From Kogane Yama, a new spot for Tendon/Tempura situated beside Chir Chir at Bugis Junction. Possibly one of the most customizable spots for Tendon around, patrons are able to choose between different bowls (Prawn/Chicken/Vegetables/Mixed) with their desired base (Udon/Soba/Rice) as well as their choice of sauce (Non-Spicy/Spicy Level 1/2/3). The bowls can be ordered as a set with Chawanmushi and Miso Soup/Green Tea for an additional $2++.

The Mixed Bowl comes with quite a variety of Tempura items, including chicken, prawn, long beans, carrots, seaweed, shiso leaf, enoki mushroom, capsicum and shiitake mushroom; also opted for Spicy Level 2 for my bowl. All the Tempura items come lightly battered and crisp, drenched in the spicy Soy Tentsuya Sauce that provides quite a kick. Of particular mention would be the tender and moist chicken and the extremely crisp shiso leaf; the seaweed might be a little hard to chew apart after a while so it would probably be recommended to have it first. Quite a good bowl of Tendon; generous portions here, just make sure you have got some stomach space and an appetite for fried food before going into the situation (pretty much the same for most Tendons out there actually) to enjoy it to the fullest.
