38th Annual RamenFest

If you’re hankering for a bowl of ramen, then make your way to Spokane’s South Perry District for the 38th annual Ramen Fest at the Spokane Buddhist Temple. The traditional ramen has a pork and chicken broth, noodles, veggies, and chicken ($15). There is also a vegetarian broth option available with tofu. If you have room for more, get the inari sushi ($8), which tucks vinegared rice into deep-fried tofu pockets. There are bouncy mochi desserts ($8) to satisfy your sweet tooth, too. Enjoy it all at outdoor tables in the side yard, if weather permits. There’s also an open house, and all proceeds of the meal go to the volunteer-run temple.
