The number of courses sounded daunting at first, but that was what we got to enjoy the premium cuts and boy, was it a great decision! We were so stuffed, but enjoyed the whole experience very, very much.
Pictured were the five courses I enjoyed the most. Don't get me wrong, I actually enjoyed every one, but those were the most memorable ones for me.
1. Akami (lean tuna): I already expected the chutoro and otoro (the fattier cuts) to be good, but I'm partial towards the akami because it reminded me of my time in Japan. Good food is good its own right, but when it actually brings you back somewhere... now that's really something. The chef also shared that it's not common we get something like that in Singapore (I agreed) because they've marinated it beforehand to get it to taste like that.
2. Madai (Japanese seabream): This was my first time having it and I wonder where it has been all my life. Not as well known as the salmon or tuna, but no less amazing in taste- really light and fresh!
3. Onsen tamago and Ikura (I call it the "Eggs on Egg"): Both ingredients already amazing on its own, but what a flavour explosion when eaten together. The creaminess and slightly saltiness of it all... so satisfying.
4. Ika (squid): None of that rubbery texture here, this had a nice chew and wasn't tough at all.
5. Hotate (Scallop): I think "melt-in-the-mouth" is one pretty overused phrase but this literally did. Wonderful.

What an incredibly exciting culinary journey, especially with the friendly chef. We were lucky to be seated next to a nice couple, who explained that it was their first omakase and apologised for asking "noob questions". I waved that off quickly and as I told her, we were all there to learn and that's part of the fun. Service was efficient (our glasses were never empty and plates promptly cleared), and considerate (our plates were wiped clean in preparation for the next course, ginger promptly refilled). Definitely recommending this place!
