Founder's Profile
TAMPOPO is helmed by Managing Director of Creative Food Concept, Mr. Takaaki Takagi who has extensive experience in the food business for over 30 years. Committed to spreading the knowledge of Japanese food, he also acted as adviser to several local and foreign organisations to share the goodness of Japanese cuisine and fresh produce from Japan.
During the Japanese food boom in Singapore, he successfully pushed the boundaries and introduced Kurobuta, Ramen and Japanese Confectionery into Singapore’s F&B market, which brought about a significant impact to the F&B industry.
Today, he continues to create new dishes to cater to the taste buds of both locals and Japanese residing in Singapore. One of his greatest masterpiece in the past decade is the Collagen Rich Chicken Pai Tan Ramen that keeps our loyal customers coming back for more!

Testimonials
The surface of the choux pastry was covered in a cookie crust, making the cream puff taste fragrant and extra aromatic. The cream filling was smooth with a strong whiff of vanilla permeating throughout the entire dessert.
