Ramen Yokocho Festival – Arcadia, CA | OC Food List

Ramen Yokocho Festival – Arcadia, CA. Ramen Yokocho is the biggest ramen festival in the US and wasw held at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia on March 29th and 30th. It featured over 14 different ramen from Japan, Los Angeles, San Jose, San Diego and Las Vegas. Ramen Yokocho also featured the now famous ramen burger. The festival also featured the Tokyo City Cup celebrating Japan Family Day which had different performances including Japanese guitar, singers, sumo wrestling, lion dance, taiko drums and kendo sword fighting. Now about the food, I wanted to try all the places from Japan of course, no need to eat at places from LA. I tried Mattou Seimen-Tokyo Ramen Show 3 year champion, TATSUNOYA-tonkotsu ramen ranked #1 in Kyushu, Tsujita Tokyo-#1 ramen ranking in Zagat, LA Weekly and LA Times and the ramen burger. The ramen burger was actually not a gimmick and was really pretty good. The ramen patty actually worked and didn’t totally fall apart and the sweet and savory sauce was very tasty. Love, peace and ramen burger grease.
