The interior of the restaurant is tastefully decorated with Chinese-Japanese fusion styles, almost reflecting Ramen Isshi's fusion cuisine that comes with an exotic blend of Chinese and Japanese. The pretty bags and tupperwares on display are also for sale.We had the Carrot Cake with Saffron (SGD$8.00), they came in the cutest mini-carrots shape imaginable! Made with Japanese mochi and infused with XO sauce, one could not help but marvel at the surge of flavors of this simple, chewy, sticky deli

We had the Carrot Cake with Saffron (SGD$8.00), they came in the cutest mini-carrots shape imaginable! Made with Japanese mochi and infused with XO sauce, one could not help but marvel at the surge of flavors of this simple, chewy, sticky delicacy. The further surprise was a bit of bouncy shrimp found within the carrot cake, enhancing flavor and texture.
The next item was a hit with most of us from first bite - the Tuna Sashimi & Avocado Salad (SGD$12.00). It was served in a miniature tower with the avocado patty as the base, topped with egg yolk and tuna sashimi; the glass of seaweed sheets was by the side. One has to scoop the ingredients and roll them into sushi - it was simply tantalising in taste!
Finally we got to the Ramen itself. We started with the Shiro Ramen (SGD$12.00) - the conventional Tonkotsu soup base ramen. The soup was luscious and not too rich, and the chashu juicy. The noodle was awesome - very, very springy; it was so lovely to chew on these bouncy strands.
Last but not least, time for desserts. We were served the Almond Jelly with Framboise (SGD$5.00), giving us a touch of French now. This refreshing, silky sweet dessert consisted of almond, raspberry and passionfruit. Ironically the flavor of the usually salient almond was obliterated by the sourness of the raspberry; and the dessert reminded us of panna cotta.For the full review and more photographs, please feel free to visit:
