in:Favorite ramen places of the moment?5 pts
“I still like to call out Nakamura for the most ridiculously rich broths, including a phenomenal vegan one. The Pork broth is closer to drinking gravy than it is to ramen, but I enjoy the hell out of it, and the Vegan XO is nearly as rich. The chicken ramen is also really nice.”

replying to u/pookgai: I'm honestly still searching for a good Ramen shop. I try a new place everytime and still havent found a spot that I can solidly recommend. If youre looking for Tsukemen, i can 100% recommend Okiboru in LES. Tsukemen is my favorite style and Okiboru is the only spot that nails the taste and texture. Ive tried tsukemen from many shops in NYC and CA and Okiboru is the closest to my experiences in Japan.
“Their broth is amazing and I felt like I was two steps away from drinking gravy. So far, that's my favorite Manhattan ramen.”

“It's basically drinking pork gravy, which is awesome, but also really different than every other place. It's far and away the richest bowl I've ever had.”

“Nakamura has the most over the top rich pork bone broth (like, it tastes like drinking gravy, it's polarizing). Sides suck. Vegan ramen is awesome.”
