I like ramen, the broth, the noodle, the meat. All of it. I actually live really close to one of the best ramen restaurants in the Los Angeles area, Shin sen gumi.
I thought Shin Sen Gumi was as good as it gets, since it’s a chain store from Japan. And my friends that had it from the store in Japan said it tastes just the same. So when a friend of mind told me that Shin Sen Gumi isn’t as good as Ippudo in New York, I got real curious. Curious to see how good this Ippudo really is.
We got there around 6:30pm on a Saturday, and Ippudo was already jam packed. As I was taking this photo, there were people still walking in, and the entire waiting area was shoulder to shoulder. I had to literally squeeze through just to get to the receptionist. Ippudo is definitely popular!
Though the waiting area was crowded, inside the eating area is a totally different scenery. Roomy, full of laughter, and smell of good food.
Prior to us going to Ippudo, I yelped Ippudo and found that ramen and their appetizer pork bun are the two must have items on the menu. They were right, it’s definitely tasty! If you plan on visiting Ippudo in New York, I recommend that you go at odd times, to avoid the crowd !
Enjoy,
