The name of Torasho Ramen & Charcoal Bar is a portmanteau of the names of its partners: renowned restaurateur Tora Widjaja and Head Chef Sho Naganuma. Together, they bring their extensive experience in the culinary world to curate a sophisticated Japanese menu that not only satisfies the cosmopolitan Singaporean palate but is also affordable.
One of the best things about Torasho's ramen is that it combines classic flavors with a contemporary twist. In other words, their ramen is simply delicious.
Highlights:
- A range of ramen experiences: Torasho offers a variety of ramen experiences, including classic ramen with a contemporary twist, dipping ramen, and dry ramen. If you’re looking for an unadulterated ramen feast, the classic option is your best bet. Dipping ramen allows you to have full control of your ingredients, while dry ramen offers a truly unique experience.
- Cold Stupid Ramen: It’s an absolutely curious name for a bowl of ramen, but this is where the Torasho ingenuity comes in. Their signature dish is a melange of the sea’s bountiful offerings: king crab, lobster, ama ebi, uni, and ikura; in tasteful harmony with a cold bowl of ramen noodles.
- A fine-dining experience at a fraction of a price: Imagine this: starting at S$12.84, you get to feast over a scrumptious ramen bowl that bears the Tora-Sho tandem signature. Torasho also offers a curated Premium menu that features upscale Japanese ingredients and ways of cooking. Take the Donabe Claypot Rice for example—the melt-in-your-mouth Wagyu A5 Zabuton with a delicate Onsen Egg ($62.06).
