# Ramen in Rochor

Ramen shops in Singapore are mostly Japanese chains and local independents serving tonkotsu, shoyu, miso and chicken paitan. Tonkotsu is pork-based, so standard ramen is not halal; a handful of ramen outlets are MUIS-certified with chicken broth. Check whether prices are nett or "++" and whether toppings are extra.

## How to choose
- Expect queues at peak lunch; many shops do not take bookings for small groups.
- Toppings (egg, chashu, extra noodles) are usually charged separately – compare the full bowl price.
- For halal ramen, verify the outlet on the MUIS directory; 'pork-free' broth alone is not certification.
- Ask for broth richness and noodle firmness if the shop offers customisation.

## FAQs
### Is there halal ramen in Singapore?
Yes, a few ramen outlets hold MUIS halal certification, typically using chicken or beef broth. Standard tonkotsu is pork-based and Japanese seasonings often contain alcohol. Check the outlet on the MUIS directory or MuslimSG app.

### What does "++" mean on a Singapore menu?
"++" means a 10% service charge and 9% GST will be added. GST is charged on the service charge too, so the multiplier is 1.1 × 1.09 = 1.199 – a $50++ meal costs about $59.95. IRAS lets restaurants that levy a service charge show pre-GST prices, but they must state prominently that prices are subject to GST and service charge.

### What happened to the A, B, C, D hygiene grades in Singapore?
From 19 January 2026 SFA replaced the annual A–D hygiene grade with the SAFE framework. Outlets now get A (more than three years with no major lapse), B (one to three years), NEW (operating under a year) or C (a court conviction for a food-safety offence or a licence suspension under the demerit-points system). Scan the QR code on the SFA licence at the counter to see the current grade.
