DAIKAYA.  i may not be a ramen expert, but i know a good one when it hits the tongue.  new york practically has a ramen house on every corner--it's even inspired a map that can be purchased for your enjoyment and livelihood.  folks aren't so lucky in washington dc when it comes to number of noodle joints...but what they do have are gems.  and daikaya is leading the pack.  geared towards a younger and hip crowd, their bowls are filled with fresh and hearty ingredients, flavorful broths and expertly cooked ramen noodles.  i filled my belly with their shio ramen and a side of their chicken and pork fried dumplings.  i'm still full.
