The one benefit of the early winter weather on Saturday was that it got us craving a hot bowl of delicious Ramen. We have our favorite places (Totto Ramen) but two of Gothamist’s editors debated over who makes the best bowl in town. Read their reviews and let us know your favorite spots!

Last night a New England-style clam shack opened in Brooklyn. Say hello to Littleneck everybody! The joint isn’t that big, but it’s pretty much exactly what you’d expect of a clam shack in Gowanus with chef Alan Harding (Gowanus Yacht Club, The Farm on Adderley, Chopped!) working the kitchen. Raw bar? Check. Lobster rolls? Check. Whole belly Ipswich clam rolls? You better believe it. (via Gothamist)

We’re in a pumpkin frame of mind today! One of our favorite food bloggers, Amy of AmyBlogsChow.com, shows us how to make pumpkin soup and cream of broccoli with Serena Norr of Seriously Soupy blog.

On Saturday, Oct. 23, Brooklynites will have the chance to taste over 20 different soups from local purveyors, on a stroll along Brooklyn’s beloved restaurant row between Atlantic Avenue and Carroll Street.
The festival will feature tastings from Seersucker, Verde, Lunetta, Bar Tabac and 17 others — and one $5 ticket ($10 for a family) gets you samples of all of them. (Via The Brooklyn Paper)
