🍜 Vancouver's "Legendary" Ramen King? My Honest Review
I finally tried Ramen Danbo—the spot everyone calls "Vancouver's ramen heaven"! The tiny shop was packed with a constant line of devotees... but did it live up to the hype? 🍽️ What I Ordered Miso Ramen + Lunch Set ($18~) Customizable noodles (soft/hard) & broth richness (nice touch!) 👍 The Good ✅ Broth flavor was solid (if you like rich, porky tonkotsu) ✅ Tender chashu (though only 2 thin slices 😢) 👎 The Not-So-Good ❌ Broth was overly greasy—I’d ask for "light oil" next time ❌ Missing basics: No nori, no ajitama (ramen crimes!) ❌ Lunch set felt like a scam: "Curry rice" = just sauce, zero meat/potatoes "Gyoza" = vegetarian filling (where’s the pork?!) 📍 Ramen Danbo 1833 W 4th Ave, Vancouver "Worth a try if you love ultra-rich broth… but manage expectations!" #VancouverRamen #OverhypedOrWorthIt #FoodieRealityCheck
