Vancouver: Tonkotsu Ramen

Tonkotsu Ramen:  Close to the bike rental shops outside Stanley Park, this classic hole in the wall noodle restaurant caught our eye.  When we inquired about a table for three, the waiter said in a not so convincing way to come back in 20 minutes.  We are glad we did.   Upon returning, we were seated at a small but cozy table next to the front window.  There we could watch the many passers by and prospective diners also being told to come back in 20 mins.  The menu was pretty straight-forward and I opted for the spicy miso with noodles, pork chashu, and soft boiled egg.  This miso was the real deal, and the rich flavors and spice lingered for hours and in a good way.
