YOSHI RESTAURANT
B1-39 Forum the Shopping Mall, 583 Orchard Road, S(238884)
TEL: 8188 0900
This Kyoto-style kaiseki restaurant (tuna), uni (eel) and Wagyu (beef). The chef orchestrates personalised attention while diners, seated at a U-shaped counter, indulge in differing tastes and textures throughout the elaborate meals. The steamed sea bream in Kyoto-style clear soup stimulates the senses with a visual treat, an appetising aroma and a delicate taste. The hay-smoked charcoal-grilled Wagyu beef with light, smoky, herbal fragrances is delectably rich and tender; the accompanying sugar tomato oozes uniquely sweet and fruity tastes. The dark-fleshed tuna loin has a full-bodied taste, while the pale-hued tuna belly is light yet rich. The popular claypot rice with sakura shrimp emphasises the crispness of the tiny red crustaceans. The wall adornments of authentic Kyoto roof tiles provide a tranquil atmosphere. Japanese beverages dominate the wine list, though there is a selection of Old and New World wines.
