When it comes to Midtown Ramen, 

many would say Totto Ramen is the to go place! 

As expected of the famous Totto Ramen in NY, 

long queues and long waiting time, 

the wait was somewhat worth it

not the best ramen I ate in my life but it was definitely one of the best Japanese ramens I ate in America. 

Now I just hope 2019 would come sooner

so I can visit Japan and taste the authentic Japanese Ramen! 

跟朋友們一起來紐約有名的鳥人拉麵吃飯

我來了兩次

第一次是抓準了營業時間五點半下午

我們提前五點就來了

只等了一下子就順利入座吃面

第一次吃的時候覺得是來到美國吃到最好的吃拉麵了

湯頭好吃 但是肉很普通

但第二次來吃的時候卻覺得普普通通

有種啊為了打卡才來吃的感受

第二次跟朋友晚上8點才來的

等了約45分鐘輪到我們

故事告訴我們 網紅店還是早點去比較好

位子不多 大概20個左右吧

不建議成群去 

結伴2-4人就OK了

Your small town blues, they're melting away

Don't make a brand new start of it, in Old New York

You always make it there, you make it anywhere

Its up to you, New York, New York

New York, New York

I want to wake up in a city, that doesn't sleeps

And find king of the hill one top of the list 

A number one

I keep walking forward, never looking back 

Because if I ever stop even for a while, seems like thoughts about you will come again 

But it's no use since I miss you so much 

Memories about you never fade even once 

After the long winter, spring will always come

Melting again my once frozen heart

As I look to the night sky, thoughts about you will always come too,

Tonight as I can't sleep again, I wonder if you know?

Hop on the 90 years old roller coaster
as it offers a glimpse into the past

Wonder wheel makes me wonder as I wander
My dreams of growing up into a wonder
slowly withers

I have come to realize how adulting took away all my ambitious thoughts
and I must say that
The youngest me is the bravest me

So,
little child, don't be afraid to dream because

you are at the most fearless stage of your life

Spread your wings and fly high.

If,
Sunsets are proof that endings can be beautiful too

Then,

Heartbreaks are proof that love can be painful too 

We use promises to fall in love 
but we compromise to stay in love

Promises that failed to be fulfilled 
turned into shackles 
and
we slowly became prisoners of love 
who were trapped in the past

Cheers to a place that has witnessed my growth
As I have turned into a better me than I used to be

The fountain in front of the Nebraska Union
that many had soaked their feet
along with conversations that brought laughter and tears

Huskers would hold a cup of coffee under the trees
writing their uncompleted assignments
and there is me
lying in the hammock
enjoying the exceptionally nice weather in Nebraska today

There is an old saying in Nebraska that
if you don't like the weather, just wait a while.

It can be snowing on a random day in April and
kids can be outside with their tees and shorts playing football on the next day

Football season attracts the sea of red
cheering Go Big Red
The Memorial Stadium still holds an ongoing record
of consecutive sellouts and
on every game day
the stadium becomes the third largest city in the State of Nebraska

As a wise friend once said
The color of Nebraska is red
and the color of your blood is red
Therefore,
Nebraska will always run through your veins.

There is truly
No Place like Nebraska.
