"Kotoya is the most underrated Westside ramen spot and the only place I’d gladly let charge me $2 for green onions and $2.50 for nori sheets. Every penny is worth it to support this tiny Palms noodle counter, whose nuanced take on tonkotsu manages to be rich, flavorful, and fatty without being absolutely overwhelming. In the Before Times, piling on table-side spicy pepper and oil was essential. Now, just ask for some on the side when you place an order." - kelly yeo
