Bari Uma
Bari Uma: A Hidden Gem for Ramen Lovers. From our first bowl years ago to our most recent visit in 2021, Bari Uma continues to impress. While there was some debate over whether it should be classified as ‘other’ due to the Shoyu mix, the overall taste and characteristics still closely resemble the classic Tonkotsu. Discover why Bari Uma remains a top contender in this category, offering a memorable dining experience for ramen enthusiasts.

Tsuta Japanese Soba Noodle
Step into the world of Tsuta Japanese Soba Noodle and prepare to be amazed. At first, we were skeptical, as many Michelin chains boast about their accolades without delivering true excellence. However, Tsuta proved to be an exception. Despite expanding to multiple outlets, they have managed to maintain their high standards, impressing even the most discerning taste buds.
Ippudo
Prepare to be enthralled by the legendary Karaka-men at Ippudo, a dish so renowned that even the staff at the Taipei branch attested to its unrivaled popularity among Singaporeans for years. With a delightful touch of spiciness, perfectly balanced by Ippudo’s meticulous control, this sophisticated spicy ramen creation is a culinary masterpiece.

Enishi is a must-visit for those seeking a unique ramen experience. Their Michelin-worthy dashi ramen, infused with up to 32 spices, will challenge your perception of this beloved dish. Limited to serving only 100 bowls a day and with seating for just nine, plan your visit during off-peak hours to savor the extraordinary flavors that Enishi has to offer.
