"Reason to line up all over again - the NEW Sansotei Tomato Ramen!\n\nI've been a loyal customer since they first open, and this is the first time I ventured outside of the Tonkotsu comfort zone and tried their new invention.\n\nIncredible. The broth has very refreshing, slightly seafood-ginger sweet, unmistakably tomato taste. The noodles (I always get the thick ones so it stays al dente throughout the 5 minutes that it takes me to finish the bowl) texture was consistent. As with their Tonkotsu, there are layers of aromatics that hits you before you taste that first spoonful - giving you that 'oh so satisfying' first impression.\n\nTo top everything off - you still have that sliced perfectly cooked soft boil egg - with yolk so smooth you literally dream about it at night -- and get this, a perfectly cooked scallop + thin pork is the jewel on top. I'd easily say the scallop + pork, if served on a tasting menu, would have justified the entire cost.\n\nOn this visit, I've noticed that the owner lady is working (hard!) at the location. She typically stays at the Dundas one - so maybe service and/or food quality needed some 'straightening out'. Sorry for the pun, as I just dine there on Pride Parade Eve :)\n\nOh, we're so fortunate to have Sansotei here in Toronto. Saves me tons in airfare when that certain 'ramen crave' hits."^^ .
