Salmon sushi (4 flavours)

We love all their dishes, first dish sashimi is very fresh, beef and pork all very nice, taste different from outside as they are higher grade pork and beef, tempura prawn just nice, cod fish very fresh, we love it very much, seafood ramen got a lot of ingredients, soup base special, salmon sushi is full of surprises, different flavours, we love it so much, ice cream is also very freshly made,very refreshing, we are glad the chef customized to let us try a bit of everything, and the price is cheap compared to outside with so fresh ingredients, thanks to the free coupons I won from openrice too that I get to try this restaurant, for the extra amount I paid for, I feel that I won't have to fly to Japan to eat, this restaurant food is superb with very cosy environment, chef got the passion to prepare nice food and the nice hospitality, we feel happy eating there, we would like to go back if got the chance.

In Japanese, Fuku means Happiness while ya refers to House, and when directly translated Fukuya simply means Happiness House. This happiness house silently reside in Jurong Country Club. I would never had expected good food to be inside a Country Club since I stereotyped it as where the rich golfers will go until I personally tried the food there myself. It's like a hidden gems waiting to be discovered by food lovers.

Fukuya offers a wide variety of options for those craving authentic Japanese cuisine in utterly perfect presentation. The dishes served are photo-worthy as it's often decorated with flowers or edible garnishes on exquisite dining wares. Jap-food lover you just had to add this one in your 'to-eat-list'.

It's best to start off with Zensai, another term for Appetizer
Seafood Mayo on Fresh Salad - $10.80

Mixture of two types of seaweed, the green and brown one which I hardly see it in the market (probably just me), topped with my favourite seafood mayo~ The seaweed is really salty but crunchy if you tried eating it separately. However, once combined with the seafood mayo, you won't really feel that it's overpowering, instead it brings out an unique taste to the dish.

Teapot Soup
I had never tried something like this before, and it's quite a cool concept of having your soup served. It's sweet and refreshing. Ingredients looks simple, mainly consisted of mushrooms and oysters, but brought out the best of out it. Two ways to savour this, by adding the lime or skipping it. I tried both methods and preferred having my soup without lime.

Fukuya Tokusen Platter (7 kinds)
Toro, Uni, Botan Ebi, Salmon Belly, Katsuo Tataki, Shima Aji and Tai
Not a fan of raw food, and my favourite food in a sushi bar is all the cooked food like crab-sticks, unagi and stuffs, but decided to give it a chance and I'm glad I did. All their sashimi are super fresh as it's all imported from Japan. It brings out the true definition of 'fresh saltwater' because you literally can taste it. It's worth every cent in your pocket, and everyone is all like I am going to come back to get this after they get their bonus.

Gintara Mentaiyaki (All time favourite)
It's the store's all time favourite, and no doubt mine as well. Grilled fish with mentaiyaki on banana leaf. Their mentaiyaki is thick and creamy and the banana leaf underneath gave it a little burnt feeling which enhance the taste and smell even better like how food being cooked under charcoal flames.
Absolutely a must-try vote from me.

Salmon, Anugu, Akami, Buri Belly, Unkun Uni & Ikura Topping
Everyone there was trying to convince me it wasn't spicy and stuffs, and I did finish all the sushi that are sadly all coated with wasabi except the unkun uni(sea urchin) one, by gulping water. I have to say that they are using authentic wasabi as it's not spicy and does not sting the eyes, it's just that the smell of wasabi that I disliked about. Nevertheless, the dish is much raved about and each sushi has its individual sauce and there is no need for soy sauce. I guess it's bad luck I couldn't enjoy this pretty much.

Fukuya Seafood Ramen (Small)
This bowl of awesomeness is called small, and I think it takes two to finished it. Now I cannot imagine how many could their 'big' portion feeds. Do not be fooled by the colour of the ramen, it's not spicy at all, and surprisingly it's sweet. Vegetables, seafood are all tossed inside to create this sweet yet rich flavouring pumpkin-taste-alike soup. As you can see, the ingredients are super fresh and generously spread around the chewy noodles.

Japanese Grape Flavour with Boiled Chestnuts
As usual, something I have been waiting for since the start because I am a sucker for desserts and I love KYOHO GRAPES. The sweetness is just right for me and it is as smooth as Gelato, while the chestnut adds texture to the smooth ice-cream. It's a unique combination as I have never expected chestnuts to go well with grapes but it did.

I had a great yet different kind of experience there, and I believe you guys should try it too. It's always more difficult to find places with good food and good services. If you happened to be hanging around Singapore Science Centre or Jurong Country Club drop by and enjoy a feast of authentic Jap food.

Fukuya, a new Japanese restaurant in the JCC! It is located behind Science Centre. Once you enter JCC, you need to walk towards the Recreation Complex deep inside. Fukuya is right next to the swimming pool!

The restaurant interior is quite big and doesn't feel cramped even though there are lotsa tables and chairs.

We were seated in the VIP room! 11 seats for us and our guests for this food tasting session! Tasteful black and gold pictures adorn the room and the restaurant with traditional Japanese sake on the floor!

Each and every one of us were served a 7-course meal!! OMG!! Let's walk you through!!

Zensai, means Appetiser. $10.80.

It's got green and brown seaweed and a piece of lettuce at the bottom. The top is the star of this dish. It's seafood mayo! The crunchy fish roe adds dimension to this dish! The trick to eat this is to eat it whole (because the green seaweed is extremely salty when eaten alone) if the size of your mouth allows. All the tastes — salty, sweetness and sourness — dance harmoniously on your tongue at the same time! It's truly flavourful — I now finally fully understand the meaning of this word!!

Sashimi! Fukuya Tokusen (specially selected) Platter. $68.80.

I don't eat raw fish but I decided to just try them all since it's a food tasting session! So it's my first time eating so many raw fish in a sitting!  

Halibut fin muscle (best!), salmon, toro, giant prawn, tai, Shima Aji, and others that I dunno!

Very fresh!! Real taste of sea..food! It's because the chef flew them in from Japan! He told us that quality is of his utmost concern!

Dobin Mushi! Soup in a teapot! $10.80.

The ingredients are not fancy but you get one big fat oyster! Two pieces of different mushrooms, bamboo shoots, big spring onions, etc~

Really super nice!! Drink it without lime first~ Savour the original sweetness the juicy oyster and mushroom brings out in the soup! Then maybe add lime to one spoonful of soup for your next mouthful! Try the difference! Don't put the lime into the teapot though, I've heard the other food tasters regretting about that, lol~ Luckily I didn't XD

Modern Fukuya Aburi Sushi Mori — where each sushi has their own sauce/taste, so no soya sauce is required. $28.80.

Yummy yummy off-the-menu nigiri sushi!! XD

Though I was afraid, I've always wanted to try Uni!! It's SUPER CREAMY!! Thick texture but the taste is just the very fresh taste! Wow~!! Plus the crunch of the big fish roes on top! Yummy!

All of the nigiri except for the Uni has wasabi and I don't like wasabi but the wasabi here is mild! Your eyes will be safe from tears, don't worry!

Some of them are lightly cooked on the surface, very nice!!

Seafood Ramen. $26.80.

Now...... The ramen with the underrated name! The chef didn't reveal how he made the soup until we've tasted it!! It's actually really sweet despite its spicy-looking colour! Vegetables and tonnes of other stuff blended together and boiled into soup! OMG!! Heavenly sweetness! Super nice and healthy! So nutritious!!

The noodles are cooked just nice and do not stick to your teeth nor each other! The ingredients are aplenty! Prawns, clam, hotate, cabbage, squid, crabmeat, Japanese fish cake (lightly charred on the pink surface!), and many more! Generous servings for each of us really shows a lot of the chef's sincerity in giving customers his best!!

Kyoho (slip-skin grapes first produced in Shizuoka, Japan in 1937) Ice Cream with Kuri Kanroni (boiled chestnut). $8.80.

Last but not least, DESSERT!!

OMG~~ It's so sweet and smooth and creamy and delicious!! Mix your mouthful with the boiled chestnut and cream at the bottom and savour this new sensation! Really great match!! The kuri has its own kind of sweetness and it does not clash with the kyoho grapes taste, they embrace each other~!

I looove this dessert!!

Favourites: Starter, Gintara Mentaiyaki, Ramen and Kyoho Ice-cream. I can't just pick one! XD

So if you are visiting the nearby JEM or J-Cube or Science Centre, come here to chat with Chef Ah Beng!! He will make good food for you!!

this is also one of my fav dish of the night. the wasabi is very light and not "over" so it doesn't cover the freshness of the sushi taste. the slightly grilled sushi is very well done for it still maintain the "raw" when it is in the semi cooked state so it doesnt lose the "fresh" taste

the broth is specially created by Chef Ming. It is a combination of Japanese and western soup. at first i thought it is a lobster soup but actually it is more of vege base soup lol. the ramen is topped with lots of seafood like prawn and scallop.

last but not list, the "da boom" of the night will go to Kyoho Ice Cream (Japanese Grape Flavour) with Kuri Kanronni (Boiled Chestnut) ($8.80)

Our first dish was a delightful little appetizer - Seafood Mayo on Fresh Salad ($10.80). This little bite packs a punch! The seafood is a mixture of many types of shellfish and other seafood blended together into one savory mouthful. The salad is some kind of seaweed type of vegetable which is chewy and really adds another dimension to this dish. However the one drawback is that it is a little too salty. Lower the saltiness and this will be a winning appetizer.

Oh My God! This is one VERY DELICIOUS plate of sashimi. It is the Fukuya Tokusen Platter ($68.80) and it consists of 7 types of sashimi. They are simple divine! I was closing my eyes and savoring every bite. The fish was so fresh and some were fatty and just melts in your mouth. You're left craving for more once you finish a slice. The 7 types of sashimi are Toro (fatty part of a tuna), Uni (sea urchin), Botan Ebi (prawn), Salmon Belly, Katsuo Tataki (the dark red fish), Shima Aji and Tai. I'm not too sure what the last 2 are. I think one of them is the fin muscle of the Halibut fish and that was one of the best of the lot! Lightly seared so you get that bit of smokey tang and the rest was greasy fatty goodness. The salmon belly and toro were super delicious as well! I could go on and on about this platter and even though it is pricy, the sashimi are flown in from Japan so you really pay for the quality of the seafood.

One thing to note: The chef's soya sauce is specially prepared. He said that he made it less salty with seaweed (no idea how he did that) so it doesn't taste as sharp and strong as the usual soya sauce which I find that it is indeed true! These little touches added to the overall food experience which I greatly appreciate.

This is the Dobin Mushi ($10.80) also known as Teapot Soup. Basically the chef boiled the soup with Oysters (YES Oysters!), mushroom and other ingredients into a sweet and light broth which is served in this cute teapot. You pour out the soup into a small teacup and drink it from there. For this, go easy on the lime. Usually you'll squeeze that piece of lime given into the soup to add some zest but I squeezed too much and it overpowers some of the natural sweetness of the oysters. Just a couple of drops is more than enough.

This is the Gintara Mentaiyaki ($20.80) which is grilled gintara fish with the mentaiko cheese on top. The fish is moist and the taste of the mentaiko doesn't overpower it. I can still taste the freshness of the fish and I enjoyed it to the last bite! The patch of salad at the side...skip it. It had a very pungent taste which shocked me when I took a bite of it.

Next was the Fukuya Aburi Sushi Mori ($28.80) which consists of Salmon, Anago (salt-water eel), Akami (I think this is tuna), Buri Belly (Yellowtail belly) and Unkun Uni & Ikura topping (the sea urchin sushi). I like the yellowtail belly best as it was super premium and fatty! I could go for another 3 more of it. All the sushi had its own sauce or seasoning so we were advised not to dip into the soya sauce so as to savour the sushi as it was meant to be eaten.

This is the Fukuya Seafood Ramen ($26.80) and is the small version. Yes, this bowl which looks huge to me is small
. They are super generous with the ingredients. There are prawns, clams, squid and many other goodies in this bowl. The soup is light and tastes a little like pumpkin broth but I was told that it was mainly a vegetable broth. Definitely a bowl to be shared if you want to sample the other awesome items on the menu as it is very filling.

To end the (super satisfying) meal, we had the Kyoho Ice Cream (Japanese grape flavour) with boiled chestnut ($8.80). This reminded me of my childhood where we sometimes had grape flavour candy and it certainly tasted like that! The ice cream sat on top of a layer of cream which I didn't feel was necessary as the ice cream as good by itself. The boiled chestnut is very soft and slightly sweet and blends very well when eaten with the ice cream.

Had a great time at Fukuya with the friendly chef and the very impressive seafood they served. Quite a hidden gem in Jurong area and I would definitely recommend anyone to try the sashimi as it will definitely make you want more.

Next will be on the ambience, it's a nice quiet place with soft music for a nice meal. only problem to improve is the toilet inside the restaurant, not pleasant smelling. I like it that for if we have big grp, there is a closed door vip room big Enuf for probably 15 Or so. Aircon was cold the day I was there But can be adjusted upon request.

On Service, chef n service staffs were from friendly. attentive to us, & check if everything is fine with us. Finally on the most impt part, the Food! We had so much food till I couldn't finish! The list of items of the dishes we have tried: ·

Zensai ($10.80) – Seafood Mayo on Fresh Salad
- I love the taste of fresh prawns, octopus & some other things I can't identify plus seaweed n salad veg mixed together with mayo. It was a little salty but quite refreshing. i could taste the freshness of the seafood! ·

I love How different it is from the normal kind of sashimi coz these r special cuts! of Cox my fav is Botan Ebi, Toro n there is a Halibut something which is the white one in my photo. all super fresh n melts in your mouth. Just that I think I prefer my soy without truffle. special from the chef. I find truffle over powering the taste of the sashimi. wasabi taste very light, think it's freshly grated. ·

Japanese food is not difficult to find in Singapore, but to find one that serves really fresh Japanese sashimi with an affordable price is not easy.

Fukuya is not the best Japanese Restaurant in Singapore, even the Chef will tell you that. And after tasting one of the best in Tokyo Japan, I can only say very few can be comparable. But what stood out besides the few dishes I will be recommending is the first-class service from the staff. Right from the start, how attentive the staff were in refilling the tea pot with hot green tea, removing the plates when we are done, up till the Chef himself coming out frequently to ensure we had a pleasant dining experience, this is something rare in current service line. I would give a 4.5/5 for service.

As for the food, my personal favourite is the Dobin Mushi, simply because this is my first time trying the teapot soup, and tho there was dry oyster (which I generally dislike), the taste came out very well, I actually finished the entire pot of soup.

Ramen was special, cos it's not your usual pork base soup but rather a deep broth of veg soup. Very different but not too bad. Portion is huge enough for 2 pax to share.

Sashimi is nice. Fresh and sweet. That's all you need to ask for!

Fukuya Aburi sushi Mori (salmon, anago, Akami, Buri Belly + Unkan Uni & Ikura Topping. In this plate, no sauce and wasabi were served. In fact, these condiments have already added in the sushi.

The 1st dish Zensai, seafood Mayo on fresh salad. it is advisable to see the seaweed together with the salad, otherwise it will be very salty.

A simple restaurant in Jurong Country Club that serves nice Japanese cuisine. Was told the restaurant is known too for their bento but tonight's dinner was a full spread.

We started with the zensai Kaisen Kongo ($10.80) for appetizer which had about 8 ingredients like scallop, salmon, fish roe which was salty but when eaten with the lettuce garnish, it was better.

Next we had the teapot soup ($10.80) made from Oyster, not the tiny one but a big plumb juicy one.

The Sashimi Ume ($68.80) was good too. Halibut's fin sashimi was very good. Never tried it before but is very light and tasty. The fatty feel of the fish in the mouth was also fantastic. The Gindara Mentaiyaki was good too. It used pollack roe and cheese.

The teapot soup was made from oyster broth which was a pretty big sized one.

The Mentaiyaki was made from pollack roe and some cheese. 

The sushi selection was also good with a mix of seared and raw items. The uni was fresh and I enjoyed it.

Most interestingly, the ramen broth was made from vegetable and cooked with seafood which is different from other pork or chicken base ramen broth. It was tastier than expected but I found the ramen noodle bland. Maybe because I'm more used to the oilier pork broth ones. 

We ended the dinner with grape ice cream. It was yummy and the citrus taste is a great end to a lovely dinner.

Do check this place out. Definitely worth a repeat visit. There's visitor parking lot in the club so shouldn't be too difficult to get here by car or public transport. The restaurant setting is simple but the freshness and quality of the food is worth a trip to the Jurong country club for a good meal. Plus Chef Ming is such a lovely and personal host and that makes the whole experience very special.

Fukuya is a relatively new Japanese Restaurant located at Jurong Country Club. It offers authentic Japanese cuisine with Airflown ingredients fresh from Japan thrice a week. 

Seafood Mayo salad is made up of ten different ingredients. It's flavorful but can be a little too overwhelming with the salty taste. This is $10.80.

My favorite would be the Sashimi Platter with 7 kinds of sashimi. The freshness level is top notch and the sweetness of the fish stays in the mouth. The special Kunbu Shoyu which have a nice thick taste which is not too salty pairs up well with the sashimi and not overpowering the taste of the fish. This platter cost $68.80 which is worth every cent considering its Airflown fresh from Japan. 

Sushi Aburi style is something special as the sushi is seared to bring more flavors to the sushi. This is a chef special and not on the standard menu. 
 
Dobin Mushi served here is slightly different from the usual offerings at other places as the broth here is brewed with fresh oysters. The soup is fragrant and sweet. This is $10.80. 

Gintara Mentaiyaki is a popular Japanese dish and they did it slightly different here with the addition of cheese in the mentai cream which adds to the rich flavors. The grilled cod fish is moist with juice. This is at $20.80. 

Seafood ramen here is offered in a fusion style with a western vegetable seafood broth. It's generous in the ingredients like scallops, salmon, octopus and many more! The taste is very light and you will not get tired halfway through the bowl. This is priced is $26.80 and recommended to be shared by two for its generous portion. 

The Kyoho Ice Cream with Boiled Chesnut is a unique blend of flavors. I would say it's more like a sorbet which is super smooth and rich in the flavor of the Kyoho grapes. Very refreshing end to a meal. 

Highly recommend Fukuya to all Japanese cuisine lovers!

The first dish served was the seafood salad($10.80).It was made up of more than 10 different ingredients including seaweed,fish roes,scallop and clams.It was really crunchy and chewy.On top of that,it was really flavorful.The only complaint I would have for this dish is the seaweed was too salty.However I think it would taste fine if I were to eat everything together like my friend instead of eating the seaweed separately.

I was totally sold by the second dish,the all times favorite of every Japanese food lovers,sashimi! At $68,there was a good spread of premium sashimi which was imported directly from Japan. One of the highlights of the platter of sashimi was the engawa sashimi, fin muscles of sole fish.The sashimi literally melt in my mouth.Love every pieces of the sashimi served,they were so fresh and with e special seaweed shoyu with truffle oil,I was brought to heaven literally.

One of the dish that was not commonly found in every Japanese restaurant is the teapot soup.The teapot soup here was really luxurious, it was made with whole oyster.In my opinion,this soup tasted better without the lime. The nature sweetness of the ingredients used literally let me have a taste of the sea.

Gintara Mentaiyaki is definetly a must order here.The cod fish was cooked to perfection.On top of that,there is cheese added to the mentaiko thus the overall taste was really fragrant and definetly better than many other well known restaurants.

Another all time favorite is the sushi.The sushi here were made with hands instead of machine thus the firmness of the sushi can be felt when you first bite onto the sushi.Beside being fresh, the sushi here were made to bite size and this ensured the wholesome taste of what sushi is really about.

For anybody who love ramen,I strongly recommend the seafood ramen ($28) here.It is made from vegetables like cabbage, carrot,celery and many other vegetables.Then it was then machine blended to really fine before cooking it again with the seafood broth.Thus the end result is a bowl of really flavourful ramen with all the natural goodness and sweetness.

Overall, I love the dinning experience here as the service was really attentive. On top of the service, the food served was really good and fresh! Fukuya is definitely going to be my next most favourite restaurant.
