Ramenya, Los Angeles, CA

Day 1 LA

I am still amazed that I sticked it out to drive 6 hours right after I landed in SFO.  Must be crazy. 

I did research ramen places before we all went out to eat.  I have to give shout out to GoRaman in giving me some insight on the ramen places in west LA.  After Keizo left for Japan in 2008, lot of new places actually opened up.  

We have decided to come to Ramenya since it is already later in the day.  First thing I noticed is that this place only accepts benjamins, which alerted me with only Hong Kong dollars in my wallet. lol.  I have ordered shoyu ramen with extra spanish and boiled egg.    


Lot of reflection as you can see from the flash I enabled.  The soup is very filtered out and smooth after sipping in.  It is not in the heavy category but it certainly has the original just right not too salty or sweet.  The best part of this bowl is the chashu actually. 


The fat and the meet is just right balanced and very crummy and full of taste.  The meat does not need any hard bite and it would fall apart.

This place actually reminded me of Tempopo in Jtown SF, run by older Japanese folks.  I would like to say that it is like a food court style (食堂) in Japan, where all kind of ramen soup is served.  Would definitely recommend if you would like to try a lighter style of ramen for a change.

Thanks you guys for hanging!
