Torinosuke brought its signature Hiroshima-born chicken craft straight to Singapore’s central business district, setting up shop inside Millenia Walk. While much of the local ramen scene remains anchored in heavy pork-bone tonkotsu, this concept built its foundation on elevating poultry broth into a primary art form. Influenced by its original Hiroshima-style roots, the kitchen approaches chicken soup through extraction discipline, high-heat emulsification, and controlled salinity.

For a long time, Ah Boy Like Ramen has been about more than just finding a quick meal. It’s been about the technical side of the bowl—breaking down the noodles, the soup, the meat, and the toppings using a consistent framework to find what truly stands out. Today, I’m taking that same technical rigor and applying it to something new: The ABLR Online Store.
