So the Chabuya folks from Japan finally opened their first Singapore outlet last weekend (313 Orchard Road #B2-01, 6636-8335). I wasn't getting my hopes up, as this outlet specialized in tonkotsu, something that is totally overplayed out here. Nonetheless, when I realized that this guy actually got a Michelin star for his shop in Hong Kong, I was curious.
Fortunately, they did mini bowls here, which allowed me to try both a tonkotsu as well as a shoyu. The shoyu was rather flat (not what I was hoping for), but the tonkotsu was better than I was expecting. I'm kinda curious to know what his other shops taste like now; somehow I suspect that the Singapore menu isn't giving us a complete picture of what he is capable of.
