Is there ever a wrong time for ramen? No. It all starts with the soup, right? The delicious flavors are infused into the broth, and then you can customize it by adding your favorite flavors. You can add soy sauce, miso, siracha, and so on. Other ingredients include eggs, vegetables, scallions, garlic, chicken, or other proteins. 

LoveFood has put out a list of "The Best Ramen in Every State," On their list, they have Island Sushi and Ramen in Boise as the best ramen in Idaho. But, we wanted to highlight more than just one place in Boise putting some delicious ramen.

If you're like me, who has a significant other that isn't a fan of slurping a delicious broth, noodles, and an assortment of other ingredients, then you'll appreciate some of the restaurants on this list that have more than just ramen. So we will highlight those items as well. 

What do you love the most about ramen? 

Ramen, for me, it's all about the broth and the noodles. The broth in the ramen can have so many different flavors, and some would say good ramen would take you to "Flavor Town."
