Wagamama Restaurant Review

Me and Reece got invited to a joint birthday meal that our friends were having at Wagamama last week. (Again, I’ve forgotten to take pictures of the food so all the pictures below are from the internet).

Wagamama is known as a British-headquartered restaurant chain, serving pan-Asian food in the style of a modern Japanese ramen bar. In Japanese, their name means ‘naughty child’, or ‘one who is wilful and determined’. A good example of that determination is the art of ‘kaizen’, meaning ‘good change’. This philosophy sits right at their heart. It shapes every dish they create, and pushes them to find better ways in all that they do. Restless spirits. Forever creating and making things better.

As we got there, the theme of the restaurant was really simple and very lively. The waiters that were serving us were very polite and helpful. 

For mains, I ordered ‘Pork Ramen’ which has ‘korean barbecued pork in a miso, ginger and chicken noodle broth. Topped with seasonal greens, wakame, menma and half a tea-stained egg’. 

Reece ordered ‘Grilled Duck Ramen’ which has ‘tender, boneless duck leg splashed with citrus ponzu sauce in a vegetable noodle soup. Dressed with chilli, pea shoots and coriander’

Reece also ordered two side dishes which are: ‘Chili Squid’ which is ‘crispy fried squid dusted with shichimi. Served with a chilli coriander dipping sauce’ and ‘Duck Qyoza’ which are five tasty fried duck dumplings served with a dipping sauce.

For desert, I ordered something really simple which was ice cream covered in chocolate sauce (I don’t remember the name of the desert) and Reece ordered ‘Banana Katsu’ which is ‘banana in panko breadcrumbs with a scoop of salted caramel ice cream’.

For drinks, I had Coke Cola (as usual) and Reece got ‘Super Green Juice’ which has apple, mint, celery and lime. To me it taste like green starburst (If you’re from the United Kingdom, then you will know what the green starburst taste like). 

The food was amazing, I really enjoyed eating my pork ramen because I could taste different flavours and the soup was very tasty. However, I prefer Reece’s meal because his soup tasted even better than mine. The desert were really nice as well, again I prefers Reece’s than mine because his tasted better. The sides were really good, they were fresh and crispy which I love. The dips that the two sides come along with really go well with the sides. 

I recommend you guys to try this place because the food from here are amazing and I’m hoping to eat there soon because I can’t get enough of their ramen! It really affordable, especially when the food are cooked really well.

Speak to you guys soon.
