During the cold winter, a steamy bowl of ramen noodles is sure to warm up your core. Though it is named Sushi Lounge, the restaurant in Alphabet City has a wide variety of ramen noodles, which were recently revamped to please health conscious New Yorkers' taste buds without making a dent in their wallets.
After repeated trial and error, the owner developed lighter and healthier soup made with chicken stock and specially crafted noodles. A whole chicken, simmered for hours, makes the soup rich and full-bodied. Diligent research resulted in straight, medium thick noodles that are fine-grained and moist, making them the perfect vehicle for delivering the flavorful soup to your mouth.
As other noodle shops in the city often charge $10 or more for ramen noodles, Sushi Lounge price their most popular Lounge Ramen at $6.95. An even better deal, offered all day is Lounge Ramen and a Kirin draft for $9.50.
Sushi Lounge can easily accommodate a party of 20 or more and offers half price sushi with a minimum order of $16. Its sister restaurant, Noodle Café Zen, also serves the Lounge Ramen, under the name Zen Ramen, as well as offers the same discount deals.
