My friend and I were planning to make a trip to Sentosa but my friend suggested eating at Vivo City before going as she was concerned that the food would be overpriced there, although I personally preferred trying the food there... but we compromised and she opted to have an early lunch at the Ichiban Boshi branch at Vivo City.The place was still quite empty when we went on a weekday noon during the school holidays although this might have to do with the fact that the outlet opened its doors for
The place was still quite empty when we went on a weekday noon during the school holidays although this might have to do with the fact that the outlet opened its doors for business just a short while ago. Nevertheless, the interior was clean and the place was already operational with sushi already being prepared and placed on the conveyor's belt. Upon seating, we placed our order and were surprised when the food were served less than 5 minutes later. I guess that was an advantage of going when the place was still empty.
Ichiban Jyu ($13.90)My friend opted for this dish which was salmon sashimi with sesame oil and chili padi on sushi rice bowl. The salmon was quite fresh and the dish was a tad spicy. My friend liked this dish and found it pretty good, although I was neutral about it. This dish also came with a side of miso soup which was quite tasty.
Cha Soba ($8.50) I wanted to save my stomach for more food at Sentosa later, so I just got a bowl of Cha Soba. This simple dish was served cold with ice on it to maintain the temperature. The soba was quite firm and chewy. The dipping sauce was a tad salty but it worked well and added some flavour to the otherwise mild soba. Overall, I thought this was a rather refreshing dish to have and it was also quite reasonable at $8.50. My friend also gave this dish the thumb up. If you are looking for a healthy but tasty meal, I'd recommend the cha soba, which you can also pair up with a dish from the ala carte menu for a more completed meal!
I'd actually love to have sit longer and tried more food on their menu but unfortunately it was time to go. We were in and out in about 30 minutes, which I thought was rather a pity as I'd prefer to savour the experience and food especially at cafes or restaurants. Nevertheless I'd visit other branches in the future to try their other food, especially the tempura ice cream which looked quite interesting!
