Despite its rather decrepit appearance, Orchard Plaza is home to some effortlessly cool spots, including Orchard Bak Chor Mee and Ramen Soshiji. Adding to that list is the pop-up eatery Yet To Name, which will be serving up bowls of ramen till the end of July.

There’s already plenty of hype surrounding this low-key ramen bar, which has only 10 seats and a maximum of 50 bowls served each day. Snaking queues form shortly after it opens for the day—I was caught in one when I visited recently, on a weekend.

Much of the hype is fuelled by Yet To Name’s interesting concept: fish ramen created with Hirofumi Imamura, chef-owner of the now-defunct Japanese restaurant IMAMURA. The specific broth you get varies depending on when you visit: there’s the Hirame Ramen, featuring a shoyu-based flounder broth, and the Engawa Ramen, which uses flounder fin to create a creamier paitan-esque broth. Both of these cost just $15, without any GST or service charge.

While I can’t comment on the Engawa Ramen, the Hirame Ramen impressed me. It had a clean yet savoury broth, defined by the umami of shoyu and the delicate flavour of flounder. Sashimi-grade snapper and wasabina leaves complete this elegant bowl of ramen. I felt that the noodles were a little overcooked, but that could just be an issue with my batch.

We hear that the food sells out by 1pm, so do drop by early if you’d like to snag a bowl!
