Momotaro Rahmen

Japanese

Some Tokyo natives treat their ramen with the same reverence Aussies afford their parmas - both seemingly simple dishes inspire cultish devotion and an endless quest for perfection. This Richmond nook offers a clutch of variations, with soup bases (such as soy, miso or chicken broth) carefully curated to match their meats or vegies, and all designed to showcase the floury, hand-made noodles dropped into the boiling mix. Serving bowls are enormous, but the place is named after a folk figure renowned for his delicious gyoza, so save room for Momotaro’s popular green-tinted dumplings containing pork or a surprising lentil-chickpea paste.
