Among their signature dish is their Shio Butter Ramen, with butter, bean sprouts, nori, and chashu pork in a salt-based broth is a must-try to say the least. It’s buttery, hearty, and screams full indulgence.

For something guilt-free, try their Nagasaki Champon, a healthy ramen creation from Nagasaki prefecture inspired by Chinese cuisine. It’s a noodle creation that’s salty, thick, and umami topped with shrimp, pork, carrot, cabbage, and scallions.

Diners may also try their Yakitori Moriawase, a chicken skewer platter featuring Negima (chicken with scallion), Tsukune (savory chicken meatballs), and Torikawa (crispy chicken skin). Each skewer is carefully slow-grilled to bring out its natural flavors and perfect texture.
Guests can customize each stick with their preferred seasoning such as the savory touch of shio (salt), the rich umami of tare (soy-based sauce), or even a half-and-half style for a mix of both worlds.
