Japanese Omakase: Matsuya Sushi Bar at 39 Seah St, Singapore 188395
August 20, 2017I thought I had found the best in Japanese omakase I visited Hakumai (not cheap but good) and Ryo Sushi (for cheap and good), but turns out there's another contender in the mix - Matsuya Sushi Bar at 39 Seah St, just beside Naumi Hotel. Helmed by the affable Chef Benson who hailed from famous Japanese restaurants in the past such as the one at Goldhill Plaza serving celebrities to other popular restaurants for almost 30 years! It's time to do his own thing now with the cosy little shophouse with a long counter as he goes around it to serve up the freshest sushi and seafood of the day.
We had the privilege to sample some of the dishes which you can find from an 8-course omakase dinner valued at $88++. There are also set dinners (e.g. wagyu or unagi don) options or ala carte dishes or premium sushi sets.
I'll be describing the dishes but note that all of them gets a 5/5 from me, and of course this omakase too. The value and quality is unbeatable.
The century egg tofu with tobiko is one of my favourite Japanese appetisers. Silky smooth with umami popping at every bite!
