The Best Ramen in NYC, Carefully Selected By a Ramen Connoisseur | Condé Nast Traveler
"Ivan Orkin may be the most famous ramen chef in America thanks to his Long Island–to–Tokyo story and Chef’s Table fame, but he’s also serving the city’s most interesting shio: rye-flecked noodles, a sofrito base, and a beautifully roasted tomato topping, with a pronounced dried-fish punch that outshines other shops’ shio. The menu spans styles—mazemen, tsukemen, and an emulsified chicken paitan—and the shellfish-spiked chicken shoyu was recently updated to include wontons." - Sho Spaeth
