Thats the same place as:
I don’t really agree with the drop in quality or consistency, been going there since their first year and I don’t see a significant change.
Where's the best Asian food in Montreal?
- Thread starter Skym
- Start date
Before Ichigo Ichie opened up, there was only the Yokato Yokabai ramen shop. The main chef was Japanese and the ramen he prepared was top notch. Then, when Ichigo Ichie opened up, the chef moved over to Ichigo Ichie and there was a noticeable drop in the ramen that was served as the preparations were passed onto others. Other ramen heads that I knew at the time all agreed. I haven't been recently, so following your review Cap'tain, I'll give it another go and report back.
Yeah I will look forward to it, I know the team preparing the ramen is different but, as you mentioned, the original chef is still in the place. He is the one who elaborated their special pork broth which, imo, sets them apart from other places.Other ramen heads that I knew at the time all agreed.

Ramen, like lovely SPs, good wine, whisky, and sake, are a matter of taste and preference. To each their own and there's no wrong answer. Peace out.

Yokato Yokabai ou Ichigo Ichie, les deux restaurants communiquent par l’intérieur. On peut commander de l’alcool à Ichigo Ichie seulement, sur Rachel. M’a été conseillé par une gentille SP qui oeuvre dans une agence…
As an out of towner, who visits once a year or so, I can't say I am ultra familiar with the asian cuisine scene in Montreal. But on my last trip, I discovered an area west of Concordia University on Saint Catherine St W, that I didn't know existed. There are numerous asian restaurants scattered over the few blocks, and a few of them had long waiting lines. If anyone knows which one of these are good, please share, but the one I dined at was Gyubee, an AYCE japanese grill spot, and it was pretty great for the price. Check it out, if you are in the area:

I've been to Sichuan, China a few times.
Kan bei is above average for north american Sichuan.
We got the mapo and shui zhu yu (don't know what this is called in english / français maybe sichuan boiled fish) and suan la tang (hot and sour soup) w/ a ton of rice
Shui Zhu Yu (Sichuan Boiled Fish, 水煮鱼) is one of my favorites. before i ever had it i literally thought it was plain boiled fish, which sounded gross
i gotta check out Kan Bei!
Yes Kan Bei is the place to go for Sichuan. I always start with the hot and sour soup. Their Yang Chow is definitely above average.
Writing this I think I'll head out this weekend.
Enjoy if you do go.

I recommend Sammi Soup Dumplings if you want dumplings
I have been to Sammi Soup Dumplings. This was years ago. One advantage to eating here is you can peer into the kitchen and watch them make your dumplings.
There was another place called Qing Hua on Avenue Lincoln that is very similar to Sammi, making Soup Dumplings of similar quality. TA reviews are here:

Noodle Factory on St-Urbain in Chinatown is very solid.
Recently revisited the previously mentioned Mama Bangkok. Pleasantly impressed the carb bomb was still possibly equivalent to TWO servings in a sit down place, and 20min within the closed container, the noodles were still not steamed sogged out, still bouncy and dry, not oversauced dripping in the first place like too many places who make it poorly.
