Canadian illustrator Sara Gonzalez recently hosted a “Ramen Room” exhibition in which she explored the history and cultural context of the esteemed Asian noodle dish, from instant styrofoam cups to ramen burgers. Through her intricately detailed drawings, Gonzalez paints a suitable homage to a food that has “sparked tens of thousands of restaurants worldwide,” and “provided affordable comfort to millions of destitute college students across the globe.”
