Grilled Foods

Visited Kurama in the evening for yakitori and drinks. The highlight was the Tsukune and the Miso Eggplant. The Tsukune had perfectly blended chicken rolled into a nice hand patty, lying in teriyaki sauce with an option to break the raw egg and coat it in yolk.

Adding the yolk imparted a silky dimension to it as you swallow it.

Kurama also has extensive alcohol options, being a sake bar. It adopts a casual yakitori / sake bar in Tokyo style but its prices are anything but. There are other lovely izakayas in Singapore that I’ve been to that are a fraction of the cost, and high end sushi omakase places I’d rather splurge on.

5/10 would rather explore other places but this isn’t bad for a date night

Meet4Meat markets itself as a go-to for budget gourmet meats and handmade pasta options. Located at Brunner’s Coffeeshop, Meet 4 Meat is the brainchild of Chef Gerald and Head Chef Jimmy, the former of the duo being an ex-chef in Wooloomooloo Steakhouse.

Having visited multiple times and tried a variety of their offerings, I would strongly recommend their Lamb Cutlet, the Pork Tomahawk or their signature Beef Wellington ($28). If you don’t mind the bustling atmosphere by the roadside, this Beef Wellington is as good as you’ll get at any restaurant. Mind you, add a foie gras and perfection is achieved 💋

9/10 will definitely be back.

The fish is amazingly buttery and falls off in flaky pieces. It’s definitely fatty and you can appreciate the texture from the very first bite. It’s essentially grilled cod fish with sweet sauce, and accompanied with sides that complemented the dish very well. Would highly recommend this particular fish from Nakahima Suisan. Definitely worth it for the price!
