I can’t express enough the level of my disappointment with the Japanese Ramen restaurants in NYC. After having spent an entire childhood thinking that Ramen = Oodles of Noodles ..

Located at 437 3rd Avenue (between 30th & 31st St.) in Murray Hill of Manhattan, their sushi and rolls are plump, juicy and always fresh.
