It is a pretty bowl, but still lacking in flavour. Could use more seasoning or a sauce to unify the ingredients. The beef was a little lacklustre, the taste and mouth feel did not resemble that of Wagyu (more like flank or striploin), and it was a little lean.

The noodles - a textural sensation, a very nice chew. They also make an excellent chilli sauce (with real heat) which blends very well with the thick dark soy sauce. All other ingredients (mince meat, fish slices, shallots, vegetables, and ikan bilis) on this dish plays a supporting role, the noodle is really the star of the show.
The soup version did not really hit the spot for me. The dry version, on the other hand, is fantastic.

Perfectly cooked Orecchiete pasta by @ioosteria
The Orecchiete pasta was cooked al-dente, with a wonderful bite, it was fun to chew on every bit of pasta! A very tasty, comforting dish.

Ryo Sushi offers a well constructed Omakase menu at a very reasonable price.
🔸
The 15-Course Omakase Menu (SGD 68) offered Hijiki Seaweed Salad, Edamame, Truffled Onsen Egg, 12 pieces of Assorted Premium Sushi, Hand Roll, Small Chirashi Bowl, and a refreshing bowl of soup.
🔸
The seafood was very fresh, as expected. The texture and vinegar balance of the sushi rice was very good (one of the best I've had in Singapore).
🔸
They also serve Aburi sushi (flamed/blow-torched), which is a part of their 12-piece sushi presentation. The notable ones were the Kinmedai (splendid alfonsino) and the Hotate (scallop) sushi, prepared Aburi style.
🔸
Well done @ryosushisg, will come again!
Highlights:
- Truffled Onsen Egg - The brine from the Ikura (salmon roe) with the creaminess of warm yolk was a great combination.
- Chūtoro (中とろ) - Medium Fatty Tuna with Shoyu (soy sauce) Foam. The subtle saltiness of the soy sauce foam enhanced the fatty-ness and flavour of the tuna. - (Photo: Chūtoro (中とろ) - Medium Fatty Tuna with Soy Sauce Foam)
