Age Ya (#05-99 Far East Plaza, 14 Scotts Road) is relatively new and has taken over the spot that used to be Happy Geprek. Food's Japanese as one might surmise from their name. Even though they're a new kid in the block, the people running the show aren't new to their game.
One of the recommended items to order was kinoko tofu - their in house agedashi tofu made with mushrooms. Nice. We had seconds. What worked for me was the spicy daikon oroshi they used which added that prickly heat into both the tofu and the dashi broth.
Some fried prawn toast. Not bad.
There's engawa mentai yaki. 👀 That's right, aburi-ed engawa with mentai mayo. And some tobiko. How could we not?
Miso soup had salmon bits in it. We waited pretty long for our donburis that we finished everything else and the soup before they arrived.
Their premium hana bara chirashi don was...pretty. What with all the edible flowers and microgreens. To be fair, those added flavour as well amid the myriads of texture from the combinations of tobiko, cubed fish, sakura ebi and tempura bits.
The hana bara also came with shitake gobo rice which was in a separate....box? There's a bunch of stuff that also added flavours and textures but those flavours were less intense than the looks convinced me.
That's the premium kaisen don. I see repeated ingredients like the tobiko, sakura ebi, furikake and tempura bits that the other bowl had - those flaxture bombs. Hah! Nice seafood quality and delicious uni there.
