\"Hinata<\/a><\/p>\n

After the “Life of Cats” exhibit<\/a> at the Japan Society, we were starting to get pretty hungry and decided to continue the Japanese theme of the evening. Ramen it is!<\/p>\n

We stopped by Totto Ramen, but there was huge crowd of people outside… not a good sign. Hide Chan Ramen<\/a>, which is right next door, had a 15-20 minute wait. We walked over to Hinata Ramen <\/a>to see if that would be any better, and as it turns out, they had many open tables!<\/p>\n

\"Hinata<\/a><\/p>\n

I visited Hinata earlier this year<\/a> during lunchtime. It was packed at lunchtime, and I was surprised to them so empty during prime dinner hours on a Friday evening. John got the Orion beer ($11), which was a good deal given the large bottle size. I ordered the plum wine ($6).<\/p>\n

\"Shishito<\/a><\/p>\n

John ordered the shishito peppers ($4.50) and 10-pieces of vegetable gyoza ($11). I had tried the veggie gyoza on my previous visit, and this time, it looks like they held together much better.<\/p>\n

\"Vegetable<\/a><\/p>\n

I, of course, had to get ramen! Vegan Yasai Ramen ($14.50) with vegan noodles, grilled corn, nori, kikurage mushrooms, greens, scallions, and agedashi tofu. Just as delicious as I had remembered. Those vegan noodles are seriously spectacular. Bouncy, wavy goodness!<\/p>\n
