[DestinyFate]

As topic above..hmm de only jap restaurant i went is always sakae or suki sushi..any others to recommend?thanks

[Assenkay]

Depends on what type you are looking for...

Ramen u can go to the ramen thread. There's a whole list there.

Waraku at Marina Square I heard is not bad

[alanchia67]

i've always liked waraku at east coast - very authentic. thus i belief other waraku couldnt be bad (although i've not tried them yet).

i dont like sakae sushi, somehow.

[info_guy]

Millenia walk - Rakuzen, very nice atmosphere, average to good food, expensive

Cuppage - A few nice ramen shops

Katong - Waraku

[foreverluv]

Can try sushi tei?

How's the pricing at waraku?

[Assenkay]

[LiquidShaDow]

Tried Akashi (http://smallpotatoesmakethesteaklookbigger.blogspot.com/2006/11/akashi-paragon.html), Aoki (http://smallpotatoesmakethesteaklookbigger.blogspot.com/2007/01/aoki-shaw-centre.html) or Sushi (http://smallpotatoesmakethesteaklookbigger.blogspot.com/2007/11/return-to-yoshida.html) Yoshida (http://smallpotatoesmakethesteaklookbigger.blogspot.com/2007/09/lunch-sushi.html)?

[camemberu]

Tatsuya is pretty good too. Go for the lunch sets (S$26++) as dinner can get expensive.

[duckie85]

I tried the outlet at marina square, not really fantastic.
Maybe i didnt ordered the correct food.

[vurtomatic]

Second Akashi and recommend Sun and Moon.

[durain]

WARAKU RINDO SET MEAL.....the best cold noodle meal in town....very very worth your money. The Tempura there is best

nod nod .. Waraku is not bad..

[grunt]

I am not sure if there is Sushi Tei in town but its also worth a mention. Can fight with Waraku and def way better than Sakae.

[camemberu]

Never liked Waraku. Once I had a sashimi salad where the maguro was greyish and fishy (ikura also smelly); yakitori that came cold; and ramen that just simply was a waste of noodles. Maybe I ordered wrong stuff?

[jarvis]

i agree that Tatsuya is very good... the set lunches are value for money and the ala carte can be damn expensive...

Other nice jap places would be Kazu Sumiyaki (yakitori place)... also not exactly cheap.

[snap99]

Nirai-Kanai okinawa rest. at tanglin shopping centre.

[Sauron]

just went for dinner at tatsuya 2 weeks ago. the sushi and sashimi are sublime but you really do pay for it.

[bartleby]

I am not sure if there is Sushi Tei in town but its also worth a mention. Can fight with Waraku and def way better than Sakae.
Here's the list of Sushi Tei's outlets:

China Square Central
Holland Village
Ngee Ann City
Paragon
Raffles City Shopping Centre
Serangoon Gardens
VivoCity

[sinequanon88]

if cost is not a problem

Aoki by Kunio Aoki (under Les Amis group)
set lunches are from 30++ to 60++
lunch omakase is 100++

dinner sets are from 40++ (basic 7 piece sushi) to 75++ (nine piece sushi) to 165 for dinner omakase and around 250-300++ for chef omakase

[DestinyFate]

hmm roughly 30+ per pax..any recommendation for dinner??sushi tei? or Waraku??seems like got a few dun like waraku?haa

[dreamzzit]

u can try minori at UE square near clarke quay mrt.
its a buffet around 35 bucks.
the food quality and spread is one notch above sakae.

i would highly recommend this place as its value for money.

[dreamzzit]

another highly recommendable buffet style would be at sushi kikuzawa.
price around the same as minori.

enjoy.

one notch above sakae means nowhere still leh.

[dreamzzit]

tsk tsk.
then where would you recommend?

[sleepnsleep2003]

Ichiban Boshi Suntec and Great World City outlets are the only ones I have been to. Found out menu at Ichiban Boshi (not comparing with Ichiban Sushi) for different outlets have slight difference.

Price reasonable, food and service quite good. I like their Lobster Sushi and Dobinmoshi. Others like Teriyaki Chicken Don also good.

[hexsox]

Akira Japanese Restaurant located on Emerald Hill Road. Serves excellent Japanese dishes at extremely affordable rates.

[hopesalive]

Anyone know where can I find this kind http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/3887/254378740962f53913f3uk2.th.jpg (http://img233.imageshack.us/my.php?image=254378740962f53913f3uk2.jpg)

of Japanese grilled style shop (where you grill the raw meat by yourself), be it in town area or not. This should be buffet style right?

[Hippo_dance]

ah... which one offer membership card o0

[erictan1234]

i last night try one at the parkway parade basement.... think call the fish market or what...
at the corner there one... the sashimi very fresh...

[info_guy]

Gyukaku at chijmes

[OnlyHuman]

Those ppl who wants to eat authentic okonomiyaki & monjya yaki can go to nanjya monjya @ Waterfront plaza.. this is the link http://www.nanjya-monjya.com/

For those ppl who wants to try out Japanese stype of Western Cuisine can go to Ma Maison. There are 2 branches in Singapore. In Bugis Junction & The Central (Clarke Quay Mrt)

And lastly for ra-men lovers, you guys can go to miharu (at gallery hotel). Its a rather small japanese ramen shop but its very authentic :)

Hope these helps :)

WARAKU RINDO SET MEAL.....the best cold noodle meal in town....very very worth your money. The Tempura there is best
hoho rindo is the best lol...

i like their pork...

beri soft and juicy...

but the waraku outlet at east coast damn bloody noisy...

the wait staff shouting around...

[applefreak]

waraku cannot make it
last visit to the cuppage branch resulted in me spending a public holiday at the A&E - food poisoning
honestly i find that waraku sells food catered to singapore taste buds

for ma maison, the bugis outlet is nicer
for sun moon, the wheelock outlet is nicer
both also taste-wise, so far no bad experience with their service

TS, it really depends on your budget
if you want authentic jap food and ultra fresh ingredients
be prepared to pay more

How about Tetsu (http://www.hisfoodblog.com/2008/05/tetsu-live-kushi-style-restaurant.html) - authentic Kushi-style Tempura along with Tonkatsu menu, prepared “LIVE” before your eyes by the chef?

You can get the set @ $35+++ - everything is fried and served on the spot, so you do not get the oily aftertaste.

That Japanese Restaurant chef that cooked for MM Lee and his family that one quite good. Santaro i think is his name. Heard good things abt him. Anyone know where's his restaurant?

[addict951]

why are yall so reluctant to talk about Sushi Tei here?
I find it good leh. I'm a big fan of sushi tei. Prices are reasonable and many notches above suckae sush|t and that ichiban rubbish

I also find sushi tei to be far superior than Hanabi bukit timah

Sushi from sushi tei, sakae sushi, ichiban sushi definetely cannot make it. Just puttting fish on top of cold rice is just not sushi.

[Beta_Tester]

this?

http://skinny-epicurean.blogspot.com/2007/11/santaro-japanese-restaurant.html

yeah.. :) :D=:p

[ikileo]

Waraku is good for those on a budget as they have pretty good value, but don't expect ultra fancy stuff. I have to give and 'A' to Waraku for expanding their menu and adding some originality in their selection.

But personally, being a raw fish person who cannot afford places like tatsuya yet, usually frequent Akashi at tanglin shopping centre outlet and Kuriya at the Shaw location. I have a personal dislike for local conveyor belt and local japanese buffets.

[sorryguy]

Sakuraya at Anchorpoint is very fresh and good

[Cashcow]

EDMW got this Kuishin Bo outing. After I go, den tell chiu the reviews.

[Beta_Tester]

Go Kuriya @ Raffles City. Wont go wrong. :)

[erwinrommel]

Need anyone mention Honjin (at Tanjong Pagar area)? :D

Other than the salmon belly sashimi, Honjin is also famous for their long tempura prawn. But then the chawanmushi not very nice though.
