Review of Buta Ramen in 8 Days Magazine

Buta Ramen gets a  review in 8 Days January 30 issue.

 This is the cover of the magazine, it is quite an interesting read because it features the home life (reunion?) of Singapore celebs like Xiaxue (Wendy Cheng the blogger) and others that I do not know so well but fun to read about nonetheless.
 Please go to page 76 in the "Where to Eat" section


 Among the mouth watering food featured, you cannot miss the pictures of the signature Ramen!
 Short write-up due to space constraints:

Buta is Japanese for pig and this Singaporean ramen joint specialises in Hakata-style ramen and all things pork.  All the meat here is sous vide at 68.6 degrees for 24 hours.  Order you ramen in Original, Black Garlic or Red Spicy pork bone broth.  The signature dishes are "the boss of all ramen" the ahem, Boss Rib Ramen ($13.90) served with flame-grilled ribs glazed in a soy-based "yakitori" sauce, and the Original Chasiu Ramen ($11.90) with pork belly.

Buta Ramen opens in Far East Square, Singapore!!! Spore's only Pork Rib Tonkotsu Ramen Restaurant

(This is a cut-n-paste job from Buta Ramen Facebook and website)





We're opening on Wednesday, 9 October 2013  To 

celebrate, we'll be giving out FREE RAMEN till we run out! 

Just like us on Facebook - Buta Ramen and get your free 

bowl.

Our address is #01-04 Far East Square. We start at 11am!





The opening day queue snaked all the way....!!!



Sold out! Thanks for your support! We were entirely out of 

Ramen by 1pm.



Our opening day was a big hit! The queue started at 11am and snaked all the way along the corridor. We sold out by 1pm.
We were surprised at the turnout because we only informed everyone two days in advance. Amazing what the web and social media can do!
So sorry to those that missed out. We did give out the specially stamped Buta Ramen cards and those who have it can come back anytime with the card to redeem the FREE Ramen!
We’ve also received some wonderful feedback, thanks to those who took the time from slurping the ramen to fill out the form. We’re always trying to improve our service and food so keep the feedback coming.
Free Ramen Day was a good test of our service and kitchen operations too, a new team needs time to gel and find out how best to work together.
Will there be more free Ramen days? Hmmm… perhaps. Do like us on Facebook and keep updated on the latest going-ons in the Buta Ramen kitchen.

ABOUT BUTA RAMEN:


There are two things that bring a smile to our faces.
One: slurping (really loudly) a bowl of piping hot ramen noodles.
Two: munching on a pork rib that’s so tender that meat falls off the bone.R
No point having all the fun to ourselves. So that’s why we created Buta Ramen. Sharing is caring, no?
Buta Ramen is founded by three Singaporean guys – Chris, John and Sandy – who are passionate about eating and cooking and influenced greatly by this new-fangled thing called ‘Modernist Cuisine’.
Our ramen recipe might be steeped in Japanese tradition, but we apply modern cooking approaches to our food. Call it a combination of art and science if you will. Just what do we do? It’s a secret of course! (We like to keep things mysterious).
We’ll be posting updates to promotions, upcoming dishes and seasonal one-off menus on this blog and on our Facebook page. So do check back often.
Buta Ramen can be found at Far East Square, just off China Street in the CBD. We are open weekdays for lunch and dinner. Don’t look for us on the weekends and on public holidays, we’ll be closed.
For media enquiries, please email us: press[at]butaramen.com
Buta Ramen is open weekdays Monday to Friday from 11.00am to 8.00pm. Last orders at 7.30pm. We close on Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays.

with functional furnishings that suit the brusqueness of the lunchtime brood
 Why his boss ribs are the boss? It is all spelt out here...


Every bowl of ramen is served with fall-off-the-bone Yakitori-glazed Pork Ribs
 (We loved the pork ribs so much we call it Boss Ribs!)
with his secret recipe and giveaway prices , it is no wonder you can eat like a boss!

Here is my sis at work in the kitchen
(The only place in Singapore where you can get tender Pork Ribs with your ramen.)
she will be producing steaming bowls of Ramen for us...
 (Our ribs are slow-cooked over 24-hours until the meat falls off the bone. We then glaze it with Yakitori sauce and char it over an open-flame. The boss of all ramen!)

HERE HE COMES!!

Each serving of Buta Ramen comes with Chasiu or Pork Ribs, topped with Nori (Japanese seaweed), Menma (Japanese-style pickled Bamboo Shoots) and

 Ajitsuke Tamago (a beautifully cooked soft-boiled egg) and freshly-sliced leek.
 enjoy!

These are the ramen we had:

Special Boss Ribs Original Ramen (S$13.90)

The only place in Singapore where you can get tender Pork Ribs with your ramen. Our ribs are slow-cooked over 24-hours until the meat falls off the bone. We then glaze it with Yakitori sauce and char it over an open-flame. The boss of all ramen!

Original Chasiu Ramen (S$11.90) 
 Ultra-tender Chasiu that melts in your mouth. We use only the best pork belly and cook it overnight in our unique marinade.

Red Spicy Chasiu Ramen (S$12.90) or Red Spicy Pork Rib Ramen (S$14.90)
Our specially-made Red Spicy Ramen is a big hit with Ramen-lovers who like their soup with a spicy hot punch.


Black Garlic Chasiu Ramen (S$12.90) or Black Spicy Pork Rib Ramen (S$14.90)
Black Garlic is one of our founder’s personal favourite. The aromas of charred garlic steeped in Japanese sesame oil is hard to resist.


My spicy ramen!


we also tried the dried ramen only S9.90!

Our latest offering, Black Garlic Dry Ramen! It's a delicious 

dry ramen that's tossed with our special black garlic oil 

sauce. Served with flamed-grilled pork belly, seaweed,

marinated eggs and bamboo. Now on promotion at $9.90!


It is also open for takeaway


 Look at our satisfied faces and happy tummies!
3 things that Sandy likes:
