ramen rating: gardena ramen
I??ve been intrigued by Gardena Ramen ever since I read rameniac??s promise of ???the finest shoyu ramen in L.A.??? Since I tend to favor the classic shoyu ramen over any other new-fangled choices, I couldn??t wait to try it. When I finally had some time to head up to Torrance yes, it??s Gardena Ramen, but in Torrance, I was as giddy as a school girl on a first date Ok, maybe more like a school boy, but school boys don??t get giddy??do they?. The non-descript strip mall that held the path to ramen

Gardena Ramen - Torrance, CA
1840 W. 182nd St. Torrance, CA 90504 310 324-6993 Gardena Ramen in Torrance? I’m not sure what the story is there but Gardena Ramen does sound better than Torrance Ramen. Intrigued by rameniac’s heavy claim that "Gardena Ramen serves the best ramen in Southern California", I definitely had to check it out! Located on the corner of 182nd and Western, Gardena Ramen is a quaint little ramen-ya with a clear emphasis on simplicity. The menu consists of just a few items written on plain white paper

NOOOOOOOOoooooooo!
Last weekend was the Hokkaido Fair at Mitsuwa says Rameniac. I always miss it, and twice I have missed Sumire, one of the most famous miso ramen-yas in Japan. I haven’t been watching Japanese TV so I miss the Mitsuwa commercials. I do not think there are enough tears in my body to cry out my pain. How much longer must I live without my miso butter corn ramen?!

Ramen Setagaya: Oishii desu!
Filed under: East Coast, Restaurants, Far East, Pork, Raves & Reviews Last week I wrote about Rameniac, a guide to all things ramen so detailed and descriptive that it left me jonesing for a hot bowl of the stuff. As promised, I did indeed trek from my native Queens to Manhattan’s East Village that same afternoon to satisfy my urge. Rather than head to one of the neighborhood’s longstanding ramenyas, I decided to try out Ramen Setagaya, a new spot that opened in mid-June amid much fanfare

Rameniac
As a child, the Rameniac was "fairly deprived of good food." Now, this noodle-slurping enthusiast is making up for lost time: "If ramen is food for the starving college student, then I’m a career gastronomy major and the backwaters of Japan are my alma mater." But ramen’s brothy delights aren’t limited to the Land of the Rising Sun, and our blogger-eater emeritus is dedicated to noodle shops worldwide. Begin with the ramenologist’s field guide to the 22 types of noodle styles, and then branch in

Ramen and the Rameniacs
I love Asian food. Part of that is probably nostalia I had a great trip to South Korea one year and part of it is because much Japanese and Chinese culture and cuisine has permeated the city that I live in. One of the Japanese foods I like best in autumn is ramen. It??s quick to make, feeds the masses and keeps me warm when I??m writing. I might, maybe, possibly consider myself a minor ramen fan, but not a rameniac.? I??m a hobbyist rather than a serious devotee. I know this because minor rame

Gonpachi, Beverly Hills - Soba & Anime Food in A Lavish Place
What would you do with 18 million dollars? Would you retire and travel the world? Would you help out a village in an underdeveloped country? Would you buy a ticket on Virgin Galactic? No, these are all a waste of time and money. Instead, let’s build a Japanese mega-restaurant over the old Ed Debevic’s Diner and name it Gonpachi. That’s exactly how much it cost to build Global Dining’s third location in Beverly Hills. According to articles, it’s a true import, meaning they shipped out the sam

Go Rameniac!
Go Rameniac! As I explained to students when I spoke at Patric Kuh’s foodwriting class at UCLA, many of the best personal blogs are the most focused. I gave The Great Taco Hunt and Rameniac’s blog as examples of blogs that concentrate on one thing and do it really well. Well, Rameniac got a huge feature in today’s L.A.
