I love Tonkotsu, but I've actually mostly had vegan ramen because my past two girlfriends were vegan. There's a place in Grand Central Mkt here in LA that even makes their own vegan softboiled eggs! Personally I prefer Tonkotsu, but that's definitely worth checking out! Also Reina Scully as host is my favorite ramen style.
Ugh I'm upset that the next episode is the last, for a while at least. I genuinely just enjoy seeing you speak about food and learning all these things about Japanese cuisine/history
There's lots of channels that show Japanese Cuisine, including mine. I can also recommend Ramen Adventures and Aden Films, although Aden does not talk, just show.

The restaurant business is hard in general. The one year survival rate isn't great. However if you have the customers and you go under, you're doing something wrong somewhere.
Generally, the survival rate is so low because so many people who want to start a business start a restaurant. And just jump into it. Regardless of if their community wants their kind of food or atmosphere, whether or not they have good managerial skills, good finance skills or (and here's the big one) the capital or credit to eat being in the red for 4-6 months until they earn back all the money they spent on equipment/leasing/advertising. Most well managed restaurants last several years before going under even if there's not a strong demand for their style.
Tonkotsu for when you want rich soup, Shoyu for when you want a lighter soup you can eat multiple times in a row and Tantanmen when you want a dandan noodle style mix up from the usual.
Dude, First We Feast... I beg of you run this show forever. This show is soup for the American Weeb's soul, and Reina is a fantastic host and she runs a solid interview. 15 out of 10, will slurp again.
I am loving this series so much! Learning a lot about different foods and building a mad appetite for all the things I've seen so far! Thank you so much for doing this!!!
Shoyu is my favorite. There are two other classic styles: shio and miso ramen (salt and fermented soy beam). Shio is the most difficult as it’s hard to hide behind a strong broth.
Xvyolt Right?! So far this is my favorite First we feast show and it’s the best! But less than ten and that’s it?! Sean, we need more Gochi Gang stat! It’s the highlight of my Tuesday mornings.
Unfortunately, it's difficult to do business in states that have terrible economic policies. New York, unfortunately, ranks dead last on business freedom. There are alot of stores that closed down that I've loved and even saw on TH-cam that was profiled that are now closed.
I really hope this comes back! So many times I've either made or sought out what I've seen here. Reina is great, the transitions and audio are always on-point!
The Gochi Gang videos are literally must watch. The writing, commentary, editing, and host are all fantastic. I'm a foodie, but this format and information level would be interesting to watch even if they discussing the history and new technology in spiral notebooks or shoe laces. It amazes me when I see such high level shows on TH-cam then I see garbage on TV. How do y'all do this for free? I would gladly pay for cable again for a First We Feast channel if you ever leave TH-cam.
That’s awesome the first Ramen I ever ate was The classic Ramen in the Styrofoam cup In the hood when we couldn’t afford anything else to eat. Of course I’ve learned how to make some good noodles nowadays
I absolutely love Tonkotsu Ramen. I absolutely love the richness of it. So many layers, complex, like art in a bowl the richness of it. I literally want to plan a trip to Japan and took a tour of the most famous Tonkotsu Ramen houses.
Tampopo is still one of the most unique movie-watching experiences I've ever had. And definitely leaves you craving Ramen immediately right after. Such a fantastic film.
I saw _Tampopo_ when it came out in 1985. I was still at university at 21 years old. Great movie. Now many years later I’m trying to make my own ramen.
Really hope we get another season of Gochi Gang! It would be cool to see how Japanese food has flourished in places other than New York, or maybe even how western food has had an influence in Japan!
At about 12:20 he talked about the next step in Ramen in the USA being about regional varieties, and it made me think about our chefs at the Arkansas Heart Hospital in Little Rock. The broth and noodles are the same, but the veggies and extras change every time based on what is growing in their own garden ❤
I hate this so much. You don't have to slurp your ramen. It's not a requirement. It's a weird made up thing that Americans think. It's not considered rude but it's not mandatory like Americans seem to think....
One of the best series you guys have produced on FWF! Reina really killed it here and hope to see more from her :3 Hope you guys can make a similar series with other cuisines like Korean or Filipino
Good luck Chef! Prayers and great vibes sent your way for a successful journey. Never stop. To feed people great food, is to spread care and love. God bless
Cool summary but forgot to mention Fukuoka chains Ippudo and Ichiran who made the pork-bone broth + straight noodles and arguably popularization of ramen around the world. Check out the ramen festivals in Fukuoka for the different regional styles. For an in-depth summary of ramen and some of its HOF level dishes from 9 regions of Japan each with different variations, check out the ramen museum at Shin-Yokohama. Last time I was there, I ate about 6 bowls before tapping out. Tip: the basement shops offer half-bowls so you can try as many as you can handle.

... Ivan's ramen is horrible, rai rai ken is not popular at all because it's mediocre. Everybody has their preference so you might like it but I'm telling you only whack ramen places are showing up in these videos because they need the publicity since their shop is dying.
Tonkotsu for me, but what I enjoy most is the creativity. My favorite place does a spicy red and rich black garlic with this dense, pure beef meatball coated in the sauce used has the base for the broth in each respective bowl.
in parts of Asia, yeah, but in the west it's considered pretty rude and obnoxious lol I guess when a staple of your nations diet is noodles, and you use chopsticks to eat, you have to make up a nice excuse for the innevitable slurping.
@@dat_boii yeah, lol, I get it. But a lot of people dropped in on the vid commenting on it. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Also also, a perspective bomb, onomatopoeias differs too. Take the sound we use for the cat; "Meow". Ask a Japanese person to make it. It's completely different from ours. Hehehe
@@sirvvkamikazivv check out a video called "What It Takes to Make 400 Bowls of Ramen From Scratch • Tasty " It features this same guy. It's a really inspiring video
While I understand the custom, and I whole heartily respect it, I really DISLIKE the slurping aspect of the dishes. I think that's because I value my peace and quiet too much. Lol. Okay. I'm being a brat.
I’m not good enough to start a restaurant, but I’m really inspired by chef Shimamoto’s encouragement to use local ingredients to make ramen in the US (at 12:17)
Nama Japan The restaurant that’s closing is in the US. It’s harder to find restaurants that make good ramen here. It’s also expensive to fly to Japan just for ramen.
00:57 Why #RamenShack get close for good? Did they move somewhere else or quit for good? 😢 That's too bad. Because after I watched the video. I'm amazed by how passionate and dedicated Chef Shimamoto served his ramen. It looks and taste delicious. And the way he served it with delicate, clean and tidy manners, I could say how much he loves so much his passion for Ramen. Especially when he fluently explained the History of Ramen, not just cook it only. Wow! 👏 I hope you still keep living your passion serve everyone every bits of your love for Ramen. 🍜 💐😊💕
Maybe he figured that he is successful enough to survive without the hassle and stress of managing a restaurant in NYC or maybe the rent in his shop went up and he is taking a break.. maybe he is writing a book? there are so many reasons why a professional would step away.
What's your favorite ramen style?
Never met a ramen I didn't like, but give me a shoyu ramen.
Tonkotsu is amazing. I would love to try Toyama Black Ramen though. Heard great things about that region's ramen soup.
I love Tonkotsu, but I've actually mostly had vegan ramen because my past two girlfriends were vegan. There's a place in Grand Central Mkt here in LA that even makes their own vegan softboiled eggs! Personally I prefer Tonkotsu, but that's definitely worth checking out!
Also Reina Scully as host is my favorite ramen style.
Nissin Ramen Noodle Instant Noodles Chicken Flavor 😂
Yo, real talk: Ivan Ramen was one of the worst bowls of ramen I’ve ever had!
You're killing it Reina, it's like you've been presenting this show for years.
I wish I could have her on for an episode on my channel as well sometime!
Ugh I'm upset that the next episode is the last, for a while at least. I genuinely just enjoy seeing you speak about food and learning all these things about Japanese cuisine/history
There's lots of channels that show Japanese Cuisine, including mine. I can also recommend Ramen Adventures and Aden Films, although Aden does not talk, just show.
Nama Japan appreciate the recommendations! I’ll check u out 😊
Also reccomend Simon and Martina although they talk about more than just food
They should shoot at home spots for the channel
Its because of corona
This shows deserves more seasons, Reina is a great hoster
100% agree! She is really good with the interviews and so knowledgeable. Plus she gets really excited and passionate about the food.
Not at all them together sounds like a cartoon. They are too a like.
If I could eat ramen everyday for every meal, I would.
Trust me you'd get bored after a week or less
Whats stopping you? You can eat ramen for breakfast lunch and dinner and spend less than $3 a day. You just have to eat cheap ass maruchan ramen
Yeah I'd probably eat spicy ramen everyday
Yo can I join
@@autismo8123 Ate ramen every day for lunch for 4 months straight. Only reason I couldn't keep going is I had to leave the Philippines.
Just want to acknowledge that the transitions and music for this series is solid

I strongly disagree with the music. It's distracting, and feels like a cheesy, generic TV show.
Agreed, the production of First We Feast in general is on point.
I am so sick right now and just watching this is so soothing.
Watch Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories on Netflix if you want something soothing that is food related :)
Sick, bro
Me too. This cold is miserable, and these ramen look so damned good.
Same, but now I'm really hungry
Right? I love how relaxing it is. No drama just people educating us and enjoying good food.
The Asian dude is super knowledgeable and low key corrected some things throughout the vid. Very laid back and professional.
I believe he retired and became a special chef for certain occasions for other restaurants. The business is very hard in the states I do know
I don't see why, my neighborhood ramen shop is PACKED all the time. I feel like we love ramen here. At least in NY

Let me blow your mind: Tonkotsu-shoyu exists and it's the tits. I think I have some examples for that on my channel
Ship I also light and trending at the moment in Japanese.
SO to the art team! The animations are so freakin cute and work great with Reina's energy.
0:55 first time I've seen a feature on a restaurant that was closing.
Well, at least now we know it wasn't for business publicity. 😕
Could be his own decision to focus on his blog
The yelp reviews mentioned it was a “popup” and wasn’t meant to stay open.
@@ninerfan415 makes sense
@@banditligroin i have personally documented restaurants that eventually closed. But this was way before.
It was actually because the land owner kept raising rent prices till it was unmanageable
Came for the Hot Ones... got hooked on this show. Simply love it. Cheers from Canada!

Veerexx looked like he wanted to cry the whole time
Why did the shop close? Did it not workout? I love Ramen.
I hope he reopens somewhere else
He said his shop is coming back but it's opening up in 2020 somewhere else
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
I really appreciate Ivan's mentality on the mood behind a ramen. I wholeheartedly agree. I definitely have my 'eat my feelings' ramen.
You haven't lived if you did not have a depressed ramen that brought you back to life.
@@NamaJapan I wonder what kind of ramen that would be
The joy in his eyes serving his ramen. Hope find fulfillment else where after ramen shack.
Shoyu is my favorite. There are two other classic styles: shio and miso ramen (salt and fermented soy beam). Shio is the most difficult as it’s hard to hide behind a strong broth.
I look forward to this series every week now just as much as I do with Hot Ones
Gochi gang doesn't get enough love. Way better than the feast mansion. Won't miss another episode.

Tampopo is still one of the most unique movie-watching experiences I've ever had. And definitely leaves you craving Ramen immediately right after. Such a fantastic film.
I hope they do a katsu series. or get some Koreans in there and do the Korean fried chicken gambit.
Tonkatsu curry rice is my go to. It's delicious, full of textural variety and oh so hearty.
they kinda touched on it for the fried food episode a bit back
I saw _Tampopo_ when it came out in 1985. I was still at university at 21 years old. Great movie. Now many years later I’m trying to make my own ramen.
