SHINJI by Kanesaka (Carlton Hotel)~ Located at Carlton Hotel. The interior is intimate with elegance. The main sushi counter was actually singularly carved from the trunk of a 220-year-old Japanese cypress or hinoki tree. A great option for japanese food lovers and special occasions. We enjoyed all our dishes. The most memorable were the mouth-watering tuna belly sushi, uni sushi and honey dew dessert.

Ginza Tendon Itsuki at Tanjong Pagar ~ Ramen Keisuke has collaborated with highly acclaimed Ginza Itsuki Sushi restaurant in Tokyo, Japan to have Ginza Tendon Itsuki in Singapore. It is Ramen Keisuke's eighth new concept outlet. Tendon is actually a one-bowl food meal. It is popular among Japanese around the world especially during summer. It was highly recommended by my colleagues and they brought me there for an early birthday celebration. Ginza Tendon Itsuki is always very popular and there is always long queue. A Very Value for Money Delicious Tempura place. Great place to satisfy tempura craving.

Ramen Keisuke Tori King (100AM Mall at Amara Hotel) by Celebrity Chef Keisuke Takeda ~ 100AM Mall is near where I worked. Hence, often we like to drop by for lunch or dinner. A small, cozy, casual dining ramen place. Love their grilled chicken thigh as the main highlight of the Flavorful Chicken Broth Ramen.

Tiffany Cafe (Furama City Centre) ~ It was my colleague birthday celebration. My colleague suggested to try Tiffany Cafe. I have never been to Tiffany Cafe. There is also credit card promotion 1 for 1. Cool. Value for Money~ International Buffets are always great for gatherings as there will be something for everyone.

Tampopo (Liang Court) ~ A restaurant offering delicious Japanese cuisine in a contemporary way. I was having a staycation with my family at Liang Court Somerset. We were recommended by our family friend to check out Tampopo. I have tried long long ago but I can't really remember my experience. We decided to give them a try again.

Hakata Ikkousha ~ Popularly known as the Ramen Champion Winner at Bugis + in 2012 and 2013. They have 2 branches (Tanjong Pagar, Chijmes). Chijmes a lovely accessible place at City Hall but always easily forgotten by many people. I always feel it is a nice place with lovely ambience with many great food places.

Ippin Cafe Bar~ I am glad that I can made it for their invitation this round. Thank you Hazel and Ippin Cafe Bar for organising the tasting session. It is at Mohamed Sultan. One of my favourite hangout area for food especially drinks. Ippin Cafe Bar is an cosy cafe like bar which support Japanese SMEs which are interested to explore their products in South East Asian Market. I recommend Ippin Cafe Bar if you are Sake Lover.
