It's not easy getting a reservation so do call ahead at least a week or two in advance.
What attracted me the most was the free flow of soft-boiled eggs!
Hanabi – Western at Tiong Bahru Orchid Jalan Bukit Merah
A mazesoba shop from Japan has opened up at the Orchid Hotel in Tanjong Pagar, right next door to Keisuke's sake bar and two doors down from Sakari (1 Tras Link #01-07). It tasted like it looks: tasty and punchy without being excessive, even though one could spike it with vinegar or chili oil afterwards. Next time I'll need to remember to double my noodle size as I could have easily eaten more today.
Omakase! Indeed a good experience with their premium ingredients and creativity in food. Recommend for special occasion.
All in all, the food quality standard is there and definitely worth the money spent, not to mention the creativity and efforts put in by the kitchen staff.
For the good value of the omakase, yes. While the seat is not very comfortable, the overall experience is still quite positive for me and I hope to be back again.
There were two specials today, one of which featured crab and uni. But it was the second one that sounded more interesting to me, as it featured not just scallop sashimi as well as those sauteed scallops on the left.
It sounds like a lot of food but by the end of the meal, we were comfortably full and on a post-sushi high.
We find the differentiation of spiciness in the 3 level at Fujiyama Dragon Curry House to be extremely marginal. The difference is mainly in the sweetness which was absent in the spicy option. The rest is very much depending on your preference for the toppings.
The curry was little savoury and a little sweet, filled with minced pork and topped an onsen tamago. In the end, the chilli powder helped a little.
