Ippudo Ramen

The Straits Times - Life ! (3 Dec 2009)

"It was very good. The soup was flavourful and the noodles were springy. The service was very attentive too."

Service and food was reported comparable to the outlet in Ippudo, Japan.

This restaurant does not take table reservations. When I was there, to my horror, there were at least 30 people queuing in front of me. Aiyoh, a quick check with the staff revealed that I have to wait at least 45 minutes for my turn. NB, famed ramen chain opens in Singapore yet my first visit turn out to be a disappointment.
