Monterey Park, 91755 - Foo Foo Tei
Decision - I like the ramen in my previous little Tokyo ramen post better but this one is close and for a quick fix it isn't bad.
It in a small corner next to a really good Taiwanese breakfast place....that'll be reviewed very soon :D It is a fun small place to get a quick bite with friends.
I had the Kakiage Ramen which is described as Noodle soup with shrimp and vegi fritter. It was pretty good. My advice is to fish out the fritter and put it aside on the provided plate so you aren't eating moosh later. One bad thing, which is the case I am sure with almost all ramen places, is the soup was loaded with MSG. My lips were tingling.
This is Shin Shin Ramen. The menu says HOT and HOLY BATMAN it is hot. This thing was spicy! The fortunate / unfortunate thing was it wasn't a malicious spicy where you refused to eat anymore....it was a seductive burn where you know your digestive track is going to pay you back later but you still want more. (We call this a sliced cucumber hot.....it is so hot you want to take sliced cooled cucumber into the bathroom with you later. :P)
We got a side of eggplant and croquette. It was OK, their version is not something I would find myself craving.

I finally had a chance to try Monterey Park one. OOPS!! Who said they are much better than Industry one? Did you really try Industry store? No comparison there.
