This is one hell of an award-winning restaurant that has continued to impress even our Lee Family. Apparently sometime in 2007, Chef Santaro was given the greatest honour of cooking for Minister Mentor Lee Kwan Yew, who is fondly regarded as the father of Singapore. You can see our Prime Minister’s family pix on the walls of the restaurant & Chef Santaro also visits their home to cook for the Lee family. I was there for lunch with a Japanese ex-colleague.

I was there for lunch with a Japanese ex-colleague. I’d the Combi Lunch Course @ S$40, which includes 2 items from the main, an appetizer, chawanmushi, salad, rice, soup & dessert.
While waiting for my course, I’d always order my fave Oyster Mentaiko (カキの明太子焼き) @ S$12/piece. This Grilled Pearly Delicacy is not on the menu; you’ve to request for it, but you won’t regret your choice. Despite being put into the griller, the Oyster still comes out fresh & juicy.
The Assortment Sashimi I had consisted of the Maguro Tuna(黒鮪), Hamachi Yellow Tail (はまち), Salmon（生鮭) & Geoduck (ナメガイ). It’s the 1st time I’m eating Geoduck raw. Errr….. I’m learning to appreciate the “rubbery” texture, but the rest of the Sashimi was superb!
The lunch set also came with a Salad, Appetizer of the Day & Chawanmushi (茶碗蒸し). Love the smooth & silky texture of the Egg Custard.
I’m a big fan of Mentaiko (明太子); it’s actually marinated Pollock roe & is a common ingredient in Japanese cuisine. The Oyster Mentaiko wasn’t enough for me, so I’d selected another Mentaiko dish - the Gindara Mentaiko (銀鱈の明太子焼き). The Cod fish was covered with generous helping of the spicy roe, making me salivate with every bite.
For dessert, I’d top up about S$4 to change it to my fave Macha Ice-cream. Yum!
