Akimitsu (Changi City Point)

From Akimitsu
2 pieces crispy prawn tempura, savoury beef sukiya & 2 pieces fried chicken with tartar sauce over fluffy Japanese rice.
Satisfying experience.

Satisfying portion of sliced pork belly with onion, onsen egg & pickled ginger.
Went with bowl of miso soup & chawanmushi.
Highly recommended!

Decided to head for some tendon because of post Japan blue. Headed to Akimitsu and ordered their Signature Bowl but the taste was far from (Japan food dining) expectation.

Batter has an oily after taste. Mr. said good was general okay, maybe I was expecting too much. 😪

This features a base of sticky fluffy white rice.
.
Topped with shreds of thin chewy pork belly shogayaki, which consists of pork belly and white onions marinated in light soy sauce, mirin rice wine, and ginger. This has a robust savoury salty sweet herbal flavour.
.
Completed with 2 large pieces of tempura ebi / prawn / shrimp, with has a light crispy batter and a burst of juicy sweet savoury flavour.

Established by Chef Tanihara Akimitsu in Asakusa, Taito, Tokyo, Akimitsu Shitamachi Tendon or Akimitsu is a reowned tempura donburi / tendon / tempura rice bowl restaurant.
.
Their signature family recipe for tempura which stretches back over 130 years to the Edo era of the Samurai (since 1889).
.
This is a heaping helping of ingredients, where the ratio of sticky fluffy white rice is overwhelmed by the generosity of tempura.
.
There's 10 different ingredients (with 12 pieces), all coated in their house light crispy tempura batter, which isn't overly greasy.
.
I chose the original sauce for this, and it was delicious.
