Show Me the Ramen!

NCM‘s Ola points me this Google blog post: “Finding Great Ramen Nearby.” As this link (of spots near Shinjuku that feature 1000 yen or less plate specials) shows, the Google local/maps are now covering Japan — quick link to Local Japan and Maps Japan.

Update: Oh man, I’ve started doing searches for cafes by area — this is the killer app!
