Don Too

After our visit to Kokoro Ramen and seeing comments that the best ramen in Melbourne was possibly served at Don Too, it seemed like it would be worth a try. So a lunch with Phil came up, and seeing he'd come up to my end of town last time, I jumped on my bike at lunch time to get across town.

On arrival from the outside the place looked pretty good, nicely set up with wooden tables and chairs, a clean design, and busy!

Looking at the menu I worked out a couple of things, one ramen isn't served at lunch time and two this place is very similar to Don Don even sharing the menu. The cheap prices also stay as does the super fast service, however maybe it's being away from Swanson street, it seemed just slightly more relaxed...

In the end both of us selected the teriyaki chicken don for $7. Again this looked similar the offerings at the other branch, but the sauce seemed to have a little more kick here which was welcome.

On doing some more research later, it seems that the ramen is strictly evenings only, which means I'm less likely to try it. Don Too certainly joins its sibling in offering great value, and probably beats it in terms of atmosphere and fit out. This isn't fine dining, but is well priced fast lunch food.
