Izakaya Niningashi (2 Craig Road, tel : +65 6970 0224) is an offshoot of Himonoya. How did I know that they were? The menu was exactly (well, almost) the same. But since there were other things from Himonoya that we didn't get to try when we were there, it'll be more or less the same getting them here.
Shirasu tofu was nice. Portions were also tiny for the price. They use Otokomae tofu here and the quality showed in the flavour.
There was a smoked potato salad. The smokiness came from the slices of smoked herring which they included. This one wasn't as smoky as the one from Hokkaido Izakaya.
Couldn't resist a bit of ankimo and shirako in ponzu while these were still available.
Shirasu tamago kake gohan. Great with shoyu, great with the leftover ponzu from the ankimo/shirako.
One of the things we had been looking forward to was their cross sectional cut of their hon maguro which featured the trinity of akami, chutoro and otoro. This was so good. If only they had served it with better quality wasabi.
The other item I was waiting to get my chopsticks into was their grilled kinmedai. Yummy.
