With art, recipes, and stories contributed by more than 70 artists, as well as renowned cooks and food writers, it embraces ramen in an astonishing array of forms. Slaps writes: \"I wanted to curate a book that was artistic enough to be an art book, but food orientated enough to be a cookbook. Initially, I asked artists to illustrate their favorite instant noodle creations. Additionally, they could share a recipe, a title and the price of the ingredients needed to make the dish. Once this exciting instant noodle art started to come in, I knew that I needed more. I began to think about actual ramen and started to find and interview some of today’s top ramen chefs and enthusiasts. I went down the rabbit hole of ramen. This book is a visual record of my adventures.\" Among the contributors and featured subjects:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChris Ying, former editor-in-chief of \u003cem\u003eLucky Peach\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEsther Choi of Mokbar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbram Plaut, aka @ramen_beast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEric Khoo, director of the Singaporean indy film \"Ramen Shop\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisual artists Katie Benn, Naoki Onadera, Mariah GW, Rosie Yasukochi, Umar Rashid, Tara Booth, Yerrie Choo, and many others\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRamen Forever\u003c\/em\u003e touches on class and poverty, perfectionism and interchangeability, nostalgia and improvisation.
