RAMEN RAMEN

The first edition of RAMEN RAMEN will take place in participating Montreal restaurants from October 11 to 16, 2022.

During this week, festival-goers are invited to taste a featured ramen in each participating restaurant and will be able to vote for their favorites on the Ramen Ramen Facebook page. The People’s Choice Award will be given to the ramen with the most likes. Finally, each member of a quality jury will award their favorite ramen. The goal is to offer ramen lovers an exciting offer for a week to celebrate this mythical dish.

All festival-goers are invited to the launch party at the Festival du nouveau cinéma – FNC, at the Coeur des sciences de l’UQAM, on Monday, October 10, starting at 7pm. On the program: presentation of the cult film TAMPOPO, music with DJ Shota, Suntory whisky tastings and a Ramen Nakamichi kiosk!

The public can purchase the event passport for $5 at participating restaurants and at the festival launch party. This passport allows them to take advantage of a 10% discount on the featured dish at each participating restaurant.

To promote the event and the restaurants, an interactive online map will be available on the website in early October. The event is generating a lot of buzz as there are already almost 40,000 subscribers on the Facebook event! Discover the list of participating restaurants here.

“Ramen, the most popular hobby in Japan, has overtaken sushi among international foodies in terms of popularity and coolness. In recent years, the quality of its offerings has grown dramatically in many cities around the world, supported by a growing group of fanatics. The event is meant to be a celebration of this new reign and a desire to encourage the development of ramen offerings outside of Japan.” – Thien Vu Dang, co-director.
