Ramen, Reimagined.
Ramen is the ultimate comfort food, and it's best when enjoyed hot, fresh, and in good company. Crafty at Home is our way of bringing the experience of ramen into your home. Perfect for noodle enthusiasts, busy professionals, a fun date-night in or quality time in the kitchen with the family, our frozen ramen meals are ready in minutes and feature high-quality, real ingredients.
Japanese Inspired.
Our founders Miki and Jared met in Vancouver Canada after Miki had moved from Japan to learn English. Together, they moved to Japan, and spent many years living and cooking in different cities. After attending the Yamato School of Ramen together, they toured the country in search of the best ramen shops. They returned to Canada, and opened the first Crafty Ramen in Guelph Ontario in 2017.
The two pillars of Japanese ramen are regionality and innovation. We take inspiration from the principles of Japanese ramen and use them to try and answer the question: what does ramen look like in North America?
We believe the only true rules of ramen are to constantly bend the rules.
Real Ingredients.
We pride ourselves on using real, high-quality ingredients in all of our recipes and carefully select and partner with trusted producers to ensure that every dish is crafted from the freshest meats, vegetables, and plant-based proteins. Our noodles are crafted with the highest quality Canadian wheat. Our dedication to using real ingredients means that you can taste the difference in every slurp.
We serve a number of different styles of ramen, and are proud that our menu contains a high proportion of vegan/vegetarian, and pork-free bowls and snacks.
Handcrafted.
Wherever possible, we make our menu items from scratch. This includes all three of our broths (Rich, Chicken, and Vegetable), all of our tares and oils, and our noodles.
We make our noodles daily - our dedicated Noodle Maker spends each morning operating our noodle machine we imported straight from Japan. Many of our offerings are based on Miki’s family recipes, including our Gyoza which are folded in our shops everyday.
