Ramen-ya has always been the kind of spot I'm happy to have in my neighbourhood. Reasonably priced, delicious food, in a cosy setting. But lately on my walks up the street I've noticed Ramen-Ya has expanded into the space next door, transforming from cosy hole in the wall to full blown restaurant. I dropped in for a late lunch and got to check out the new space and was quite impressed. The service was very quick, but I wonder how the kitchen can handle a huge room full of people? I guess I'll have to come back to check it out.
On this visit I had a spicy beef ramen and it was absolutely delicious. I feel like they've stepped up their game since my last visit some time ago. Not sure exactly what was different, but it tasted even better than it usually does.
