revisit

Tucked in a cosy space in International Plaza, the space was minimalistic and inviting.

Standouts for me were;
Fatty Tuna/ Marinated Tuna 🐟
- melt in your mouth and perfectly seasoned

Chawanmushi/ Warabi mochi
- mochi present in both dishes were so incredibly soft ☁️

Each dish was explained to us as it was served, seeing the preparation before getting to eat it and it made all the difference. It was fun to chat with the friendly chef- learnt more about the different types of Omakase in SG!

Brightly-lit, airconditioned place, good for families or eating in a small group.

Pleasantly surprised by the food as I thought they had interesting layers of flavour to them, it's hard to find food that feels homey and I think they have done it well. A large variety of dishes available to choose from and of the dishes we ordered, my favourites were the hotplate tofu and preserved salted vegetables with pork.

Would come back again for dinner or grab supper:)

Came here for the lunch set! The unique flavours from fermentation/smoking were quite a fun culinary experience.

🍅 Heirloom Tomatoes
This dish unexpectedly stole the show for me, the smoked stracciatelle was addictive and the fresh mint and basil cut through the creaminess. Fresh tomatoes were so sweet, fermented tomatoes were juicy and a burst of flavour- the contrast created a wonderful combination.

🐙 Grilled Octopus
Grilled to perfection, not too tough or tender. Smoked pepper squid garum puree had an interesting flavour profile, I thought it resembled curry powder.

🍯 Honey & Yoghurt
Greek yoghurt ice cream was creamy, the flowers on top were surprisingly flavourful. Lacto fermented strawberry honey was yummy!

Dined on a friday evening, be sure to go early as the queue was long even at 8pm! Service was great:) Must orders for me were the side dishes surprisingly.

Favourites:
Prawn paste chicken (har cheong gai)
🍗 very crispy and juicy
🍗 fermented taste was more prominent than other places i have tried, quite a signature

Sharing platter (ngoh hiang)
🍥 ingredients were very fresh
🍥 my favourites were the fishcake and tofu that was juicy and soft on the inside

Prawn Noodles
🦐 the dry noodles were yummy! flavourful and aromatic sauce with pork lard added on top
🦐 broth is rich and umami but i wouldn't say traditional

Won my heart as a soup lover:) Loved the cordyceps white chicken soup most as the meat was tender and broth was slightly collagenous. Jade tofu was also a must-order for me as the tofu was soft and juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside, paired with flavourful chilli on the side.
