Urbanbelly

You’d think a dish called the “Urbanbelly Ramen” would be this noodle bar’s stand-out item. But as satisfying as that bowl of clove-kissed broth and pork belly is, the best dish here is the rice cakes. The chewy, mini-Frisbees are topped with a juicy, perfectly fried chicken breast and bits of mango, which help cool the fiery, chile-spiked broth. Like the rich lamb-and-brandy dumplings, it’s the kind of dish you’ll want to take your time with. But the crowds vying for your seat dictate that you eat your food fast and jet, so savor the food quickly or get it to go.
