From Maneko Japanese Restaurant, which takes over the location of what used to be Nunsongyee at Upper Thomson Road. Pretty decent; stir-fried beef slices that were not too gamey nor chewy, savoury from the Yakiniku sauce that it was cooked with while coming with just a slight hint of truffle running at the back of the tongue that perfumes the entire dish. Caramalised onions helped to add a bit of sweetness, while Sous vide Egg was wobbly, and oozes of liquid yolk when poked with chopsticks. Thought the dish could have done with a little more contrast especially with the truffle, considering how everything felt a tad flat and lacked impact.
