Tori-San Ramen

For new accounts, DoorDash is offering a promotional 50% off your first order (up to $20 off with code 50JUNCA). I took a look at some things in my area and decided to try out Tori-San Ramen. 

Left to Right: Black Garlic Ramen, Original Tori Paitan Ramen and Red Spicy Ramen ($15 each)

6 Chicken Wings $9, Red Spicy Ramen and Original Tori Paitan Ramen
Chicken wings were okay, but definitely on the pricier side (and nothing spectacular about them)
Original ramen came with pork cha shu, ramen noodles, scallions, red onions and seaweed and it was good because the broth was really flavourful. I was a little surprised to read after that it was 100% chicken broth since it was so rich, fatty and creamy (it'd be something I'd expect from a pork or beef broth rather than chicken since most chicken broths are pretty clear). It was really filling and tasty. The spicy ramen was good too since it had the same base but also included spicy paste, sweet corn and bok choy. The ramen noodles were also good! They survived the delivery test and didn't get too soggy/mushy from being overdone and instead, they maintained a bite to them. 

Black Garlic Ramen 
Personally, I thought this was overkill of garlic - it was REALLY garlicky with roasted garlic and garlic in the broth. It was way too much for us, we eventually had to "wash" the noodles in another broth to eat them since the flavour was so strong. 

We realized after the seaweed was included as part of the cutlery items (the seaweed was placed into white paper bags which we didn't notice)
