Touhenboku Ramen

Elevating ramen beyond broth and noodles, Touhenboku Ramen works tirelessly to bring Japan’s soul food to Toronto through their authentic noodles and traditional gyoza dumplings.

The secret to Touhenboku Ramen’s exceptional flavour is in the Japanese slow-cooked chicken broth of their signature ramen dish. Choose between thick or thin noodles, chicken or pork, and then watch as the traditional Japanese meal is brought to life with a soft boiled egg, a taste of seaweed, wood ear mushrooms, and fresh green onions.

Zuimei Okuyama, owner and chef, mastered the art of traditional ramen among other Japanese dishes throughout his time at Shokuno dojo cooking school in Japan, and his first Touhenboku just outside Tokyo. Far from flashy or overstated, Touhenboku Ramen has made a name for itself through reputation and a quality that keeps Toronto eaters returning, and new faces coming in from all across the city.
