| - Sansotei or Konjiki?: For me, these are the two best ramen joints in the area, and I say pay the extra few dollars for Konjiki.
The Order:
Signature Shoyu Ramen
Roasted Garlic Ramen
Chicken Karaage
Pork Belly Don (rice)
The Reason:
Having Tried both Roasted Garlic Ramens at Sansotei and Konjiki, I can say that I liked Konjiki's roasted flavor more, but I liked the base broth more at Sansotei.
However, I really suggest not ordering this, and go for the Signature clam/chicken/pork broth. It is great!. Best tasting broth I've tasted in all of Toronto, and I easily cleaned my bowl completely.
Konjiki's bowls are also deceptively large, as it holds more than you'd think.
I was starving waiting in line for 30mins, and planned to order extra noodles if I could, but never ended up needing to. I was quite full even before getting to my rice and Karaage.
The Karaage and Pork Belly Don are also very good, but honestly don't compare to the ram8en. The pork belly don did have a nice unique ginger taste to it though. I'd rather just order two Signature Ramens next time!
Conclusion: Definitely my preferred ramen place as parking is convenient, but until the hype dies down, I'd be okay with eating Sansotei for my next craving til I can make this place a regular without the 30min waits for seating.
Also noticing im getting thirstier by the second I write this review, so don't forget to drink lots of water!
