Who knew Ramen was this popular in Los Angeles?� In 2013, there was the First Ramen Show was in Torrance.� There was over 30,000 people that showed up for the two days.� There were so many people lined up at the entrance, people were waiting 2 to 4 hours just to get in.� After people got into the venue, they had to wait in additional lines to get their ramen.� This year we see a larger venue to handle parking and the huge amount of people that love ramen.� We heard a lot of the complaints and we are hopeful the organizers have learned and fixed last years issues.

Last year the Ramen was spectauclar, to be able to taste ramen from many different parts of the country and world.� We expect it to be just as spectacular this time around.

This 2014 Ramen Chefs line-up looks just as impressive as last years chefs.�
