We had always been curious abt this restaurant, which was located one floor above a restaurant that we liked. Both restaurants are owned by the same group. So finally last weekend we took our parents and the kids for dinner here.We ordered the shabu set which was a mix platter of vegetables, tofu and meat, all of us chose the 'premium Japanese wagyu shabu2 set' at first. Then the service staff recommended the pork belly set for variety, she said that it was a popular item on the menu. I was reluctant at first because normally when we have pork in shabu2, it would either taste bland or leaves a porky scent in the palate. However, we decided to give it a try, because there were 7 of us, so even if it was bad, its unlikely to cause wastage.....There were 7 different broths to try, we had the goma broth which cost an additional $5. They used charcoal for the shabu2, not the usual gas or induction pot. The wagyu was well marbled and a few swishing movements in the soup cooks it easily. I had the ponzu dip, mixed with scallions, daikon and garlic....cut chilli was also available upon request... the wagyu was the same high quality we had expected because their grill restaurant downstairs serves one of the best wagyu in town. I was satisfied with the broth which I initially thought would overplay the quality meats. The broth was tasty and sweet but it was not overpowering. It is the right taste level, to effectively complement the meat. Finally, The pork belly had the right amount of fat, was finely sliced, and cooked as easily as the wagyu. It didn't cause streaks to get in between the teeth! The best thing was, it didn't leave any unpleasant scent. It was the first time I had pork shabu2 that was so satisfying, what more this was pork belly!..definitely would recommend the pork belly to friends!Overall we were very satisfied with the food here, the meat was tender and fresh, (even my parents who wore dentures can eat heaps) the soup was flavourful and wholesome, ...after all the meats n veg were finished, we ordered some udon to eat with the soup....and this was the kids' favourite part.....making the slurping sounds whilst finishing up the noodles.This is truly a restaurant for the whole family! …查看更多

We went there without the kids to celebrate our dating anniversary. We had the Ito-wagyu (small), the wagyu tongue, and a long karubi beef plate, together w a horenso salad.the wagyu was good value, because having stayed in Singapore for quite a while now, I realise that most restaurants serve aussie wagyu, which for me falls short compared to its Japanese counterpart. We had a good jap wagyu fix before but prices were quite steep.... this time through some Japanese friends' recommendations, we went to try it here. I must say that the wagyu is definitely the best I have tasted so far, and much better value! because the beef was of high quality, we requested for just salt to eat w it instead for their sweet dip. (a plus was, the Himalayan salt, so this restaurant bothers w the details after all!) it was just perfect! reminded me of the jap bbq we had in Sapporo! only we downed it with ASAHI Super Dry Draft Beer this time! I would say, that had also made its mark for me!It was the first time I tried beef tongue, and because hubby is a wagyu fan, he insisted on the wagyu tongue....the staff gave us a dipping bowl of lemon juice for the tongue...I dunno why...but it sure worked the best (I tried combinations w salt and sauce too) so I think, beef tongue is added to my 'favourite food list'Finally we had the karubi, cause we thought if ever we come to this restaurant, we can't be eating wagyu all the time right?! bringing my three kids would surely make my wallet 'super dry'! (they are all beef fans) so the staff suggested we try the long karubi.it was fantastic, the marbling was even and it cooked almost like the wagyu, very tender to the bite! it may even taste like wagyu for the non-seasoned diner.overall, its the best beef fix I had in sgp. I was recommended to go to the anchor point branch by a jap friend because of its homely feel, and the staff were very friendly....when I chatted w two of them, they said they have been around for years...(where do u go these days finding ppl who stay so long in one joint?!)I would definitely come back w my brood! ......maybe we need 5 plates of long karubi!!!…查看更多
