Tori Ramen
Join CAA at Tori Ramen, a fusion noodle eatery, for a dine-out to enjoy and vote on their entry to the Twin Cities Vegan Chef Challenge! (Reserve your spot here.)
The Challenge
The challenge runs during the month of August. Competing restaurants add or highlight vegan menu items, and diners vote to determine who has the best vegan food in the Twin Cities. See the full list of participating restaurants, and find the voting form, here. Be sure to tag @tcveganchefchallenge in your posts for a chance to enter to win restaurant gift cards!
The Food
We are excited that Tori Ramen is adding a vegan main dish for the challenge: a Vegan Birria Ramen, highlighting seasonal produce with rich birria spice. The dish is available as a dipping-style (tsukemen) ramen, as well as a normal soup ramen.
Other dishes available at the dine-out include Shoyu Ramen (with mushrooms, seaweed, & more), Bali Ramen (with tahini, tofu, chili, & more), Korean Ramen (with kimchi, togarashi, & more)
More Info
Tori Ramen is located just south of downtown Saint Paul, at 603 7th St W, St Paul 55102. Look for the blue “Compassionate Action for Animals” sign to find the dine-out table. Each diner purchases their own food. Reserve your spot on EventBrite to ensure we have an accurate headcount and can all be seated. Come enjoy the food, whether you’re exploring vegan eating options, vegetarian, vegan, or just curious! (Though all food purchased during the dine-out event should be vegan.)
Please note that Tori Ramen’s Saint Paul location is participating in the Challenge, but the Challenge dish is not available at their Minneapolis Tori 44 location.
Tori is a zero-waste-focused restaurant and also offers a midnight diner, 10pm-3am on Friday & Saturday evenings, for the night owls among us!
