    Their coverage. Pretty much the same, only, you know, in a magazine.

    ...and then after the appetizers, the ramen was served!

    Funny, I agree - but I feel it's a shame that ramen has come to be equated with those freeze-dried instant noodles that students everywhere seems to eat instead of actual food.

    In Japan (where the dish is hugely popular), real ramen is a whole different thing; thick, intense soup base with slices of meat or seafood, greens, boiled eggs, a mound of chopped leek (well, similar to leek), all floating on top of a large serving of freshly cooked ramen noodles slowly soaking up the flavours of the soup. The instant stuff is just a pale shadow of the real thing.
