Yuki Onishi, founder and head chef of the world's first Michelin-starred ramen restaurant Tsuta, has died. He was 43.

Tsuta Global announced the news on Friday , saying it was"deeply saddened" by the passing of the"meticulous and talented chef", who had helped to boost ramen's popularity across borders beyond Japan. "On behalf of the management, our thoughts are with his family, friends and staff around the world as we strive to continue his legacy," a social media post read.Born in Fujisawa city to a family of chefs, Onishi spent some time working at his father's ramen shop before leaving to pursue a high fashion career at the age of 22. His job as a merchandiser took him across the world.

That same year, Tsuta made waves in the culinary world after it became the first ramen shop to be awarded a Michelin star – an accolade it enjoyed for four straight years. Tsuta now has three restaurants in Singapore – at 313@Somerset, Jewel Changi Airport and Takashimaya shopping centre. It also has two outlets in Bangkok.
