| - +.5 for service
Kyouka is a newcomer for the recent increase of ramen restaurants in Markham. I recently gave this place a try after passing by it, originally thinking Big Jack's was still at that location.
The place was quite full for a Tuesday at 9pm, but it could've been because of the hype behind this place. It's ramen, everyone loves it, and they wanna be one of the first to try!
I had the Kyouka Ramen, original. I know some people complained about the abundance of fat even when they ordered less fat, but seeing how photos showed the broth being quite light in general, I decided to go for the creamyness.
Food came out rather slow, but not unbearably slow. The portions were good; not Kinton level good, but more than Sansotei/Touhenboku quantity. The ramen was different from the ones I'm used to, but I generally liked it. The broth was definitely creamy, and I can see where people would complain about the fat as there was quite a bit oozing once I completed my meal.
Service was great even though it was a bit slow, you can tell they were understaffed for a Tuesday night. It's definitely better than Touhenboku IMO, but Markham's ramen experience just isn't up to par with its neighbour down south yet.
