The omakase dinner was made up of 8 courses- appetizer, starter, sashimi, seasonal item, steamed, sushi, soup and dessert. The idea is to let Chef Lawrence know your budget and taste preferences so that he can tailor a menu just for you.

First, lets start of with a Tomato from the Ehime region of Japan, reputed for its freshness and sweetness.

Followed by the appetizers- Deep-fried Ebi with wasabi mayo and Uni Yofu, daintily presented in a birdcage-liked holder.

Toro Tataki for starter, lightly seared for a hint of smokiness. The rich tuna belly with a hint of sirlon feling while the topping of miso accentuated the sweetness of the meat

Chef's Seasonal Selection followed after with some Herring Fish Roe, Hamachi and Baby Abalone.

Follow by Squid with Roe as main course. Its tender but firm flesh and soft creamy thick roe. Stewed in homemade sauce, the richness was intensified and overall, very enjoyable.

As for sushi, an Assorted Platter of Nigiri Sushi is served. Made up of Hamachi, Sea Eel, Flounder Fin, Scallop and Uni, with the latter won the most praises as it was directly imported from hokkaido- a specific class that is recognized as a delicacy and luxury ingredient.

No, this is not Whisky, its Tuna consommé even though served in a shot glass. The broth is in fact a brew of tuna stock, leek, carrots and seasonal vegetables that has been simmering for 4 hours. Bottoms up!

And lastly, ice-cream trio of classically Japanese flavours- Matcha, Yuzu and Kurogoma as dessert!
