It’s official: We’re well into the rainy season and, more importantly, ramen weather. Now that the temperature feels a little cooler, it’s the perfect time to curl up with a nice, steaming bowl of soup.
If you need extra comfort on rainy days, there are restaurants that make sure you get your ramen fix in two ways.
