Though it can be hard to find if you don’t pay close attention, Ramen Gyoza is one of my favorite personal finds in my hometown of BF Homes, Paranaque.

Another favorite of students all over Manila is Erra’s, with people raving about it far and wide, and heading there when they are in the area just to enjoy their Php60 ramen. And it’s legit, too! The Tantanmen comes highly recommended at Erra’s, and they’ve also got silog meals and other types of pulutan.
Of course, there’s always instant ramen at 7-11 and at Family Mart, too. :p Did we miss out on any cheap ramen places? Share them with us, so we can make a part two! 🙂
