Ippudo: This isn’t your L train-riding waif’s kind of ramen—at $13 a bowl, the homemade noodles at this NYC outpost of one of Japan’s top chains are a work of art. Delectably chewy, skinny noodles are seeped in rich miso and pork broth. Toppings include slow-cooked pork, soft-boiled eggs, and thin sheets of nori. A bar serving sake, shochu, and beer opens up to a Zen-tranquil dining room with a bamboo tree sculpture as a centerpiece. Who would ever guess you could impress a date over ramen? |
