Kinton Ramen 5 located at 396 Church Street in Toronto

What a pleasure and privilege it was to attend another blogger event hosted by Stella and Kinka Family and dine at Kinton Ramen 5!  Kinton Ramen was the very first Japanese ramen house to set foot in Toronto back in 2013.  They were all the rage and everybody wanted to set foot in their first store on Baldwin Street (now dubbed “Kinton Ramen 1”) to slurp on their delicious ramen broths and become a Kinton Bowler.   Continue reading
