Minca

Ramen restaurant · East Village

@eater

"This relatively unassuming neighborhood ramen joint turns out 15 varieties of the noodle soup, which include pork, chicken, and vegetarian broth styles. Customization is encouraged here — choose from thick, thin, wavy, whole wheat, or even gluten-free bean noodles. Purists should look to the house shio, a half-pork, half-chicken broth seasoned with salt and roast garlic flavor, while adventurous eaters play dealer’s choice with the experimental ramen. Past experiments have included pan-fried ramen and tomato ramen." - Dan Q. Dao
