Ikkousha Ramen

The stall that earned the most love at Bugis+’s noodle food court, Ramen Champion (which also has clusters in Changi Airport’s Terminal 3 and Great World City), Ikkokusha’s top hit is the Spicy Takana Ramen ($15), which helped pave the way for its own outposts at CHIJMES and Tanjong Pagar Plaza. All the Hakata-style ramen bowls here are good, thin, springy noodles that are blanched for just 15 seconds and served with a pure pork broth and a perfectly flavoured egg. The Takana version is distinguished by its namesake slightly sour, crunchy preserved vegetable from Japan, which adds lift to the rich, savoury broth.
