what are the best ramen spots in brooklyn + manhattan and why

hi all! i’m moving to the city soon and as a foodie im already making a list of all the best food spots to hit up as soon as i land. last time i was in the city i went to shinjuku ramen on west 56th st and had the most scrumptious squid ink ramen so i’m looking for some other places i can have a similar experience. i would like some recommendations for ramen spots in brooklyn and manhattan people think are the the best and why the specific place mentioned holds up as such. i’m not picky at all with my food and i like to try everything, and honestly the more “adventurous” the meal the more i want to try it (i will say tho, i love thicker, chewy noodles and spicy, umami flavored broth that is also on the thicker side). definitely a plus if the place has dessert lol but not a strict requirement. let me know what y’all think, thanku!!

ISO: loose leaf blunt wraps

hi, all! i just relocated to the city from california. i’ve been searching desperately for some loose leaf brand blunt wraps to no avail. every smoke shop owner looks at me crazy for asking for them and they either show me some woods or some palms instead, which i don’t feel are remotely the same. i’ll even settle for some swishers, but those don’t seem to exist here. i’m currently located in washington heights, but i’ll go as far as queens to buy some in bulk if i have to. please help!

rec mid-size fashion/stylist influencers that are Black or other POC

hi, all! just like the title says, i need recommendations for any Black or other insta/youtube influencers of color that are stylists or people who have a vast knowledge of fashion. i’m a 5’6ft, mid-size person (sz 12-16) with a pear body shape i think. my bust is 40in, my waist is 38in, and my hips are 47in. & i want to start following ppl with a similar body type/size. the styles i would like to start embodying (but have no idea where/how to start) leans between colorful, maximalist, almost eclectic/tacky, expensive slutty (lol) and sexy, femme, ghetto-fab, street style look. i like having my stomach, back, and legs out, all at the same time or one at a time, with the occasional cleavage mixed in too. i included some pics with the general vibes i’m going for in my style without it being an exact copy. please drop any influencer recs or even (non-fast fashion) websites i can procure similar pieces at. thanks all!
