Bad Bones Ramen

St John's


Ramen and Newfoundland actually go together like a shot of screech and some cod lips: it's a match made in raw, windblown heaven. Bad Bones has a hip, graffiti/pop-art vibe and bowls of gut-warming noodle soup that ward off the outside chill like a suit of delicious armor. Pass the shoyu-glazed short ribs while you're at it.
