14 slurp-worthy Calgary ramen bowls on Instagram

Ramen is one of those foods that is perfectly acceptable to slurp. You’ve got to dig in deep, take up that umami broth by the ladle-ful, pull up a cluster of slippery noodles, and get that goodness in your belly.

Sometimes just looking at photos of ramen, in all its shimmery, savoury, slurp-worthy glory is enough to kick-start a serious ramen craving. And when things get chilly outside, ramen is a damn good way to warm up from the inside out.

Since Calgary is a real ramen town, we’ve rounded up 14 delectable Instagram shots of some of the city’s most sought-after bowls of ramen. Dive in with your eyes here, then go get yourself some. You know you want to.

Fall is for ramen! 🍜 Got our craving satisfied at Muku. Now, I just want more. Japan trip next maybe? What ramen spot would you suggest in Japan?

Japanese Noodle House

Japanese Noodle House is by far my fav place to have Ramen. They also have the best sashimi and shitake sushi. It is run by a little family of four and each time I go I swear she gives me extra..🍣🍲

Shokunin

Hey #yyc it is lunchtime and the best thing you could do for yourself is come down to @shokuninyyc and get yourself a hot steamy bowl of ramen #yum We paired it with a pint of Okami Kasu rice beer brewed from Canadian rice brewed right here in Calgary.
