Ichiran Ramen’s First S’pore Pop-Up: Nice Or Not?

It's only the instant noodle version, but we try it and find out anyway.

Ichiran Ramen’s First S’pore Pop-Up: Nice Or Not?

The Internet almost broke when it was announced that famed Fukuoka ramen chain Ichiran is coming to Singapore — albeit as a pop-up booth at Takashimaya’s Japan Food Matsuri fair from October 3 to 20. And only the New York Limited instant version of Ichiran’s famed rich tonkotsu ramen, which one can buy by the box at its outlets including the one in New York, will be served here. 700 bowls are available daily.

Ichiran’s PR rep cites logistical challenges in importing the ramen ingredients — like fresh noodles and the cha shu used at the Japanese branches — as the reason why the popular ramen giant could only offer its instant ramen in Singapore. And until the ingredient supply issue is resolved, don’t hold your breath for an Ichiran outlet opening here anytime soon.

Can you really sleep anywhere at Changi Airport? A recent photo showing several people sleeping on the floor at Changi Airport sparked discussion online, with many wondering whether it’s actually allowed. So we asked Changi Airport directly. According to Changi Airport Group, passengers may rest or sleep at the airport, but they should do so in designated rest areas and seating zones, and in a way that does not obstruct walkways, public spaces, airport operations or the movement of other travellers. Airport staff may approach passengers and ask them to move if they’re creating an obstruction or safety concern. Changi Airport also offers designated Snooze Lounges in the transit area and transit hotels for passengers with long layovers looking for a more comfortable overnight stay. Here’s what you need to know before planning to catch some sleep at one of the world’s busiest airports ✈️ #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #Singapore #ChangiAirport #Travel

Remember when Singapore flags seemed to fill almost every HDB block in the lead-up to National Day? A recent social media post showing an HDB estate with almost no Singapore flags on display got people wondering if hanging the national flag has become a fading tradition. Curious, we decided to check a few HDB blocks ourselves. In some of the estate we visited, we could count the number of Singapore flags hung per block on one hand. Of course, displaying the Singapore flag has always been voluntary, and our observations aren’t representative of every neighbourhood in Singapore. But it does raise an interesting question: are fewer Singaporeans choosing to put up the flag today, or does it simply feel that way? With National Day approaching and Singapore celebrating SG60, we explore why the simple act of hanging the national flag still sparks conversation. What does your HDB block look like this year? Are your neighbours flying the Singapore flag, or has this National Day tradition quietly changed over time? #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #NationalDay2026 #NDP #SingaporeFlag
