I'm running out of adequate adjectives for this - it's that good. An umami clear broth, packed to the brim with sweet daikons, leeks, and earthy mushrooms, was the perfect complement to the oily confit of halibut. The fish was amazing, the broth stunning, there's nothing remotely worth criticising.
Behind the scene: Taking the comforting Korean Kimchi Fried Rice topped with cheese and bonito flakes. This is how we take pictures in low light environment, just flash the food with lighting.
No LED flash? Borrow a friend's handphone flash light works too. Edit picture with Snapseed app, by reducing the brightness and increasing the contrast. There you go.
Currently my favourite Don so far! Despite its slightly small portions, this is really one of the few Don that I don't mind paying for its high quality and taste. Rice was plump and sticky but without clumping in a huge lump, and the soy sauce was not only savoury but also carried an umami flavour that simply made this Don really unique from the lot I had tried. Salmon belly is flame-seared with a blowtorch; you could taste that fresh smokiness with every slurp. Mix in the potent wasabi to get a heated numbing sensation that makes you dumbfounded yet wanting for more. Despite its relatively ulu location, this would be a spot I would revisit soon due to their good food and super chill environment being a sound space and art gallery at the same time too.
