Lunch Set
🤍𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐢 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐢 𝐉𝐲𝐨 𝐒𝐞𝐧 ($35)- 7 types of Sushi 🍣 & 1 Sushi roll! Enjoyed this set and really love their tamgo sushi!
⁣
Ended the meal with a hot cup of hojicha that totally helps to cleanse our palate & allowing us to enjoy the yummy coffee jelly dessert & ice cream, which came with a candle for a birthday celeb! 🥳 ⁣

🤍𝐌𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢 ($42)- Sushi rice topped with mixed sashimi cubes. I truly enjoyed every mouthful of sashimi in this bowl! They were super fresh & I just can’t get enough of the uni, scallops & salmon belly🤤 u see me so focused while eating, digging & digging for more😝⁣

Highlight of the evening has got to be the 𝐄𝐛𝐢 𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐨 🍤 🥪- its so yummy!!! Look at that ultra thick ebi katsu 100% handmade using Black Tiger Prawns🤩 Sandwiched between two slices of Hokkaido milk toast & eaten together with the homemade tartar sauce, it was so homely & good💕 Reminded me of a home-made sandwich dish that I had during a farm visit in Hokkaido🇯🇵⁣
⁣
Oh yes, & special mention to 2 of their izakaya sides- 𝐒𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐫𝐚 𝐄𝐛𝐢 𝐊𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐞 & 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐚𝐠𝐞, they are the best sides to pair with the mains or a good drink 🍻⁣

This new Japanese Ramen Bar & Cafe features authentic Hokkaido style ramen & Japanese sandwiches 🍜 🥪 & i really like the cosy space☺️⁣

Shrimp+ Tonkotsu Ramen lovers, you are in for a treat as their ramen broth uses a combination of both Pork bone & Ebi boiled for hours to give its unique taste! Here’s what we tried: ⁣
⁣
𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐓𝐨𝐤𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐢 𝐒𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐨 𝐄𝐛𝐢 𝐓𝐨𝐧𝐤𝐨𝐭𝐬𝐮 𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧- Served with 2 tiger prawns 🦐 & sakura ebi tempura flakes, I like it that the prawn broth was distinct but not too strong & could still bring out the flavour of the tonkotsu base. They have a non-spicy option but the spicy option worked well for me by adding that layer of shiokness😆⁣
⁣
𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐤𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐨 𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧- tasted as its named, it’s spicy🌶 I like it that the aromatic black garlic oil flavour oozes out 1st before the spiciness comes as an aftertaste! Try it if u r up for a hot experience😬⁣
⁣
𝐓𝐨𝐤𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐢 𝐇𝐨𝐤𝐤𝐚𝐢𝐝𝐨 𝐓𝐨𝐧𝐤𝐨𝐭𝐬𝐮 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐨 𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧- never a fan of miso ramen even during my stay in Japan, but i like the use of sweet corn in their rendition, making the soup base really fragrant😗⁣

Didn’t have to wait too long when we arrived 15mins before its opening & could enter as the first batch of customers on a Friday🎉
⁣
Got a chance to take the counter seats & witness the live grilling👨🏼‍🍳 definitely not for the faint-hearted, for even I can’t take staring at the raw & slightly bloody eels for too long😱Could only raise my head up and take a proper snap when the chef posed with the cooked fish! ✌🏻⁣

Being the recipient of the Michelin Bib Gourmand 2019 & having such highly raved reviews, I had quite high expectations of it. Overall, I must say its still a nice bowl to satisfy my craving after so long☺️
⁣
Heard that their wasabi is freshly grated and I can stand by it, because I really think their wasabi is one of the best in all the Jap restaurants here. Not too pungent but delicate enough to spice up the dish🍱 ⁣
⁣
As for the unagi itself, I am not sure if it was just my serving, but the outside tasted more sticky than how it is supposed to be crispy😶 Not sure if it was because they spread too much of the dark sauce. I was also hoping that they can slice it thicker, so that you can taste the succulent meat more distinctly! Apart from that, they are still highly addictive, & that’s when u always wish there’s more fish than rice in such a dish💕⁣

Price: $35 per serving
