The search for the best ramen places in Cebu goes on and this time around, a chance visit to IT Park (a place I honestly avoid most of the time because of the traffic condition) led me to yet another recommended place called Barikata Ramen Bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As always, I had to order their specialty and thankfully, they actually had one that comes in spicy – the Aka Tonkotsu Red you can see below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"barikata
Barikata Ramen’s Aka Tonkotsu Red for Php 515.00 per serving.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The only thing memorable about this ramen is the prominent ginger taste. I can’t remember any other ramen so far that I can taste that much ginger on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The broth was good, not Bari-uma thick and definitely not Yushoken’s seafood ramen tasty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The serving size is about the same with Bari-uma’s Bari-Uma\u2019s Zeitaku-Uma Ramen<\/em> but the latter had a lot more meat and on it as you can see below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"bari
Bari-uma’s toppings loaded specialty ramen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Later I found out that the Japanese word “barikata” actually meant “very hard”. This describes the ramen’s firmness which supposedly makes it a high quality one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, I honestly did not find the noodle to be that much harder or specially good compared to others I’ve tasted so far. If it was harder, I would say at most only about 20% harder but more like 10%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do take not I’m more into the broth not the noodles in my ramen that’s why I hated the seafood ramen I got from Sachi which had 90% noodles and 3 shrimps on it as you can see below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Sachi’s seafood ramen that can’t even go near what Yushoken’s seafood ramen has to offer.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All that said, for Php 515.00, this particular ramen wasn’t at all at par even with chaper alternatives. I even dare say Sachi’s tonkotsu has a great chance at besting this overall but this the latter I still have to visit again to make sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, here’s my current rankings so far for the best ramen in Cebu:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Yushoken Ramen<\/a><\/li>
  2. Bari-Uma Ramen<\/a><\/li>
  3. Ramen Dojo<\/li>
  4. Suzukaze Japanese Restaurant<\/li>
  5. Sachi Ramen<\/a><\/li>
  6. Barikata Ramen<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    As a restaurant however, judging from the menu and their prices along with the 4.6 out of 5 stars on their Facebook page<\/a>, I believe the restaurant is quite a bang for your buck for most of its offerings apart from the ramen I had.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That plus the fact that the staff here were especially accommodating makes it a place I will definitely give another go although it won’t be one that comes to mind again when it comes to ramen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
