Concierge.com's insider take:
The drawing card at this popular shop is the spicy, extra-rich noodle broth made from long-simmered pork bones (hey, no one claimed that ramen was health food!). The thin, chewy noodles are relatively plain, the better to soak up flavors from the soup and optional condiments such as spicy bean sprouts and raw garlic cloves that you grate for yourself. Instead of water, you're served pitchers of an African iced tea that supposedly neutralizes the fat from all the pork; we recommend drinking an extra glass or two.
