I love good ramen with a flavorful soup base. The best one i've ever had was at a small Japanese place on St. Mark between 3rd and 2nd, which is now "closed to renovation" -- that usally means the place was shut down by health inspectors. Hmmm....maybe it was the roaches in the soup pot that gave it so much flavor.
Went to Momofuku a month ago and tried the special house ramen. I thought the soup base was underflavored and the condiment (fat belly cut of pork) overpowered the dish.
