Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Quality Japanese Cuisine

 Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Restaurant Front

I have dined at Ootoya some years back so I know I can expect quality Japanese cuisine from this restaurant. I was delighted when a sales representative treated us to a meal at Ootoya (Clementi Mall). 

Ootoya - The Food

Ootoya has an extensive menu that encompasses different varieties of Japanese cuisine and ingredients. You can find the full menu here

Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - 5 Sashimi

Sashimi is a must-order at any Japanese restaurant, especially at renowned Japanese restaurants such as Ootoya. 5 Sashimi [S$28] gives you 3 pieces of salmon, yellowtail, shrimp, bigeye tuna and scallop. The sashimi are fresh, they taste amazing with soy sauce and wasabi.

Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Chirashi Don

If you want to have sashimi as a meal, get the Chirashi Don [Set S$21, Ala Carte S$18]. You get dice-cut pieces of assorted seafood such as bigeye tuna maguro, yellowtail buri and salmon on top of sushi rice. 

Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Unagi Jyu

One of my favorite Japanese food is unagi, I wonder how good is the unagi at Ootoya so I ordered Unagi Jyu [M Size S$24.90, L Size S$29.90] to try.

The unagi and tare sauce are spot-on, but it lacks the charred smokiness that makes Unagiya Ichinoji’s unagi so mouthwatering.

Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Hokke

If unagi is not your thing, try Hokke [Set S$23.50, Ala Carte S$18.50] which is charcoal-grilled atka mackerel fish. This fish has a mild taste and big bones that are easy to pick out. 

Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Rosu Tonkatsu

Tonkatsu is another popular Japanese dish and Ootoya’s Rosu Tonkatsu [Set S$21, Ala Carte S$16] is a good choice. The crispy exterior highlights the tender and juicy pork loin cutlet inside.

Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Pork Katsu Toji

Pork Katsu Toji [Set S$20, Ala Carte S$15] is basically Rosu Tonkatsu in hotpot form, in a mellow soy sauce broth.

Ootoya (Clementi Mall) - Pork Belly

Pork Belly [Set S$24.50, Ala Carte S$19.50] is marinated with shoyu-kouji in restaurant before grilling till slightly charred. The marination brings out the natural flavour of the pork belly and grilling gives the pork belly a nice smoky aroma.

Conclusion

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
