At IKI, ramen isn’t just food. Rooted in decades of experience in belief that small things matter.It’s a daily practice of balance, patience, and respect for nature’s flavours. Our broth is not loud, but it speaks gently and warmly after being simmered for over 48 hours to draw out every layer of flavour. It’s the kind of soup you drink slowly, gratefully, to the very last drop because it feels personal. Like someone made it just for you.

What’s different about our ramen?

No Added MSG. Flavour comes from time, technique, and carefully sourced ingredients. Seasoned with shio & shoyu bases to highlight, not mask the broth.
