A full-blown Chinese restaurant that serves authentic Japanese ramen? Instinct might tell slurpers to stay away. Yet Seattle has but a handful of ramen shops to its name and Fu Lin rates a visit, according to the locals. How does one jaded rameniac handle slippery 
From the murky waters of Toyama City, Menya Iroha’s Kuroshoyu ramen is on the rise! This little package of nama noodling is an eclipse in a bowl, a black lagoon of… well, you get the point. Black shoyu ramen.

Ringing in the new year at Hakata Shin-Sen-Gumi has become something of a Rameniac tradition. Open until 5am on New Year’s Eve, the foremost purveyor of Hakata-style tonkotsu ramen in Southern California transforms into a rowdy after-hours collective of off-duty employees and Japanese expats. This year was no exception, as a few friends and I made our drunken, post-partying way down to Gardena somewhere in the neighborhood of 2am. By the time we were seated and eating, it was nearly 3 in the morning. Happy 2007 everyone!!!
