Franklin Avenue: Rate-A-Restaurant #349: Furious Spoon Ramen (Chicago)
http://franklinavenue.blogspot.com/2015/08/rate-restaurant-349-furious-spoon-ramen.html
The Ambassador's Last Stand. The Great Los Angeles Walk. Sunday, August 02, 2015. Rate-A-Restaurant #349: Furious Spoon Ramen (Chicago). 1571 N. Milwaukee Ave. (Chicago). We were meeting a few of Maria's high school friends, and first walking down the new "606" elevated park. After looking at restaurants in nearby Wicker Park, Furious Ramen sounded the most kid-friendly (and a nice change from everything else we were eating in Chicago). Cold ramen, hot ramen, add-on toppings. If back in Chicago, yes.

The Ambassador's Last Stand. The Great Los Angeles Walk. Monday, February 02, 2009. The Incredibly Shrinking Los Angeles Times. Lost in all the hand-wringing over the Los Angeles Times' elimination of the California section - a sure sign as any that the paper is waving the white flag, and giving up any hope of being the powerful, comprehensive newspaper it always aspired to be - was its announcement that the stand-alone Classified section would be cut as well. Thought your paper was already thin? Around&...
