A little off the grid, this quiet, fresh-air restaurant overlooking the river at Kampong Bugis checks all the boxes for fantastic food, drinks, and an unpretentious ambience. This is the sort of place perfect for a girl's night out, or to impress your beautiful date. The menu is gently Japanese-influenced, with the occasional use of ingredients like miso, shiitake, and shiso. Start the evening by loading up flour chips with the Wasabi Tuna Tartare ($22), a slightly naughty rendition of the classic with the inclusion of creamy avocado, while wasabi and onion sprouts provide a spicy bite. The Cream of Ebiko Pasta ($28) is a must-order, a brilliant dish of al dente spaghetti tossed in a creamy, moreish sauce, topped with briny smelt roe and smoky grilled prawns. The Naughty Pork & Beans ($28) is an interesting one — tom yum stewed beans, grilled pork jowl glazed with a sticky sweet sauce, kale chips for crunch, and chorizo to add complexity. End your meal with the Fortune Cookie ($12), a dessert of refreshing mandarin orange sorbet, luscious yuzu mascarpone cheesecake, frozen yoghurt, finished with a fortune cookie. Take your time here, relax in its cool environment, and let the evening pass by slowly, one plate at a time.
