How to eat ramen

When I first saw a Japanese eating ramen, I have to say that I am a bit intimidated. I mean I love the japanese food, but the hot piping broth, slicky and slimmy noodle, and chopsticks and a spoon? how to manouver all of those? I tried to google the tips on how to eat ramen especially for a non Japanese. I encounter lots of tips but I think I have compiled a quite extensive list.

How to eat ramen:

1. Ramen is casual food that usually eaten quickly and with relish or topping. Once you have ramen ready to be eaten in front of you, put the chopsticks in your right hand and the spoon in your left.
2. Use your chopsticks to gracefully shovel or lift noodles into your mouth, and also to handle all the solid goodies, meat or egg.
3. You can also use the spoon to lift some noodles into your mouth and then slurp them off.
4. But the spoon’s main use is to transport the hot broth to your mouth.
5. Don’t add condiments until you’ve tasted your soup.
6. Enjoy the broth, especially if it's homemade broth. It’s even acceptable to pick up the bowl and tilt it directly into your face.
