The 20 Best Ramen Spots In Los Angeles - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"This Tokyo-based ramen chain is known for long lines at its San Francisco location, and after one slurp of noodles at their new branch in Culver City, we understand the hype. The luxurious bowls here arrive more dressed up than the cast of Wicked, with broth that's so absurdly rich it could pass as gravy, housemade noodles with resistance-band bounce, and toppings stacked like Jenga blocks (including a perfect jammy egg). Get the signature toripaitan with a trio of meats—wagyu slices, fermented pork, and seared duck—or the Garlic Knock Out that delivers what it promises: five types of garlic, a pool of chili oil, and punchy flavor intense enough to put Nosferatu in a coma." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder, cathy park
