I love the Rameniac site. he has an awesome blog talking about Ramen...my favourite type of Japanese food...childhood comfort food all rolled in one. yes, i know it's blasphemy, but a hot bowl of Ramen at a hole in the wall somewhere in japan on a cold winter night beats any schmancy fancy sushi / sashimi anyday for me...

Not sure about a ramen road trip movie, though that'd be great! There's the classic Tampopo http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092048/, thought I highly recommend not watching it when you're hungry!

Isn't there a Japanese movie about finding the perfect ramen roadtrip? lol That would be totally fun! I've only had ramen a few places in Japan as well. I definitely to try more! (^-^*) It all sounds so yummy!

Ah, but LaLaLaurie06, I'm guessing you probably only had *instant* ramen in college. If you liked it then, you owe it to yourself to find a good "real" ramen house...it's like the difference between a good steak vs salisbury...err..."steak"!
