Man, Toronto has the best lunch deals! I was in town on a Monday and caught up with two friends over lunch. We were craving ramen and since last time I tried Sansotei, my friend had a new place in mind for me to try: Raijin Ramen.
Ramen Raijin
Bamboo charcoal dark miso ramen
– Torimayo don – boiled chicken and mayo, green onions, sweet sauce and nori seaweed on rice. Nothing crazy but a nice, simple dish to compliment the ramen and salad.

Salad
– Toridashi shio ramen (chicken broth salt ramen)
Toridashi shio ramen
– Soboro don rice bowl – chicken soboro, nori seaweed and scrambled eggs on a bed of rice
– Tsuke-me ramen ($15 after added extra meat/egg/vegetables) with side bowl of Tonkotsu shoyu-dare (dipping sauce). This comes on the side and you dip your noodles in the sauce separately. My buddy only orders this every time he goes.
Tsuke-me ramen
Go for lunch, such an awesome deal! Plus they have a loyalty program where each time you order ramen, you get a stamp for each bowl. Would definitely go back to try out the other ramen bowls.

CHERRY BOB-OMBS 
The place was busy but not too packed, a nice change from most of the ramen places that I’ve been to. Very spacious with a nice, relaxed, modern vibe to it.
We were seated by the big statue and did not have to wait (sweet!). I did some research beforehand so I knew I wanted to try out the lunch deal. Two of us got the “Special Combo” lunch deal and the other ordered a special bowl of ramen.

The Special Combo includes a small ramen, rice bowl and salad (sesame and soy sauce dressing). Price is amazing ($11.95 for all that). We ordered:
