Kenzo was my first bowl of Ramen years ago when it was one of only a few places in the downtown core. I've never been into Kinton. I think their broth is over the top. Sansotei is pretty good and for a while I was a convert. But I went back to Kenzo in its first location tonight and remembered what I always loved about it. The Tonkotsu broth is classically hearty but has a lot of subtlety as well. The option of blackened garlic added to the broth is nice. King of Kings still reins supreme. Only complaint is that the sprouts tasted a bit strange.
I was there with my two month old and our big stroller. They were very happy to accommodate us and we're very friendly even though it meant we took up a table for four. It was our first meal out since the little one was born and they made it such a nice experience.
