so i went back to Ramen Atelier today for their 1-for-1 Ramen Noir ($14 nett for 2 bowls). the squid ink broth looks pretty cool i guess, but i felt that it otherwise tasted like a very ordinary bowl of miso based ramen. can't complain about their 3 slices of char siew as well as ramen egg though, which are both prepared sous-vide to perfection - the char siew is also blowtorch grilled to add to the flavour. perhaps the owners can consider adding truffle oil to the broth to give it more character; otherwise after a while it would probably taste just like any regular miso based ramen with a black coloured broth. still an insane value for $14 nett a bowl though. 4/5
