Tori on a rainy Friday night! What a great excuse to get the best ramen in the city and try another Vegan Chef Challenge entry! #tcveganchef The menu states that this is a Korean baby pumpkin cake while the Vegan Chef Challenge website states that it also has zucchini. Either way, it's a delicious fritter! It also has avocado, corn mayo, and pickled onion, with a lemon wedge. I was surprised that this was almost fishy in texture. It really reminded me of a crab cake. I think the lemon added to that too. I really enjoyed this! It's very unique and stands out for the rest of the entries. #pumpkin #korean #zucchini #avocado #veganmayo #lemon #appetizer #veganchefchallenge #pickledonion #unique #fritters #fried

This Bali ramen is very unique and super creamy! It's been on the menu all of the times that I've been to Tori, but I've never tried it because the super spicy Com Saw Mi Da is made partially from the Bali broth. On it's own it felt much more approachable! It's still spicy, but the tahini helps balance it out. I'm not always the biggest fan of tahini. Sometimes I find it too bitter. Here it works so well! It's nutty and super creamy. This ramen also has ground tofu, Szechuan pepper, chili oil, green oil, fried leeks, green onions, more sesame, and seasonal veggies. I love my Korean ramen here, but if I'm looking for something hearty and creamy (maybe on a snowy winter night), I might switch it up with this dish. #ramen #tahini #noodles #soup #spicy #chilioil #sesame #szechuan #peppers #leeks #greenonions #japanese #creamy #comfortfood

The Korean ramen at Tori is so great, but I thought I'd try their classic shoyu this time! This was packed with a variety of ingredients like corn, mushrooms, bamboo, seaweed, black sesame, green onion, and tofu. The ramen noodles here are pretty thin, so you can scoop up and slurp a lot with each bite! This is a great classic ramen to get on a cool day. Some sad news for Tori. Their balloon payment date is coming up at the end of September, so they may not be open much longer! It's a big bummer because this is such an amazing place to find yourself. Most of the restaurant is an old train car that is decorated beautifully. This time we sat at the bar and got to watch the kitchen work. It's incredible how such a small kitchen can put out so much good food! #ramen #noodles #tofu #corn #mushroom #mushroomlover #seaweed #greenonions #sesame #bamboo #japanese #soup

Tori's entry for the Twin Cities Vegan Chef Challenge is kimchi mac! This was one of the entries I was most eager to try. They won the challenge last year with their vegan birria ramen, which is still on the menu! This mac is made with a cheesy almond sauce and is topped with caramelized kimchi and toasted breadcrumbs. The sauce was slightly sweet which I actually enjoyed. The dish wasn't super saucy, it was just enough to cover the pasta and hold this dish together. There was a nice kick to this dish that slowly built up. I'm glad it wasn't as spicy as last year's entry! This was much more manageable. I didn't really find any kimchi on the Mac, but I think the red drizzle over it is like a kimchi sauce? It still tastes great and was so unique! And you really can't go wrong with breadcrumbs. #macandcheese #pasta #kimchi #breadcrumbs #macaroni #korean #fusion #greenonions #tcveganchef #veganchefchallenge #almond #vegancheese #spicy

This fusion ramen was Tori's 2023 Vegan Chef Challenge offering back in August. When we came to try it out, they had completely sold out because a video about it went viral. They ended up winning the challenge with this dish! I was pleasantly surprised to see it back on the menu! This is a very spicy ramen with pumpkin, cilantro, corn, toasted pepitas, radishes, and an herb emulsion. The broth is so flavorful. I've only had birria tacos once, but I do remember that deep savory flavor of the consomé. The broth definitely is reminiscent of that. The spiciness was just a bit overwhelming for me unfortunately. The flavor was so good, but the spice was preventing me from finishing. As the server was filling our water for the third time, he mentioned that it was the second spiciest ramen on the menu. @jonok believes the Com Saw Mi Da we got last time could be the spiciest the server alluded to. The pumpkin was such a unique ingredient and was my favorite part of this dish. The creaminess of it helped give me some reprieve from the heat. I only wish there was more of that delicious pumpkin. #ramen #birria #tacos #noodles #soup #japanese #korean #corn #cilantro #pepitas #pumpkin #spicy #radish #veganchefchallenge #tcveganchef

The last book I read for 2023 was Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner. So much of the book was describing Korean food. It definitely makes me want to explore my Korean Vegan cookbook more. At the end of the memoir, she takes the time to make her own kimchi. It has been a while since I've had kimchi, so seeing it listed as a starter at Tori, I just had to get it. A generous bowl of kimchi was a nice way to start our meal. This tangy and spicy fermented cabbage really zapped my taste buds awake! It seems like this is made in-house. I love how fresh this tastes and you can almost feel it doing good things for your stomach as you eat it. It's great to find vegan kimchi in a non-vegan restaurant! #kimchi #spicy #tangy #korean #appetizer #snack #cabbage #fermented #probiotics #guthealth #greenonions

This ramen is a combination of their Bali and Shoyu broths. From what I can tell, that means its base has soy, tahini, and chili oil. It also has house chili crisp, gochujang, and seasonal vegetables. This is a very hot ramen! I tasted it a few times, but I would not be able to handle a whole bowl. The tahini was a really interesting addition to the broth. It added a creamy nuttiness that might help counteract some of the heat. This ramen also had some fun mushrooms that I couldn't identify, but appreciated. I'm looking forward to dining at Tori again. It is a really cool space! Half of the restaurant is made out of an old train car. It's decorated beautifully with plants and antique lighting fixtures. It honestly reminds me a bit of a Miyazaki film! It would be so magical in the winter. ❄️🍜 #ramen #mushroom #mushroomlover #spicy #corn #tahini #noodles #bamboo #japanese

@jonok and I headed over to Tori to try their Vegan Chef Challenge entry, Birria Ramen!! Unfortunately for us, a tiktok about it went viral a few days before we came and they ran out! It's great that a small ramen shop and it's creative vegan dish got a lot of attention though. Tori still had many dishes that could be made vegan, so we were able to just pick something else. This Korean ramen has kimchi, togarashi, seasonal vegetables, black garlic oil, green onion, and sesame. I also noticed some maitake mushrooms! I'm not sure if they do that to replace the non-vegan ingredients like chicken and egg, or if the chef just had it on hand that day and added it in with the "seasonal vegetables". The broth had a really deep savory flavor. I haven't had a ramen broth like it. I enjoyed the char on the vegetables, notably the corn and bok choy. I also really loved the texture of the thick noodles. #veganramen #ramen #noodles #korean #japanese #mushroom #mushroomlover #corn #bokchoy #kimchi #bamboo

This starter was so fresh and beautiful! It's a great summer dish, so get it while you can! Tori uses fresh, seasonal ingredients so a salad with zucchini and corn in August fits right into that. The zucchini is cut into very thin noodle-like threads and is on a layer of delicious creamy vegan sauce. I'm not sure what it exactly was, but it tasted great! The corn was roasted and added nice little pops of flavor. I really enjoyed the crispy onion on top. Tori is very much a chef-driven restaurant and this dish demonstrates that! This was $11. #zucchini #corn #salad #appetizer #fresh #seasonal #eatyourveggies #eatyourgreens
