Fusion

Never really noticed this place even though i frequent Novena a lot. Saw it on Burpple and decided to give it a try! The dishes here are kinda like a fusion of Japanese / peranakan / local flavours. Some really unique dishes and kudos to the chefs for their ideas. The Unagi Garlic Fried Rice was my favourite after trying several. The rice had this nice wok-hei aroma to it and is very flavourful. For those who really like their garlic strong, this might disappoint you a little because its garlicness is more on the subtle side. But for me, its just right. The unagi on top is a big plus too because it is really soft. As a unagi fan, i have tried unagi at many different stores. And this one still stood out amongst some for its tenderness and lack of bones. For those who avoid unagi becsuse of the little bones, rest assured that you wont find any in this. The only disappointing bit is the size, like some reviewers have mentioned. I would say for the size, i would have expected the price to be $13 to $15, and its current pricing is rather expensive. There is a 1 for 1 promo ongoing so be sure to check that out or use burpple 1 for 1!
