La-Men

Support your local small business, come get a ramen fix here if you're in the area. Yes you can ask for the veggie version of dishes but I'm suspect of how veggie the soups are as it's a tiny place with one guy in the back and I found a slice of pork in my soup. I didn't taste any over powering animal stock but it was a bit too salty and oily (which also makes me question the stock as veggie bases aren't usually so oily) I didn't make a fuss and just gave the pork bit to my lunch date but better veggie ramens can be found elsewhere. There could be more veggies and perhaps tofu in it, this had very little as the usual topping is the pork and the veggies are the garnishes that go with it. My soup was pretty much ramen with sprinkles of the toppings and that's it. We left still hungry but it was nice to have a hot affordable ramen meal regardless. Not impressed but I have a soft spot for tiny local joints and hope they do better. Two and a half stars.

Calling all vegans!! The shio ramen is vegan!! Just say no egg or meat and get either wheat or spinach noodles. :)

Never thought I'd be able to eat ramen again after going vegan and calling ramen restaurant after ramen restaurant without any luck... Until I called La-Men and learned that their shio ramen is vegan! Yessss!!

Here's how it works here: (1) order your choice of ramen soup (2) choose choice of noodles (wheat, egg, spinach) (3) choose level of spiciness(goes up to 10) (4) slurp down your ramen!

This is now my go to ramen place! :)
