Savour the very best of each worlds at Mizuki

Nestled in a quiet spot in the midst of Ngee Ann City’s fifth flooring is Mizuki, a Japanese restaurant that has been recognized amongst its regulars for its sensible idea: 2 counters— 1 for sushi and the opposite for tempura. Now for the primary time since its opening in 2017, Mizuki has launched a mixed sushi and tempura course menu, no matter the place you sit.

This bought us excited and we headed down for a style of this beautiful menu.

At Mizuki, your dishes will probably be crafted by a sushi grasp from Osaka and veteran tempura grasp as they ply their craft with the freshest seafood catches from Japan.

Customers can choose between 3 completely different Japanese eating experiences accessible at completely different value factors, S$198, S$268 or S$388. Each dinner begins with appetiser-style dishes, sashimi, cooked seasonal dish, a collection of particular person tempura items, nigiri sushi, earlier than ending with a kakiage soba or don and eventually, dessert.

We tried the S$268 menu, and fell in love not solely with the style, but in addition the visible splendour of the dishes. The sashimi course consisted of beautifully-plated evergreen favourites like bluefin ootoro, and rarer seasonal fish corresponding to Kuromutsu (Japanese bluefish) and Ainame (fats greenling).

Next was the highly-awaited tempura course. We have been served 5 items of tempura, every fried freshly on cue. The spotlight of the course was the seaweed tempura which was topped with a wonderful serving of recent and creamy Hokkaido bafun uni and caviar and Kuruma ebi (Japanese tiger prawn) served in 2 components: crispy fried prawns legs alongside its candy and juicy physique.

We have been greeted with a winter-time delicacy for the 4th course, Seiko kani, a steamed and deshelled Hokkaido feminine snow crab with roe. This was completely scrumptious! My eating accomplice and I wished extra.

The nigiri course consisted of 4 kinds of sushi together with toro (bluefin tuna), nodoguro (sea perch), shiromi (sea bream) and uni (sea urchin).

For the following course, we got the choice between Kakiage Don and Kakiage Soba. You may also improve to a Mini Negitoro Uni Don for a complement of S$40. For dessert, diners can look ahead to a choice of recent fruits from Japan.
