Tori King Ramen @ 100AM, Amara Hotel, 100 Tras Street, 03-15, from 11.30am to 10pm daily
After reading how some online articles have been raving on how good this ramen place is, i decided to try out this newly opened ramen place for a friend's birthday treat. The founder, Keisuke Takeda, was once selected as the top ramen chef in Japan and crowned as Ramen King. We can easily identify this place by the queue forming out the restaurant during dinner. No reservation is allowed so just be prepared to queue.
The menu is very simple. You got three kind of soup bases, the original, peppery black spicy, and green Spicy. Tori King uses chicken broth Unlike many traditional ramen places which uses pork broth. In comparison to Marutama ramen which also uses chicken broth, Tori King's broth is stronger and much more flavorful.
According to some article, the stock is made from chicken bones, chicken feet, Japanese seaweed and an assortment of vegetables and boiled for eight hours. One of the best part is the chicken drumstick. Chef Keisuke said the chicken is boiled for 45 minutes and submerged overnight in soy sauce and is grilled before it's served.
Those who love heavy broth will definitely love this place. In my opinion, this is one of the best ramen that i ever had.
