[tasting] Tonkotsu Tsukemen by Menya Sakura

February 15, 2019

Menya Sakura is located at Orchid Hotel, Tanjong Pagar, and it specialises in Nagoya-style ramen. Menya Sakura only offers two different styles of Japanese ramen; Tonkotsu Broth, as well as Tsukemen (noodles with a dipping sauce).

There is a free-flow salad bar which is available for all patrons to help themselves to. Patrons are able to opt for hot or cold noodles to be served with their Tsukemen, and are also allowed to choose from varying portion sizes of the item from the order chit.

Though there is a limited variety on the menu, the quality of the food served is top notch. This is the aim for Menya Sakura as they wish to ensure quality and perfection in the dishes that they serve.

Apart from the Tonkotsu Tsukemen, we also had Aburi Char Siu too.

Thick noodles are chosen as they tasted better with the concentrated and flavorful broth, and the chashu pieces are also sliced thicker than those found in the usual soup ramen.

Menya Sakura’s Tonkotsu Tsukemen is one of the better ones I have had before, as it bears a well balance of density and savouriness. Ultimately, Menya Sakura makes their ramen simple, but tastes heavenly good! Lastly, thanks for hosting us!
