Yeah, those Korean ramens are SPICY! I never order food "hot" at Korean, Thai, or Laotion places. They do not mess around with that stuff!
On another note, what do you feel about ramen joints? It's SO popular here, but I can't justify spending $10-12 for a bowl of ramen with ONE measley piece of pork in it, and then add 50 cents for each egg (HALF!), corn, mushrooms, seaweed, etc, when I can make my OWN ramen at home (instant or otherwise) for a fraction of the cost. I don't care if the ramen chef is straight from Japan with ramen medals around his neck, I don't think paying that much for a bowl of carbs is worth it.
Now pho on the other hand. $6 for a big bowl FULL of beef, and most likely the cook is straight from Vietnam.
