This casual shophouse eatery (99B Tanjong Pagar Road, tel : +65 6222 1976) was opened by Teppei-san of Teppei/Hana Hana, both of which were merely a couple of minutes walk away. We came by for lunch. This was one option for a taste of their talked about barachirashi bowl without having to queue (at Hana) or put yourself though an outrageously advanced reservation (at Teppei).
Their barachirashi set includes some of the buffet spread during lunch. This represented very good value for a couple of reasons. The first being the quantity of raw fish that one gets in that barachirashi bowl. There's a very generous portion of cubed raw fish with ikura. While one doesn't get premium cuts of fish since this isn't priced for it, it's a decent meal with decent quality freshness that you won't walk away hungry from. Which leads me to the unlimited rice that you get as well. It's excellent with the furikake if you're out of fish. What was pleasantly surprising, was their use of grated wasabi rather than the paste.
This was the rice meal portion that came from their buffet set. It's steamed anago with rice. Steaming soft rice steeped with the sweet sauce and flavours from the eel.
