This neighborhood Japanese restaurant is a good place for a taste of affordable yummy Japanese food. The Kaki Furni ($12.80) is the chef's recommended signature dish. The deep fried oysters are crispy outside, juicy fat and fresh inside. The batter is not overly thick, just enough to give a crispy nice texture! Unagi Tofu ($7.80) is my favourite.

Oki Ebi Yaki Meshi ($15.80) is quite ordinary though, the fried rice tastes Ok, nothing too special though the big prawn is very fresh.

The Grilled Saba was quite good for the standard of a casual Japanese restaurant.

The Yasai Tempura consisted of deep fried sweet potato, golden mushroom, eggplant, mushroom and carrot. The deep fried carrot was very hard and I just don't enjoyed carrot being done this way.

Megumi Japanese Restaurant has the special promotion during weekdays.

Another main dish that we ordered is the Fried soba noodles ($9.80). The texture of soba noodles still maintained very well. The flavour is very good, I reckon it's a must try. It has plenty of ingredients too, vegetables and chicken meat. Yummy.

The soft-shell crab hand roll is pretty alright. The crab is slightly crispy and together with some mayonnaise, it tastes quite nice.

And lastly, we have the chocolate ice-cream. It says 'free-flow' on the menu if you choose it as the side dish, but we were so full that we didn't ask for the second scoop though it's very nice.

We had gone to Clementi market, and after shopping,we decided to have some Japanese food, so we decided on Meguni Restaurant as the venue was pretty close to clementi mall. It is just about 4 stops away by bus. We were too impatient to wait for a bus, so we took a cab.

Megumi Restaurant is located at Sunset way in an HDB setup,a longside many other good restaurants. We got off and luckily headed in the right direction. We had to pass by a food court and then spotted Megumi restaurant. It is a beautiful place with a Japanese feel, with a sit-out as well as an indoor seating arrangement. Japanese paintings were all over. A neat & impressive bar at 1 corner. We finally decided to take a table indoors. The staff, wearing maroon outfits, guided us to our table, and they were really warm & friendly. They handed us the menu card & we took a while to go through the menu and finally placed the order.

We ordered for Tofu megumi -age (served with teriyaki sauce), miso soup & crispy soft shell crab for starters, Katsu curry rice (Pork cutlet curry rice),Yaki Meshi (Japanese Fried rice) for main course, lemon iced tea, Japanese tea for beverages & green tea ice cream for dessert. The starters arrived first. we loved both the starters. The soft shell crab was crisp & tasty, the bean curd was great as well & so was the miso soup. Then came the main course, both the rice dishes were great, but i preferred the Yaki meshi more. we enjoyed our food with some Japanese tea & iced lemon tea. Finally the ice cream was served, it was topped with some kidney beans & tasted great. Overall I enjoyed the dining experience at Magumi. I would love to go there,whenever I am in the mood for some Japanese food.

We were in the mood for some Japanese food on Easter Sunday, so we decided on Meguni Restaurant as the venue for our Easter dinner :-). Megumi was recommended to us by our friends, so we went there. We had to take a bus from Clementi MRT.

Megumi Restaurant is located at Sunset way in an HDB setup,a longside many other good restaurants. As we got off at the bus stop,we were wondering what kind of restaurant to expect. We were pleasantly surprised once we located the restaurant, which was not difficult to find.

It is a lovely restaurant, with a sit-out as well as an indoor seating arrangement. Red seemed to be the theme of the restaurant. The place has beautiful japanese paintings all over. A neat & impressive bar at 1 corner. We finally decided to take a corner table. We were guided to our table by the 'Ever friendly Staff',wearing maroon outfits, who were really warm, courteous & welcomed us with a big smile. We were handed the Menu & we took some time to go through it before placing our order.

We ordered for Yaki Meshi (Japanese Fried rice), Bacon Hotate Yaki, Miso Shiro (soup) & fried ice cream for dessert. The Miso Shiro arrived first. It was a Miso soup,served warm, with a very distinct flavour. It was a good start to the meal. Then came Bacon Hotate Yaki & Yaki Meshi. The Bacon Hotate was Bacon wrapped scallops, served on a skewer with teriyaki sauce. Being bacon lovers, we loved the bacon wraps. The Japanese fried rice was also excellent. It was a normal chicken & egg fried rice with some vegetables. We had it with a dry chilli & pepper powder mix. We loved the fried rice so much,that we ordered it twice & requested for it to be spicy. We ate to our hearts content & finally finished off with a Vanilla fried ice cream. The fried ice cream was the best fried ice cream I've ever eaten. It was crispy & hard from the outside & soft & cold on the inside.

I loved the buzzers placed on every table,wherein we could press the buzzer to place an order, or to request for the bill. The food prices are reasonable but the portions are small. I have to admit the food is really tasty & the staff treat you royally and you will never regret dining there. It was a super duper dining experience for us. If you want to try Japanese cuisine in Singapore, Megumi Restaurant is the BEST

Megumi offers a good quality fresh sashimi that one should try. We had the Salmon sashimi ($10) the other day, and it is so nice. The thickness of the cut is just right. This is the first time I tried Dobin Mushi ($8.8), which is the seafood teapot soup. The soup is served in such a pretty teapot, and it has quite a bit seafood in it as well. The soup is clear but very rich in seafood flavour. Delicious! Soft shell crab ($9.8) is very crispy. It doesn't taste too oily which is a big success. It

We then had Kuro Goma Ice-cream ($5.8). I love the black sesame flavoured ice-cream, and topped with Japanese red beans, it's such a pleasure indulgence.

We also tried the Deep fried vanilla ice-cream ($4.8). It's a little disappointing though. The coating is slightly too thick and not as crispy as I would like it to be.

When we got there we were readily greeted by the waiter and ushered to our table. We then ordered our drinks of Coke and Iced lemon tea. The waiter gave us the menu and we started to select our dishes. We couldn't make up our minds on what to order and finally narrowed our search and selected Oki Ebi Yaki Meshi(fried rice with large prawns), Shiok Ramen (Noodle soup), Hokubee Teppan Yaki (A sort of a Beef Steak) and some Shiro Gohan (Steamed Rice sprinkled with bits of dry fish). Once our food arrived we began to indulge in some fine Japanese Cuisine and it all tasted really yummy and was really good to eat.

Who says you need to be in Japan to taste Japanese Cuisine...I've just returned after eating some Fine Japanese Cuisine right here in Sunny Singapore

After our last visit to Peaberry & Pretzel some time back, my gf and I decided to head back to Sunset Way to try out Megumi Japanese Restaurant on the recommendations of some folks.

Located just a few doors down from Peaberry & Pretzel, Megumi’s air conditioned interior is smallish, with the bulk of the seating capacity in the al fresco area outside. Notice that this means lunch here in the afternoon might mean a sweaty affair unless you get to sit inside.

Billed as the Megumi special roll, there was nothing really special about it in my humble opinion. It came across as your ordinary California Roll with crab sticks and Tamago in it. Not that the extra ingredients gave it much taste either. Lets just say it tasted like a slightly sweeter version of the California Roll. So much for the secrecy. One other bone I had was that the rice was a little too dry and could have been firmer.

Char Siew Ramen - Labeled a house specialty, the ramen was a let down honestly. The noodles were your normal egg noodles though of a more springy version whereas the Char Siew was a little too dry and tough. It certainly didn’t help that the soup was a tad too salty as well.

Saikoro Steak Set - Another one of the house specialties except that this one actually tasted quite decent. The beef was a little overcooked but still retained enough of its juices, taste and texture to warrant a decent rating. However, I must mention that portions are small and not homogeneously cooked, as evident by the residual butter I detected on some pieces of beef.

Black Sesame Ice Cream - I’m not exactly a fan of black sesame ice cream so I am not in a position to comment if its good or not. But my gf seemed to like it quite a bit so I’m guessing it must be of a certain standard.

Fried Vanilla Ice Cream - This was probably what I liked the best of all the dishes that evening. Interestingly, the batter was a thicker version of the crispy yet light tempura batter and actually went quite good with the vanilla ice cream. Now something needs to be done about the quality of the ice cream though, which was really mediocre.

While >$60 for 2 pax isn’t unreasonably expensive for the food, it isn’t exactly cheap either, considering that the food was merely average. One funny thing I discovered. The restaurant was actually playing Korean songs. How cool is that
