mu ramen
Long Island City. Phone Day-of Reservations at 3pm Only. Otherwise, you go and you wait. We put our name down at 5:30pm (when they open) and sat down to eat just before 9pm. At this point, the expectation is - high. We couldn't pass up the - Tebasaki Gyoza, foie gras-stuffed fried chicken, and managed to snag the last 2 available U & I, uni and maguro starters. But really– it was about the ramen. Husband and friends, opted for the Tonkotsu 2.0, while I indulged in the Spicy Miso, which is actually a tonkotsu broth (with slightly thicker noodles). And, it didn't end there…while we're at it, we figure we try the Mu Ramen. So for dessert, the oxtail and bone marrow soup with sour pickle and cabbage. - Verdict? That fatty thick and cloudy, tonkotsu broth, hit the spot, and the spicy miso paste put it right over the top. It's good. 3hrs+ wait, worthy.
