Now Neung Thai Kitchen will have a new neighbor: Ramen Musashi, a popular Scarsdale Japanese eatery, will open an Ardsley location next door.

Paul Roos, who co-owns Ramen Musashi with head chef Hiro Teraki and Jin Miyawaki, said he and his partners had been looking to expand and knew many of their customers were from the Rivertowns. “So we just kind of thought, let's give it a go,” he said.

Scarsale's Ramen Musha-shi opened behind the long-established Fuji Mart in 2016. The new Ardsley store will also feature a miniature version of Fuji Mart and will stock some of the original store's best-selling products: “It's a little retail section with Japanese snacks and sweets, cute stuffed animals and toys,” Ruth said.
