"Taking over the former Menya Ultra space in Hillcrest, I found Hokkaido chain Baikoken Ramen built on a stock of pork and chicken bones plus dried fish and seaweed, offering miso, salt, and shoyu ramen bowls with curly noodles and toppings like chashu, soft-boiled eggs, and butter and corn, along with sides including karaage, takoyaki, fried gyoza, and Hokkaido croquettes." - Candice Woo
