About This Branch

CHIJMES = the original SG concept. Historic convent setting. Compact ramen counter. Deliberately focused menu.

Hamaguri clam + pork broth — not standard tonkotsu. Truffle oil as aromatic layer, not gimmick. Rich yet refined. This earned the Tokyo Michelin star.

3 min from City Hall MRT. CHIJMES itself is worth visiting — 19th-century Gothic chapel, photogenic courtyard.

Your Dining Journey

01

Order the Truffle Shoyu Soba

The Michelin star dish. Sip broth alone first — clam sweetness, then truffle, then pork depth. This complexity is what sets it apart.

02

Eat Slowly

Unlike tonkotsu, this rewards patience. Truffle intensifies as bowl cools. Noodles carry the delicate broth. Take your time.

03

Add Gyoza

Gyoza with good char, juicy filling. Order alongside ramen, not before — start with broth at peak aroma.

04

CHIJMES Courtyard After

CHIJMES = restored 19C convent, Gothic chapel, courtyard. Walk through for photos. National Museum and Raffles Hotel nearby.

05

Visit 100AM for the Oyster Version

100AM's Ura Hototogisu has oyster ramen — oyster paste, oil, genmai cha broth. Same brand, totally different bowl.

Editor's Note

What to know before you go

Most interesting ramen in CBD. Michelin star from Tokyo (note distinction). Honest: weekday lunch-dinner gap, tight seats, ~S$17-19 per bowl. Contains shellfish. For tonkotsu purists: this is a revelation.
