Chirashi Don

It is hard to resist a beautiful bowl of Chirashi-don that is filled to the brim with fresh, premium seafood. Apart from the fact that it is completely colourful and photogenic, a good bowl of chirashi-don does wonders for the soul with all the goodness in one serving.

Chirashi-dons come in many shapes and sizes. The most popular serving in Singapore is the classic chirashi-don, where big slices of sashimi are served atop vinegar-ed Japanese rice, and more often than not comes with a premium price tag. On days that we need our sashimi and rice fix without burning a hole in our wallets, we turn to ‘bara chirashi-don’, which typically refers to diced sashimi – sometimes marinated with mirin or soy sauce.

Thankfully, we have several affordable chirashi-don options in Singapore and most of the ones on this list are so affordable that we are not even kidding! Here is a guide to Chirashi-dons In Singapore That Are S$20 And Under.

What makes a good plate of fries? There are many attributes and factors, but we believe that as long as your fries are so good that you cannot stop munching on them until the plate or bowl is wiped clean, then they are helluva great fries. You know, like how after an almost ethereal first bite and you are hooked. Forever.

The best fries can be pretty easy to spot – glistening golden sticks, deep-fried to perfection. Perfection comes in the form of a warm fluffy centre and a crisp and tasty outer layer. Yes, we kid you not – we worship fries, but only because they make us happier people.

We thank all Heavens for the many places in Singapore that serve an amazing plate of fries with different varieties to choose from. Here are our picks of the 14 Best Fries You Can Find in Singapore that are worth the calories!
