanese gyoza would go well with the Chinese chili oil. But, we never dared to experiment.

Even if we did, we're pretty sure we couldn't have executed it as well as this Mala Gyoza. There no better way to compliment the Ramen Ron's plump and juicy pan-fried dumplings than to tantalize the palate with the distinct tongue-numbing spicy mala tingle.
Chef's Recommended Ramen Toppings
 |
| ♥ Ukkokei Beef Shoyu Ramen (840 php) |
At Ramen Ron, you can order the original version of the ramen and add some Extras as your preferred topping or go with the Chef's Recommended Ramen Toppings. As an example, the original Ukkokei Beef Shoyu Ramen (at 690 php) is the silky fowl ramen topped with thinly sliced ribeye, steak fat bits, bamboo shoots and onion leeks. If you go with the Ukkokei Beef Shoyu Ramen (at 840 php) under the Chef's Recommended Ramen Toppings, you can get the same ramen with Aji Tamago (85 php) and Nori (65 php).
P.S. The CPA did the math and has verified that there's no premium when you avail of the chef's recommendation. The Extras are charged the same way. 😆
Sweets
We were happy with our choice — Matcha Chilled Mochi.

| Matcha Chilled Mochi (140 php) |
The Chilled Mochi comes in 3 variants: Matcha, Milk and Mango.

Drinks
 |
| Grape Fruit Shake (250 php) |
The drinks are pleasant enough but are only recommended if you have a little extra budget to spare.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Ramen Ron has consistently a comforting contemporary take on ramen. The limited period spicy collaboration was executed just as well.
