Being an izakaya, Taira has a very large selection of appetisers on its menu, with quite a few funky starters like pig’s ears (!!) and I thought the uni shooter ($8++) sounded like a pretty interesting item to try. Not. A little spicy with a hint of choya, the combination was too weird for me. I wouldn’t say it tasted gross but it’s definitely not something I wanna gulp down again.Stick to the usual suspects and I’ll be as happy as can be. Maguro with gooey natto beans ($5++, above), well-season

Being an izakaya, Taira has a very large selection of appetisers on its menu, with quite a few funky starters like pig’s ears (!!) and I thought the uni shooter ($8++) sounded like a pretty interesting item to try. Not. A little spicy with a hint of choya, the combination was too weird for me. I wouldn’t say it tasted gross but it’s definitely not something I wanna gulp down again.

Stick to the usual suspects and I’ll be as happy as can be. Maguro with gooey natto beans ($5++, above), well-seasoned chuka wakame ($3++), deliciously addictive fugu mirin boshi ($8++), crispy and sweet pumpkin korokke ($3++) and my personal favourite is actually complementary from the chef: nicely seared tuna carpaccio ($8++ ala carte).

Not-so-good choices include pickled eggplant ($3++) that’s too salty and mouth-puckering; incredibly bland fried sweet potato ($3++), withered chamame ($3++); and unfresh-cum-oily shisamo($3.50++).
