The same people behind the Standing Sushi Bar introduced Tanuki Raw at the Orchard Central. Tanuki Raw's daily Happy Hour is definitely one of the best Happy Hours I've ever been to. From 5pm to 8pm everyday, you could enjoy $10 martini, $2 for freshly shucked raw oysters (limited to 6 oysters per drink), and $5 for 5 slices of salmon sashimi (limited to 1 portion per drink). My friend made the extra effort to come by Tanuki Raw by 6 pm on a Friday to snag a table for us. Once everybody reached by 7pm, we began feasting on raw oysters and salmon sashimi.

The oysters were so fresh! They were extremely delicious with lemon and tobasco. The sweet freshness oozing out of the juicy oysters was just so awesome.

The salmon sashimi slices were thick and juicy. They were also very fresh and sweet. Both the oysters and salmon sashimi went very well with the martini that I ordered.

My friend told us that Tanuki Raw's main courses were pretty average so we left after finishing our drinks, oysters, and salmon sashimi.

Seoulria is located on the right fork along Circular Road and is a very small cozy establishment. However, the place is really crowded during lunch hours and we were lucky to find an empty table when we arrived.

The side dishes were amazing! I am especially addicted to their seaweed egg roll and sauteed broccoli. Just looking at these pictures now make me want to return to Seoulria for lunch soon. The seaweed egg roll was simple yet so delicious! I think we asked for about 4 servings of the seaweed egg roll. It was that yummy. The mashed potato was awesome as well.

My Kimchi Soup. Spicy, sour, and very delicious. Unlike the food court version with a watery soup base and limp kimchi, the kimchi soup at Seoulria was thick with flavour. It was super yummy! I finished the whole bowl and am already looking forward to my next one!

Standing Sushi Bar has pretty awesome weeknight promotions.

We came on a Monday night because I wanted cheap salmon sashimi. Cannot resist $3 salmon sashimi and $5 umeshu!

This was our first order of 20 slices of salmon sashimi. After finishing this plate, we proceeded to order another 15 slices. When we were done with all our salmon sashimi, I felt like there were many slices of raw fish swimming around in my belly. The salmon sashimi was good and fresh. The cuts were thick and juicy, just the way I like it.

We could not possibly only have salmon sashimi for dinner so we decided to order a hand roll. We had one of their specialty rolls, the Rockstar Roll, which was basically a roll with pan-seared salmon. It was delicious! I am always fond of pan-seared salmon and did not really care that this was truly an overdose of salmon.

This dinner at Standing Sushi Bar was filled with raw and cooked salmon, and nothing else. But it was just so satisfying! Washing everything down with a $5 glass of umeshu made this dinner perfect!

The set lunch came with a salad, sashimi, rice, miso soup, and dessert. Prices were reasonable too for the number of courses and the quality of food served. I ordered the Sake Teriyaki (Salmon Teriyaki) which was $16.80.

The salmon sashimi was pretty awesome. The slices were thick, fresh, and juicy. I love the sweetness oozing out of the fresh salmon sashimi slices.

The salmon teriyaki was pretty good. Nicely grilled with a delicious crispy skin. However, the salmon was slightly overcooked which caused it to be a bit dry and tough. It lacked the juicy texture of perfectly grilled salmon.

I ordered Yuzu Sorbet as dessert which was refreshingly sweet. I love Yuzu! Never fail to perk me up after a heavy meal.

Overall, the set lunch was pretty good at Tamashii Robataya and value for money. I will be back!

The 4 colours set meant we could choose 4 types of marinated pork which also came with a large seafood stew and the usual set dishes. We chose miso, wine, garlic, and smoked pork.

The seafood stew was large! The soup base in 8 Korean BBQ Restaurant was milder, less robust, and without the sweetness of fresh seafood.

The BBQ pork belly was another thing altogether. They were marvelous. The waitress set out the thick slices of pork belly on the grill and doled out large portions of kimchi and beansprouts beside them. She proceeded to grill the pork for us patiently, flipping them around and making sure that they were grilled evenly to crispy juicy slices.

Once the pork belly was ready, she cut them into smaller slices and arranged them neatly into 4 neat piles. The kimchi and beansprouts were also nicely heated up by that time. I have to say, the kimchi at 8 Korean BBQ was delicious. It was the most yummy, fragrant, and crunchy kimchi I've ever tasted. The pork belly was fantastic too. Slices of thick juicy cuts, extremely well-marinated, and grilled to perfection. I am particularly fond of the garlic flavour because it was the tastiest and most fragrant marination of the 4 types we ordered.

The marination was definitely good at 8 Korean BBQ Restaurant. The flavour was fully absorbed in all slices and the meat was incredibly tasty. Service was excellent and the waitress made a good effort to ensure that our slices of pork belly were evenly grilled. They also came to our table to check on us often. I would be back!
