  • So continuing on my ramen quest in toronto, I decide to go to the ramen place I heard about at J-Town in Markham. Word of advice, this place is kinda hard to find, it's actually down the alley a bit. After sitting down and hearing the people that worked there, I knew it was legit because they were all japanese... and they were wearing really cool christmas hats, which looked like you could only get them in Japan if you know what I mean (and yes I asked, and yes they were from Japan). I ordered the soy sauce soup ramen with a side of gyoza and karaage. Karaage is basically fried chicken (japanese style). It was actually my first time having it, at least being called that. The ramen was only so-so... The soup base was unimpressive and I had to keep adding a combination of hot peppers and sesame oil to it to make it taste better. The noodles were quite good though as well as the chashu. The chashu was actually very tender and you could pretty much break it apart with your tongue. Bad thing though is that there wasn't really very much "stuff" in the ramen with the noodles. For a 7.59 bowl of ramen, there were 2 pieces of chashu, half an egg, 3 sticks of bamboo and 1 slice of fish thing (ball/stick? I have no idea how to classify this). Kinda skimpy if you compare it to some of the other places. The gyoza was actually pretty good. I'm pretty sure they're homemade; they had a nice thin dough, were crunchy on the bottom and soft on the inside. I would have liked if they were a bit more crunchy on the top and not the bottom, but they were pretty good either way. The karaage was pretty good. The way they fried the chicken is with a very light batter. My best analogy to how much it's battered is how your skin looks after you lay in the sand at the beach (Sorry i was just in mexico, it's the first thing that came to mind). Otherwise, it was nicely flavoured, however I did find that if you let it cool down it did not taste very good anymore. Try to eat it quickly if you order it. All in all this place really only serves ramen. I mean there is a udon side of the menu, but most people that come here from the reviews seem to be getting ramen. I'd say that for the price you're paying, you can probably do better. Maybe if I come back I'll try the pork bone soup base. I have a feeling it may be better.
