Ramen used to have a horrible reputation. When I was in college the only option for ramen was those flavorless packets that you’d purchase at the dollar store. You’d talk, or kvetch about how many times a week you had to eat ramen because you didn’t have much money. Unbeknown to us, in Asia, ramen was a flavor-packed dish that could comprise an excellent meal that would leave people wanting more and create the word-of-mouth that restaurants strive for. Ramen For Everyone is an illustrated book that operates in today’s world of ramen. It works as well as a read-to-me or read-aloud book, as it does a story about persistence and doing your best. The book also receives some dad points for showing a healthy, normal relationship between a youth and his dad.
