Head to one of the original Calgary ramen spots and enjoy a huge bowl of ramen in tonkotsu (pork) broth with negi (green onion), menma (bamboo shoots), char siu (BBQ pork belly) and spring greens. The bowl is topped with soft tamago, which is a perfectly gooey soft boiled egg. As an added bonus, ramen itself is an egg-based noodle.
This top ramen shop in Bridgeland serves both classic and new-fangled ramen bowls with considerable flair. Go with classic tonkatsu served with barbecue pork, onion, soft-boiled egg and pickled bamboo shoots or try an updated twist on the ramen theme such as the tonkatsu black, which is prepared with soft-poached egg and pork as well as black garlic oil and squid ink. Arrive early for lunch: the place does not take reservations and serves just 150 bowls a day.
