The sloppy, wet slurp of a good noodle is one of the more satisfying feelings when eating food. Other satisfying "food feels" includes biting into a perfectly crisp chicken wing dipped in your favorite sauce, or the mouthfeel of a hot, warm, and gooey freshly baked chocolate chip cookie. Some mouth feels stay with you, and just thinking about them makes you salivate. Just looking at a noodle pull picture can evoke that feeling. When you pull a mouthful of noodles into your mouth, sauces or broths flying all over your face, that is a forever food sensory memory that will stay with you.

When I’m having a noodle craving, you’ll find me rotating throughout the list below. Not mentioned are Pho Hao and Anh Hong which are probably the top two places I grab quick dinner ramen (alas I had no pics) but there are quite a few spots like Soupa Saiyan that I still need to try.

For what it’s worth, here are, in my opinion some places to get solid noodles.
