The first ramen eatery to be awarded a Michelin Star, Tsuta has opened its second outlet at 18 Tai Seng. Unlike its first outlet that offers the shoyu soba and shio soba, the new outlet offers the new miso soba together with its signature shoyu soba. As per my earlier review, Singaporean may not be used to the type of ramen offered by Tsuta but the new miso soba is closer to what we have grown up eating with, the rich and creamy tonkotsu style.
Recommend Item: Miso Soba
