Besides pretty cakes, pastries & chocolates...I also love Japanese food!
The fatty tuna, salmon roe, those crispy ebi tempura & soft shell crabs, the wonderful tonkatsu, cold soba oh I could go on & on! But one of my favorite is Chirashi Sushi, I call it my one bowl of goodness. Everything I want is in one bowl & I love the vibrant colors...it makes me happy!
The 11 Kinds Chirashi Sushi at Tampopo Grand in Takashimaya is a bit pricey but worth your money. You'll know you are paying for quality stuff! The uni taste wonderful by the way among other things.
I also want to share this Eggplant with two kinds of Miso paste. It was the first time I had it hubby ordered it as it looks interesting. It was a bit salty for me but the miso flavors (I think its black & white miso paste) compliments the roasted eggplant, also from Tampopo Grand.
I had this bowl of Chirashi Sushi at Hoshigaoka Japanese Restaurant in Isetan Scotts. My Chirashi Sushi comes with a set of tempura, a bowl udon soup & green tea ice cream. Hubby had his favorite cold soba noodles with tempura, some sushi, miso soup & green tea ice cream. Set Lunch from $9.80++.
Here are a few places I go to whenever I get some sudden Japanese food cravings:
"Itacho Sushi" at Ion Orchard. You can also check out the one at Bugis Junction. There's a long queue most of the time but what we usually do is go there early before lunch starts or later like around 3pm.
"Tampopo Restaurant" at Liang Court. Always crowded & long queue at times. We have been here a few times & they have a wide range of Japanese favorites on their menu.
"Ramen Santouka" at The Central if you got that ramen craving. It's apparently the best ramen in Singapore. You have to go if you are a Ramen connoisseur! I will definitely blog about this one day.
"Tarafuku Japanese Buffet" is a cluster of Tampopo Group. If you are looking for quality Japanese buffet head to the Basement of 313 Somerset.
"Saboten" at Parco Marina Bay if you are craving for some good Tonkatsu. Yummy in your tummies!
"Shimbashi Soba" at Paragon when soba cravings kick in! The desserts here are pretty amazing too.
料理を楽しむ! 生を楽しむ!
Enjoy Food! Enjoy Life!
