The pun in the name of this ramen spot isn’t exaggeration. The goal of this ramen shop is to be open 24 hours a day! Not only is this place serving up almost continuous ramen, it’s also America’s first 2D noodle bar. Pictures don’t do this resto justice, it is absolutely stunning. This menu has tons of tasty options for all sorts of ramen lovers.
We’re obsessed with the crispy pig bowl made of beef broth, ramen noods, crispy pork belly, boy choy, mushrooms, fried onions, and fried garlic and then we add in some of their delicious 24 sauce and scallions! Plus if you’re a fan of krab rangoons don’t skip them and of course we’re pairing our meal with a classic thai tea!
