The finished ramen was delicious, and I’d love to keep using this recipe to make it again in the future 😊”

“It’s a lot of ramen, so come hungry! We had such a fun tour with Manny. He educated us on the types of ramen and where they came from. The three stops had very different types of ramen and since I am someone who never knows which ramen to order, this tour was perfect. We were able to taste many different kinds and the tour came with two drinks (alcoholic or non-alcoholic), so that was a bonus. Manny was entertaining and the tour was well worth it!”
