Le Shrimp now open in Paragon (Photo: Paradise Group)
Love shrimp and Japanese ramen? You are in luck.
Paradise Group has just opened Le Shrimp in Orchard Paragon mall, Singapore’s first ever ramen concept with la mian (Chinese hand-pulled noodles) in Japanese-style ramen shrimp broth.
The concept was born after Paradise Group’s CEO visit to Japan and his dining encounter in a Hokkaido ramen bar specialising in shrimp-based broth.
Le Signature Trio Shrimp Ramen
It’s not your usual kopitiam prawn noodles, in case you are wondering. According to Le Shrimp, the broth is made from hand-grinded baked fresh large prawns simmered for more than 8 hours. Conpoy are added during the process.
The result is a thick concentrated broth of shrimp goodness.
Here’s a photo of the real thing.
Here’s the paragraph from the customer review:
Every spoonful of the soup was divine, full of ‘wok hei’ – till I could visualize the amount of prawn shells, prawn roe and prawn heads that had been fried and crushed to extract all the juices and crustacean flavours into a concentrated gravy which formed the base of the superior prawn stock. The umami broth complemented the ramen perfectly, though I think the flat rice noodles which should absorb more of the broth would taste even more scrumptious. I chose ebiko prawn ramen soup topped with shelled prawns with ebiko (S$13.90). The prawns were very fresh and the roe was a beautiful pastel orange colour, with zero hint of fishy smell and no fishy aftertaste.
Can’t wait to try it? Here’s a quick video on how to get to Le Shrimp in Paragon.
