I realize that I eat more Ramen in the Winter and think thats probably because I unconsciously want to head for something warm as I step outside ^^; How often do you eat noodles/ramen?

Well they say its the only food for college people and I do love my ramen, so I'd say six out of seven days a week.

6 days out of the week?! ...is your blood pressure ok? ^^;; I thought i was bad at once a week ^^;; 'course if i lived near a ramen place i might start eating more... i get tired of the instant stuff sometimes but don't think i'll ever get enough of the ramen from the places i go in japantown ^_^

I eat noodles 4 or 5 times a week, but usually only one of those will be ramen. The rest will be various other Japanese noodle dishes with prawns, chicken, and tofu. Japanese food is great but it's still a little tricky finding some of the ingredients unfortunately without ordering online. Also, what is it with the size of prawns you get with tempura in Japan? Those things are HUGE (and very tasty). In the UK the prawns aren't even 1/4 of the size and nowhere near as nice to eat.

By ramen I assume you mean the non-instant type right? If thats the case then rarely, maybe a couple of times a month. But hey if you include the instant type then well All the damn time!

3 out of 5 times that I go out and eat noodle would be ramen. However there isn't one restaurant that has ramen that I love so much that I try to make an effort to go eat on a weekly bases.

I eat soup in general much more frequently in the colder parts of the year. Anything from ramen to pork tea soup :) Most of my soup eating is done at home but there is one restaurant I go to for the soup. Sweet Tomatoes: http://www.souplantation.com/ should be all about the healthy salads... but for me it is about the soup :)

This looks really delicious... I'm hungry now. To be honest, I don't really have ramen at all, since the ramen here costs a bomb to have. I think I had it once, but that's about it... Unless you count the instant ones... or the coffee shops (local food outlets) as ramen... that's another case.
(ID #414730) Posted on 2008/12/17 03:43
I do have to agree with netto, some places charge way too much for Ramen. Since it's not a stapled food of many countries. There is a Ramen placed in New York, which i ate at when i was in town for a couple of days for the New York anime convention. The placed was called Naruto Ramen which had a lunch specials that included Ramen and Gyoza for $8 dollars. It was delicious, and also i find it better to try restaurants during lunch hours because of their specials.

I've always noticed that, too. Ramen warms me up internally more than anything else, though I don't have the amount of "toppings" that you seem to have in the picture above, in my bowl. Usually just some simple beef mix or karai spices with some little veggie bits.

Sigh. That looks damn good. Wish there were some real ramenyas in CA. There're some decent ones, but none that come close.

If I lived in Japan, I'd eat Ramen as much as I can. The Ramen in America is alright but a lot of it isn't really the real thing.
