Az amerikai Abby (Brittany Murphy) teljesen magára marad Tokióban, amikor a barátja váratlanul szakít vele. Kétségbeesésében munkát vállal a szomszédja, Maezumi (Toshiyuki Nishida), az idősödő mesterszakács és a felesége, Reiko (Kimiko Yo) éttermében. A férfi levese hatására Abby elhatározza, hogy beáll mellé tanulónak. Kitartóan dolgozik, annak ellenére, hogy az öreg állandóan kiabál és zsarnokoskodik vele. Idővel azonban a mester és a tanítványa megtalálják a közös hangot. (Filmcafe)

If it weren't for the Japanese setting, I'd probably rate the film as average. As it is, it's a little above average. Brittany Murphy was a great choice for the Ramen Girl. Her absent-mindedness and temperament dances with Japanese calm and composure. The atmosphere of the restaurant makes the film enjoyable. But it is definitely not a comedy, and certainly not a romance. A nice 3.5 stars. ()
I really wanted a comedy; this just wasn't anything of the kind. It's not even really a romance. It's something set in the work environment, and it happens to be set in Japan. That's why the moron Abby can't just be forgiven. :-D No, I wasn't really interested. I just got a craving for ramen, and where am I supposed to satisfy it? And it's got a weird ending. For me, anyway. A little bit Japanese and a lot too – ruinously – American. Otherwise, I can recommend it to anyone who knows nothing about Japan. For the rest of us, I'd be more likely to recommend Lost in Translation (if you want to go to Japan with the Yanks ^^). ()
