Yonehachi (Ngee Ann City)

Reviewed this before, and while it’s still nice and I like it, I have come to realise that the chestnuts probably have sugar added to them which is why it’s quite sweet! And not a natural sweetness as I had previously thought.

The glutinous rice has a briny flavour from the seaweed, was quite yummy! The scallops are surprisingly good in terms of texture & taste, maybe because I didn’t expect much. It was cooked quite nicely (not overcooked / mushy)! The edamame gives some additional flavour.

Salmon okowa, light and savory rice with salmon bits.

Chestnut okowa, the rice is quite light with sweet chestnuts.

The glutinous rice is good! Even nicer when you sprinkle the sesame seeds which act as the seasoning (it’s salty). I enjoyed the chestnuts, which was delish!! The sweetness of the chestnut added additional flavour :)

My friend introduced me to this stall that sells Japanese Glutinous Rice.

It is a cheap, light and healthy meal which is good if you are watching what you eat. However, big eater or people who likes lots of flavour should not try this as it will not satisfy their taste bud.
