They may be intimidating for many with the slimey texture and sharp flavour, but personally find this super addictive especially when eaten with rice. Another awesome izakaya feast 💕
Hankering for a late night treat? Head to Dosukoi, a no frills izakaya that serves authentic yet affordable dishes all through the night. Like Keria Japanese Restaurant that is located just a few doors down, you won't find any Singaporeans here — only Japanese salarymen converging at the counter for a drink or two. The menu is predominantly in Japanese characters with a loose English translation, so it's best if you can come here with a Japanese friend in tow. Start with the Tako Wasabi ($6), an appetizer that is a Japanese favourite. For those unaccustomed to eating raw bite-sized pieces of octopus mixed with soy sauce and freshly grated wasabi, it's a must-try delicacy that goes well with cold beer. Look out for other yummy bites, like the Mentaiko Ika ($8), raw squid served with a generous portion of mentaiko and the Buta no Kakuni ($12) — braised pork belly that is so tender to the touch, served with an egg on the side.
Avg price: $40 per person with drinks
