Ramen Champion is proud to announce that it will now house Gyumaru at its Bugis+ enclave. Gyumaru is the first ramen restaurant in Singapore to serve Gyukotsu Ramen (beef bone ramen), which is a rare dish in the ramen world.
A riff on the popular tonkotsu, the fully emulsified broth of the Gyukotsu Ramen boasts a clear consistency and a pronounced piquant flavour of beef fat. Relish the palate-enveloping note of the beef broth, which is made with beef bone and oxtail. The entire preparation takes two days to complete — the broth is first boiled for nine hours, before it is cooled and refrigerated for it to set into a thick and flavourful concentrate. Each beef broth cube is then simmered over low heat before it is served.
The broth is accompanied with springy thin noodles custom-made from a local Japanese noodle making specialist — for the doneness, there are two options to choose from: soft and hard. Thick tender cubes of well-marbled ribeye sourced domestically from a halal-certified supplier are placed atop the ribbons of al-dente noodles. Other ingredients including green onions and Japanese leek contribute delicate notes to the overall dish. Top the dish with the optional coriander for a local twist and additional fragrant lift!
Gyumaru is in the process of receiving its Halal certification — Muslim gourmands can very soon enjoy non-pork ramen!

Tendon specialist Tendon Kohaku and unagi specialist Man Man Unagi have started a brand-new collaborative dining concept at Clarke Quay Central! Since their respective openings, both of these F&B concepts have been drawing long queues every day, winning over the hearts of local gourmands with their authentic Japanese specialities. Now, fans of the two brands can tuck into both tendons and unagi just side by side at the two new restaurants.
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
| |
| |
At the new outlet, Tendon Kohaku will present an exclusive item: Kaisen Tendon by Kohaku and Teppei (S$26.50++). The item follows the kaisen don recipe by Chef Teppei Yamashita, who helms Teppei Japanese restaurant and Man Man Unagi.
Other exclusive items include Jumbo Unagi Tendon (S$29++), a glorious showstopper of huge eel encased in crispy tempura exterior. The Premium Chawanmushi with Unagi and Ikura (S$6.50++) is made with egg, chicken broth, chicken, shiitake mushroom and spring onion. The treasures that are unagi and fish cake are embedded within the wobbly offering; glistening globes of ikura are set atop it. There is also the Crispy Unagi Dragon Roll (S$9++): a combination of tempura prawn, tempura crabstick and avocado are draped across vinegared Japanese rice.
Man Man Unagi will also offer an exclusive item: Kaisen x Hitsumabushi by Teppei and Man Man (S$32.50++). The restaurant is renowned for its unagi offerings – its success is in part due to its insistence on using only premium Japanese eel. Drenching the eel is a thick, rich and moreish unagi sauce. At the new restaurant, you can ask for refills of the sauce! The perfectly grilled eel, which has a wonderful smoky aroma, is paired with Nanatsuboshi white rice and fresh wasabi. There are three ways to enjoy hitsumabushi: on its own; with a mix of condiments, wasabi and green onions; and with soup added to the aforementioned mix. The unagi is served alongside an exquisite kaisen don with a secret-recipe sauce from Teppei Japanese restaurant.

MAI by Dashi Master Marusaya is a premium dashi concept restaurant by Japanese katsuobushi wholesaler, Marusaya. The 38-seater restaurant is dedicated to serving authentic Japanese dishes using superior ingredients directly imported from Japan, together with all-natural dashi made from special aged bonito and quality konbu. The Marusaya group also runs two other Japanese dining concepts in Singapore: Dashi Master Marusaya and Ten Sushi and Bar, since 2014.
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
| |
| |
Founded in 1962, Marusaya is dedicated to supplying katsuobushi for commercial use, with over 9,000 customers from food establishments including soba, udon, ramen and Japanese kappo restaurants. The dashi used at MAI is of a different calibre, as the company takes pride in its Satsuma 2-year-old hongare-honbushi, made from skipjack tuna which is dried and fermented over two years. This is unlike other katsuobushi, which is fermented only over a year. The extended period of fermentation draws out almost all moisture and concentrates the flavour of the katsuobushi, making it especially strong in umami. The aged bonito is then cooked with specially imported Rishiri kelp – one of the best categories of kelp that’s harvested around Hokkaido – for over an hour, to produce a broth that reveals sophisticated flavours, which is thoughtfully infused into every dish. It is worthy to note that besides dashi, no MSG or any other chemical seasoning is used. One can be assured of a delicious, healthy and authentic Japanese dining experience at MAI.

Unaemon is one of the 6 Japanese food brands that can be enjoyed at the newly-opened Gochi on Church Street.
Established in Japan in 1950, Unaemon was co-founded in Japan by the owner of Taga, a 147-year old unagi specialty restaurant, and the third owner of Kiyoizumi, a historical unagi restaurant in Hinode-cho, Yokohama.
Unaemon has seven chefs who specialize in cooking unagi. As cooking eel is a difficult and technical process which requires years of experience, two highly-skilled chefs will be based in Singapore to oversee things in the kitchen.
Their Singapore restaurant will serve their signature Unajyu, and there are plans to serve the popular original dish Unagi Shabu-shabu in the future.
Unaemon is also highly committed to sourcing the best ingredients for its dishes.

Step through the hidden entrance amidst beautiful greenery and treat yourself to a cosy, intimate dining experience – starting with its discrete location; an unassuming entrance via a dark black door with frosted glass panels; a charming vaulted roof; copper-hued interiors; with a Japanese folk playlist providing background chatter.
The restaurant offers the same yakitori selection as its outpost in Tiong Bahru, as well as a selection of luxurious offerings and seasonal items, only available at Bincho at Min Jiang.

Set in the lush flora of Dempsey Hill, the 40-seater restaurant occupies the 1000 square foot space of the monochrome one-story colonial building. Situated away from the main cluster, the restaurant provides a tranquil escape away from the bustling lifestyle and dining enclave of Dempsey, complete with a beautiful green picturesque backdrop.
Following his success at running Bincho at Hua Bee, the new Bincho at Min Jiang will be helmed by Executive Chef Asai Masashi, who hails from the HyÅgo Prefecture in Japan. Formerly of the prestigious Abeno Tsuji Culinary Institute, Asai-san spent thirteen years of his career refining his skills at various dining destinations in HyÅgo, Osaka, and Kyoto.
Growing up in the HyÅgo Prefecture, surrounded by pristine produce from the land and sea, Asai-san developed an appreciation for exquisite, seasonal ingredients from a young age. Holding these ingredients in high regard, he thoughtfully curates his menu according to the 24 micro seasons in the Japanese calendar, showcasing the best ingredients each season has to offer.
With more than 30 years of experience under his belt, Chef Asai Masashi understands the importance of precision execution over simple ingredients and continues to masterfully shares his philosophy of Japanese grilling to Bincho at Min Jiang.

True to the restaurant’s name ‘Bincho’, synonymous to the famed Japanese white charcoal Bincho-tan, the restaurant offers a selection of Yakitori grilled to perfection over an open fire. The signature Yakitori Platter features various part of the chicken, where no protein is left out, from the chicken thigh, breast, neck, wing, skin to its tail, heart, liver, gizzard, and cocks comb.
Another note-worthy dish Chef Asai created for the new restaurant is the Uni Shabu Shabu, featuring a luxurious ‘Uni broth’ made from fresh Sea Urchin. The creamy, cloudy dashi-based broth boasts a light orange colour and a distinct aromatic fragrance. Originated first in Osaka, Japan, the Uni Shabu Shabu set features the broth served in a personal sized hot-pot, a spread of air-flown seasonal seafood items (eg Oyster, Crab, Abalone, Prawn), seasonal vegetables and sashimi-grade Sea Urchin.
Guests may enjoy the fresh seafood shabu-shabu style over the simmering broth. To complete the dish, the server uses remaining soup broth in the hotpot to prepare an umami-rich Uni Porridge using Yumepirika rice, spring onions and other condiments like kizami nori (seaweed) and shichimi (seven-spiced powder). The rich, creamy and comforting Japanese porridge is topped with fresh uni.
On Bincho’s grilled menu is Yasai Maki (translated as Vegetable Rolls), a type of meat rolls featuring thinly sliced pork or beef, wrapped around seasonal vegetables, skewered and grilled. The range of Yasai Maki features an extensive list of seasonally available vegetables like Japanese long yam, young corn and mushroom amongst others. Grilled over the Bincho-tan charcoal, these skewers offer a wonderful mix of textures and flavors, with each meat roll paired with its own complementing sauce.

Shatoburian is an exciting new concept in Japanese Yakiniku dining that recently made its debut at Palais Renaissance. Connoisseurs and lovers of prime Japanese wagyu beef would already be familiar with its sister restaurant, Black Cow, which is beloved for its exceptional Japanese wagyu beef and farm-to-table approach.
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
| |
| |
Like Black Cow, Shatoburian’s menu features prime cuts of Japanese Wagyu beef and fresh seasonal ingredients from different regions in Japan. The owners also frequently source for ingredients abroad to infuse a modern twist to Japanese cuisine. Depending on seasonal availability, diners at Shatoburian have the opportunity to savour caviar and foie gras from France, as well as high-end truffles such as French Périgord, Alba White, and Manjimup Black truffles from Italy and Australia.
‘Shatoburian’ is derived from a phonetic play on chateaubriand, which as Wagyu aficionados know, is made from the most tender cut of the cow. The restaurant prides itself on serving primarily Hida Wagyu Beef – winner of the coveted prize in the Wagyu Olympics and favoured for its unique juiciness and mesh-like marbling in most cuts. Hida cattle originate from Takayama in Gifu Prefecture, Central Japan and they are bred in a wide expanse of land with plenty of clean air and spring water.
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
| |
| |
The restaurant practises sustainable cooking, so it imports the entire Wagyu cattle (nose to tail approach). This means diners at Shatoburian have the opportunity to sample a wide selection of over 30 different Wagyu beef cuts presently not widely available in Singapore.
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
| |
| |
One of the highly recommended Wagyu cuts on Shatoburian’s menu is misuji, which comes from the shoulder clod also known as oyster blade (flat iron). This scarce cut yields enticingly complex and rich flavours, and is a scarce cut because only 3kg is available from one animal. Shatoburian offers A3 & A5 grade marbling for this cut. Other selections of Wagyu include tokujo rosu, which is premium lean meat and zabuton, a medium cut that is evenly marbled with a lovely, balanced flavour.
Diners with a more adventurous palate must give the tongue moto or the fatty tongue a go. The highest quality portion of the root of the tongue, tongue moto is a beautiful pink colour with just the perfect amount of fat. Savour this appetising dish in all its crispy, pleasant firmness, and juicy flavour. Sliced like fresh mango cubes to enhance the texture of the meat, this special cut is also styled to resemble thepattern of the partition behind our chef’s special counter table.

Helmed by chef Kenji Okumura, Teppan Kappou Kenji is a modern Japanese diner where diners can indulge in a multi-course menu in Kappou-style with premium and exclusive ingredients sourced directly from Japan.
Using only the freshest and finest ingredients of the season, Chef Kenji Okumura’s creatively intriguing menu includes his signature teppanyaki dishes. Apart from exquisitely prepared sushi, sashimi, sukiyaki, hotpot, the highlight is the Omakase dining experience which not only dips below the usual $200 bracket but can be personalized.

Despite the exceptional quality of ingredients, Teppan Kappou Kenji has made every attempt to keep dining affordable with Omakase that starts at $150. While the modest, kappou-style cuisine is offered in three fixed menus for dinner; Hana, Kiri, Aoi ranging from $60 to $120, the Omakase set lunch treat starts from a digestible S$50.

Japanese "Ramen King", Chef Keisuka Takeda has launched Singapore's first dedicated Duck Ramen restaurant, "Ginza Kamo Soba Kyudaime Keisuke" at Holland Village.
|
|
|
| |
| |
|
| |

This local branch is the first Keisuke restaurant located in the West side of Singapore, offering six ramen choices; including two variations of duck broth (rich and clear), miso, spicy miso, tsukemen (dipping noodles) and mazesoba (dry ramen). All ramen is served with slices of premium Irish hybrid duck – favoured for its ample fat that adds to the tender texture and rich flavour of the flesh.
Meaning ‘ninth generation’ in Japanese, ‘kyudaime’ refers to Kamo Soba Keisuke being the ninth ramen concept by Chef Keisuke. It is also the 13th restaurant under the Ramen Keisuke Group’s portfolio of 12 stalwart brands.

|
|
| |

Since opening its first outlet in Singapore in 2012 in Plaza Singapura, Hoshino has been gaining popularity with the local clientele who visit the various outlets for the carefully prepared hand-dripped coffee, the Fuwa Fuwa Souffle, Omu Rice and fluffy Pancakes.

Serving both the residential as well as office base, OneKM is near Paya Lebar MRT and targets aspirational urbanites and families living in East Coast as well as the students and working executives in the area.
