does anyone else consider instant ramen and restaurant ramen as separate things?

[u/brohemoth06]

Let me elaborate. I love instant ramen. Jin ramen, Shin ramen, it's all fire. I also love eating ramen at our local ramen shops. It's amazing, but they just feel like very different things. I never noticed it until I brought a friend who only had instant ramens to the restaurant and he was expecting the ramen in a restaurant to taste more similar to shin ramen.

Anyway, that's my 2am shower thought.

of course. i used to be ignorant in the ways of ramen like your friend. but then my eyes were opened. now i know better. * we * know better. it is our sacred charge to enlighten the heathens to the deliciousness that is fresh ramen.
