Ramen at Shirokiya

A couple of weeks ago my mom and I had lunch at Shirokiya.  I wanted to try out the ramen, so I picked this place.

I got the Miso Ramen with Gyoza.   The ramen was good; the gyoza not too good.  All in all, it wasn't worth the 13 bucks I ended up paying.

I went to shirokiyas bc of all the promos for the ramen, but when I got there I could see it wasnt worth they were charging. I was hoping for some authentic noodles and it was sun noodles. So why the big ticket price ? Perhaps it to pay for the airfare of the ramen chefs ? ;O)

Sorry it wasnt a good experience.

I was excited about trying the curry but it didnt look so "hot" in both respects...
Wonder how shirokiyas is going to keep up this new format, the other booths were lacking in variety and customers :(

13 bucks? wow...you can go to Tenkaippin for cheaper. You should go try the ramen at Goma Ichi on Keeaumoku....it's the best! = )

The pat of butter is different and the corn...looks good though

Anon, I guess I was expecting more, hence the disappointment.

Mmiissee, I have yet to try Goma Ichi. I've heard really good things about the place.

I know Anon, me too.

Betty, the ramen actually was good, but just not worth the price.

You should try Yotteko-ya too! It's at McCully shopping center. That's my favorite!
