in:Being a part of this sub since it’s inception makes me laugh how literally every food report has the exact same spots on them.

replying to u/sawman160: I’ve found nakamura slightly inconsistent. Sometimes I swear it’s the best I’ve be ever had, other times definitely lacking. Ivan Ramen slaps big time. Blows the other LES spots out the water, of which many are good. RKO is the hidden gem up there in the 140s and Jin ramen in the uws is a sleeper too
“Jin Ramen is okay (been many times since it’s convenient for friends) but I legit hate their noodles lol”

replying to u/Glower_power: Take the crosstown bus to the UWS and go to Han Dynasty on w85th! Or Saravana Bhavan on w80th--south Indian food, easily dairy free. The answer is definitely to take the crosstown bus, though, and go to the UWS
“there are several restaurants that fit the bill bracketed between them on the west side: Han Dynasty, Flor de Mayo, Jin Ramen, Land and Senn Thai, Wau, Joe Steam Rice Roll, Jing Fong, Saravana Bhavan, etc.”
