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.
“Honestly, I think that good ramen is really easy to find in this town (Totto, Ippudo, Ichiran, Karakatta, Mr. Taka, Nakamura, TabeTomo, Jun-Men, Momosan, EAK, Ivan, etc.), so much so that none of them really stands head and shoulders above the rest.”
