From Ramen Champion x Hokkaido Paradise at Changi Airport Terminal 3; Ramen Champion had since went through a revamp where all the stalls are consolidated into two sections; one serving up the ala-carte, Ramen, Japanese Curry and Donburi items, and the other serving up sweet toasts and Kakigori.

The Houjicha Kakigori was great; the ice perfuming of a roasted tea aroma whilst containing rice cake and jelly within for a chewy texture; the cream atop providing a light hint of sweetness while soy bean powder in the middle also provides a hint of nuttiness. A small jug of Kuromitsu also comes at the side for those who wish to add a hint of sweetness to enhance the flavours of the dessert.

Whilst that is being said about the food, crowd management and service was not the best; no signages indicating to queue and order before finding a seat meant that some patrons queued while some just streamed in to find seats as though it’s a food court. And then there’s the 45min wait for our Kakigori (that’s after re-joining the ordering queue where table-less patrons were queueing in line at a queue sealed off due to the eatery reaching maximum capacity) which was a tad unforgivable especially for a bowl of ice — with no staff warning us about the wait time. Very confusing (and unnecessary) indeed.

Newly revamped Ramen Champion at Changi Airport Terminal 3 has collaborated with Hokkaido Paradise to bring you sweet treats from Hokkaido!

One of the popular items would be the Hojicha Kagigori, which is milk shavings flavoured with hojicha, and topped with sweet cream, soy bean powder and rice crispes. Kind of like your Japanese version of ice kachang that we have locally.

The hojicha flavour is strong yet subtle without overdoing it and paired with the cream which balances the dessert out.

You have an option of pouring honey over the combination or just have it in its own!

Special tonkotsu ramen ($15.80 or $10 for a student meal with less cha shu) - silky thin noodles swimming in a creamy broth (great for those who like their ramen less oily) with a gorgeous ramen egg and some of the most tender cha shu slices I've ever had. Also had the o-k okonomiyaki gyoza ($6.80) which had sweet, sour and umami flavours slightly reminiscent of that popular Osaka pancake (I personally prefer the mentaiko ones though).

Had Keishoken's Black Ramen ($12.50), which possessed delightfully smoky and garlicky flavours, and the Ajitama Ramen ($13.50 or $10 upon presentation of a student pass) - thin noodles in a rich & hearty white tonkotsu broth topped with lean pork, hijiki, a nori sheet and a lovely molten egg! The mentaiko gyoza ($6.80 for 6 pcs) was also pretty tasty.
