This is a hidden gem in Richmond Hill. This ramen joint is run by a very sweet Chinese couple and although it's no Santouka, it's pretty damn good. I always get the Hokkaido ramen and my boyfriend gets the spicy ramen level 2. Beware of level 3. My boyfriend can eat spicy food, but he suffered a little from the level 3.
The real star at this restaurant is the pork cutlet. At $5, it is super crispy, fresh and moist. This is the best cutlet ive ever had and I've been to a lot of Japanese and Korean restaurants. The gyozas are amazing too. Legitimately pan fried. Not the cheap deep fried stuff like the other restaurants.
Waitress is the owners wife. She is very sweet and works hard. Always makes sure we have tons of ice water (with straws).
Only drawback is the beer is super expensive. My boyfriend ordered a Sapporo and it cost $7. Definitely not worth it.
All in all, best ramen house in Richmond hill and Markham. Saves you the drive downtown, free parking, and no lineup.
