It's Ramen Monday! Last week was the celebration of Shin Sen Gumi's 3rd Anniversary of their Little Tokyo location and had their Hakata Ramen for $3 a bowl!!! (9/8 to 9/11) I usually don't go to Shin-Sen-Gumi's promotions because a lot of people show up. But this was a bit different, I was in the area AND could have a late lunch / early dinner today. Met up with a couple of friends and didn't have to wait long (about 20 mins at 2 pm) We didn't get a table, but did sit at the counter overlooking the kitchen. Not really a line to get in this afternoon, but at least they were prepared (1:50 pm Tuesday) See What Jay Eats... Hakata Ramen $3 a bowl AND they offered Extra Noodle too.

Love the green onions and red ginger, I always ask for extra beni shoga (ginger). If you've never been to Shin-Sen-Gumi, they only serve one style of ramen, Hakata style. It's a tonkotsu broth which is a pork based broth and served with thin noodles. The thin noodles are my favorite.
