"When you’re fresh from the Beltline trail, Hotto Hotto in Grant Park makes sense as a boozy outdoor ramen hang. The huge patio fills up with others on that same vibe, drinking draft beers and pretty cocktails. Keep to the spirited theme with the massive Sapporo chicken ramen. The noodles are bouncy and light, and the broth is silky and rich. If you’re not feeling soupy, they also serve brothless ramen, with springy noodles tossed in a sweetish, garlicky glaze that does most of the work." - juli horsford, jacinta howard
