Los Angeles Ramen Spots

A year ago, I wrote about some ramen joints in LA. From that point to now, there has been a lot of devel­op­ment in Down­town LA, espe­cial­ly in Lit­tle Tokyo. After get­ting back from my “short trip” from South­east Asia (Philippines/Thailand) recent­ly, I head­ed straight to Haka­ta Ramen SSG.

Oyaji


Some sushi, some biru, and some good ramen, orig­i­nal­ly uploaded by stechico.

In the SF area? More specif­i­cal­ly, in the Out­er Rich­mond? Feenin’ for some iza­kaya, good sushi and ramen? This is the place to be for those near the Out­er Rich­mond. Park­ing can be hec­tic but easy as well. I parked at the Legion of Hon­or lot on a Fri­day night (I think that was on 34th and Clement St.).

Daikokuya

Lots of ramen spots in DTLA. So which one to go with? Well, the 3 I like head­ing to when the stom­ach is yearn­ing for some would prob­a­bly be:

  1. Daikokuya
  2. Kouraku
  3. Oro­chon

But I won’t real­ly get into all 3, this post is all about Daikokuya. I’ve always want­ed to go but the long wait just was­n’t some­thing I can do dur­ing the mul­ti­ple attempts in Lit­tle Tokyo.
