💡 Go early or join the waitlist—this location fills up fast during dinner rush. Order a classic bowl and add their house-made chili oil at the table for a perfect kick. And if you’re hungry, the Chicken Nanban Bun and crispy gyoza are low-key must-orders.

    Susuru just might be the best ramen in LiC, the shop is so unassuming. They specialize in chicken paitan, the broth was great and the pickled red ginger is an amazing garnish!
