Ramen in NYC

This was a bowl of tan-tan ramen at my favorite ramen place in the world, Men Kui Tei on 56th and 6th in Manhattan. Grumpy old man makes the gyoza. It goes good with some Sapporo beer. Although I have to say they chintzed me on the amount of pork in the tan-tan ramen. At the Men kui tei downtown, I got a heaping serving of spicy greasy ground pork. Here I just a got a spoonful. Still good stuff. It's sort of lonely eating ramen alone but a lot of people do it. Also I can't read the manga.

MEN KUI TE, NYC
56th St. between 5th and 6th ave.
BEST RAMEN IN AMERICA.

It takes grumpy old Japanese men looking miserable to make the best seaweed pork broth on the new continent.
