Les Amis Group is opening a new no pork, no lard eatery.
The homegrown F&B company behind brands like three Michelin-starred restaurant Les Amis, Peperoni Pizzeria and tart specialist Tarte by Cheryl Koh will launch a new “fast-casual Japanese concept” on Oct 1, 2024, at Shaw Centre.
Called Torijin (tori is the Japanese word for ‘chicken’), the 40-seater offers donburi, ramen and chicken-centric side dishes. It takes over the former space for the group's tempura donburi brand Tenjin, which has moved to the first floor of the mall.

What to expect
The dishes were conceptualised by Japanese chef Kawasaki Shimpei, who is the executive chef of Les Amis Group’s two other Japanese concepts, Tenjin and Sushi Jin.
The ramen at Torijin come with several house-made broth options, including Tori Shoyu and Shio Yuzu, simmered with more flavourful mature hens, Hokkaido rishiri kombu, ginger and leeks. There’s also a creamy chicken paitan broth, cooked with root veggies and mushrooms.

Prices are kept wallet-friendly here. Signature ramen picks are below $15 a bowl, like Tori Shoyu ($12.80), Shio Yuzu ($13.80) and Paitan ($14.80). Each bowl comes with thin Hakata-style noodles, house-made chicken chashu, menma (Japanese bamboo shoots), runny-yolked aji tamago and nori sheets.
Customers can opt for add-on toppings for their ramen, like Sweet Corn and Torched Mozzarella ($2 a portion).
