"Will Ivan Ramen’s Spicy Red Chili Ramen burn a hole in your esophagus? Don’t worry about that now. For the time being, just eat your way through this very hot ramen until tears drip down your face. They do have non-spicy options too, and the lively Lower East Side space is a fun place for a small group dinner. They also do delivery from a shared kitchen in Brooklyn, if you need to eat your Spicy Red Chili Ramen alone at home." - will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah, neha talreja, kenny yang
