Where's Your Next Bowl of Ramen Coming From? There's a Map for That!

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

The L.A. Weekly's Squid Ink blog says we're in the midst of a "ramen renaissance" around here, and what renaissance couldn't use a little modern day navigation assistance?

They've published a Ramen Map of Los Angeles to help guide your next noodle-soup-protein-veg-sodium excursion. Their "definitive" map is "marked with every ramen restaurant in town, including notes from L.A. Weekly writers to let you know which restaurant will best satisfy your ramen craving no matter where you are."

They've also included spots they haven't visited yet, which means it's up to you to do your own noodling.

Spoons up to you, Squid Ink! We salute your recognition of our need to slurp!

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.
