had an excellent lunch with wife & daughter at kuriya dining, great world city on 25.3.2015.^^
wife always have sake with japanese food.
we ordered a very nice S$68 jap wagyu uni ikura don. you can also order the set which comes with ebi tempura, chawanmushi & udon for S$88. we were happy just to have the beef don.
wagyu was so marbled & flavourful. uni was very sweet & smooth.
we ordered 2 sets of chirashi don.
it came with a double-decker bamboo tray like tiffin carrier.^^
one tray had anago (conger eel or sea eel), tam ago (egg roll), ikura, tobiko etc.
the other tray had uni, negi toro (minced toro), ama ebi (sweet prawns), and many fish over bed of vinegared sushi rice.
the sashimi was top quality. it was as good as the chirashi don at mikuni. it did not have the botan ebi & otoro like mikuni’s but had bigger serving of uni. there were many slices of hotate & lots of sashimi including salmon, hamachi, maguro, kajiki, tai
there was chawanmushi, good quality.
fruits & sashimi ice cream + a very poor mochi.
and coffee.
mikuni chirashi don is still my favourite at S$90 (S$45 after 50% feed at raffles discounts) & i don’t really need a set, ala carte is good enough.
however at S$62, this chirashi don had very good sashimi cuts & larger (maybe 25% more) so it was a very good match for mikuni & i will be quite happy to have this again.
