Kung Fu Pho / Muketi Ramen

If you do ani ramen like a lot of people are mentioning, the montclair location is SO SO much better. I really have enjoyed the ramen in 99 ranch though & it’s a great price

Sadly I do not, I always kept my NJ drivers license. But you can use a foreign drivers license in the States for a bit.

Van Vorst park, but wouldnt mind traveling outside the neighborhood as i feel like for the most part everything is easily accessible

Yeah great question. Moved here in September. Settling in to the Heights, and excited to get out and meet more people as the weather takes a warmer turn. I’ll be on the lookout for softball leagues, but interested in other activities too

I love Ahri’s Kitchen - their ramen is Korean rather than Japanese, but so SO tasty. Favorite kimchi I’ve ever had, too.

Thanks for this. Can you recommend some organizations you're aware of or have participated in? The categories you listed out sound interesting.

I grew up in that area, went to school in Bernardsville. It is a very nice area, yet very different from JC. It doesn't have a night life, but is not far from towns that offer that (Morristown, Somerville.) The town is basically asleep after 9pm. I miss the quietness of that area. I've considered moving back to that area, but think I would find it too boring and uneventful for now.

Post on reddit about how our politicians run people over and then 911 won't respond to your call afterwards. As far as I can tell this is 85% of jersey city's culture.

For Ramen, I like Muteki and Ramen Green in the 99 Ranch food court. Ani and Miso ramen are both ok but not something to rave about

this is such a great question and i feel like something that i've loved about JC that i didn't get when i lived in NYC

there are local neighborhood associations, animal rescues, park groups, gardening groups, volunteering organizations, reddit community meetups, and a lot of the highrises themselves have building facebook pages etc

Ramen: Menya Sandaime

Pho: Thanh Huong

Seconding Saigon Bistro: it's my go to for no-frills pho

For ramen: Miso Ramen is solid but Muteki (either JC or Hoboken) and South Street (Hoboken) are probably the best of the bunch

It's not in JC but there are some awesome hand pulled noodles somewhat similar to Pho at Shan Shan in Parsippany. And I know it's sort of a chain but the Ramen at Inspirationroll (Morristown) is pretty solid.

Would you take in two? I have two super sweet siblings that I have to give up due to an ending relationship and moving.

Ramen Green in 99 Ranch.

Whoa! Awesome shot!

What neighborhood are you in?

Welcome! What are your interests? It’s a big city with a lot of diversity.

People are going to tell you NYC… but Miso and Ani are equally ok. Ani for dining in, Miso for takeout.

Kung pho on grand or Saigon Bistro in the heights. Both solid choices

Oh I see. Unfortunately I don't believe Jersey City, or really any municipality in NJ, has the resources to deal with his condition. Pretty much all the mental health facilities are closed and patients, if seen by medical professionals, are released on something like self care. (There was a whole documentary on this a while ago, but based in NYC). Which is why so many are on the streets left to harm themselves, potentially others. It's F'd up but until the mental healthcare systems are overhauled, I doubt there's anything to be done.

I'm a fan of aniramen
