Ramen Shop a hot spot in Oakland - SFGate: "Maybe it's that we're so in love with Japanese noodles. Or maybe it's the Chez Panisse connection.

Whatever reason, from the day it opened, Oakland's Ramen Shop has been more crowded than a Tokyo bus at rush hour.

Even by 5:15 p.m. on a recent Wednesday, names were already scrawled on the chalkboard behind the host stand as people waited in the lounge for one of the 45 seats at a table or at the long counter where people can watch the action in the kitchen."
