Specialising in the best premium Japanese wagyu that melts in your mouth, Fat Cow is a Japanese steakhouse where you can enjoy an extensive array of top-of-the-line Japanese beef.

Fans of the award-winning fine-dining Japanese restaurant will be thrilled to know that they have opened MIYOSHI by Fat Cow, a new modern dining concept at Mess Hall in Sentosa.

MIYOSHI, which translates to ‘three graces’, is an allusion to the restaurant’s roots and its concept. A culinary collaboration by Head Chef Shingo Iijima of Fat Cow and Sous Chef Nigel Loh, MIYOSHI by Fat Cow focuses on three iconic dining experiences of Japanese cuisine – ramen, teppan-kaiseki and omakase.

If it is your first time visiting MIYOSHI by Fat Cow, we highly recommend going for their dinner Teppan-Kaiseki (S$280+++ and additional S$78++ for a 4-glass sake pairing) – an exquisite 11-course meal which showcases some of the best offerings by the modern Japanese restaurant. We were simply blown away by the sheer lavishness of the premium ingredients.

MIYOSHI by Fat Cow’s Teppan-Kaiseki dinner menu

• Zensai
• Fresh Spring Rolls & Wagyu Tartare
• Wagyu Sawani-wan
• Straw Smoked Hokkaido Scallops
• Uni Soba
• Yuzu Butter Madai
• Steamed Abalone
• Teppan Style Sukiyaki
• Wagyu Tenderloin A4
• Signature Garlic Rice
• Black Sesame Tofu

The meal began with a series of appetisers in the form of “light bites”. The Wagyu Kinome Yaki was a no-frills kind of appetiser – just a lovely piece of wagyu that’s pan-seared to a perfect tenderness.

A thinly-sliced A4 wagyu slice was lightly boiled then simmered in a lovely dashi broth with shredded vegetables, and the end result was simply sublime. What a way to start our Teppan-Kaiseki!

These Straw Smoked Hokkaido Scallops has redefined scallops for us. Probably among the hugest scallops we’ve ever seen, these plump babies were carefully teppanyaki-grilled for that hint of smokiness while retaining the juiciness.

The Uni Soba was such a pretty dish! And it tasted as good as it looked. You get fresh uni atop cold soba, topped with nikumiso and soba sauce – the dish was creamy with a nice texture, and subtly sweet.

This dish of Yuzu Butter Madai was superb! A fresh chunk of a sea bream is seared on the teppan, then coated with yuzu kyoto miso and served with sweet seasonal vegetables; light flavours, yet packs a punch.

The highlight for us was the Teppan Style Sukiyaki. Luxuriate in a slice of marinated wagyu, served in a black truffle sukiyaki and egg yolk sauce – we were so in awe of this dish that we wanted more.

Saving the best for the last, we had the Wagyu Tenderloin A4. It was lightly seasoned with salt and pepper to allow the natural flavour of the beef to shine. You can always count on the Fat Cow team to serve the best steaks!

Other than the Teppan-Kaiseki, MIYOSHI by Fat Cow offers other a la carte dishes and you can choose from various menus including Teppanyaki, Robatayaki, Sukiyaki, Shabu Shabu, Donburi and Ramen.

From the prized Satsuma beef to the renowned Hida beef, and everyone’s favourite Miyazaki beef, MIYOSHI by Fat Cow offers some of the best premium Japanese beef in Singapore.

Go for their Robatayaki-style Satsuma A4 Tenderloin (S$158) or Hida A5 Wagyu Ribeye (S$148). And not forgetting the crowd-favourite wagyu donburi. You can go for the Wagyu Yakiniku Donburi or try the Hida Wagyu Ribeye & Satsuma Tenderloin Donburi teppanyaki-style.

Another highlight of MIYOSHI by Fat Cow is the Wagyu Shoyu Ramen (S$58++) that features premium Miyazaki A4 wagyu presented in shabu-style slices.

From now till 30 June 2023, when you dine with a guest for the teppan-kaiseki dinner set menu, pay by Mastercard and receive a complimentary bottle of sake.

Established in 1980, Shima at Goodwood Park Hotel is the oldest Japanese restaurant in Singapore which is known for its traditional teppanyaki. It is frequented by Japanese expats and those with has a discerning appetite for fine Japanese cuisine.

Freshly grilled food (yaki) on an iron plate (teppan), Shima offers teppanyaki courses in a slightly aristocratic yet traditional setting. In short, you can expect nothing short of the finest quality and dedicated service.

The beef tenderloin steak came with a smoky exterior and medium-rare interior. Accompanied with deep-fried garlic chips and yasai-yaki, this main course was a true stunner.

Other than its signature Teppayaki menus, Shima also offers sashimi and sushi which is air-flown at least once a week from Japan.

Every grain of rice is coated with the oil used to fry the garlic, with pepper added to elevated the overall fragrance of this dish. It was, hands down, the best garlic rice that we’ve had in Singapore.

Housed in a dignified colonial building, Mess Hall is the pinnacle of exquisite dining in the new Sentosa experience – Mess Hall, Village Hotel Sentosa, The Outpost Hotel and The Barracks Hotel. What was originally a military outpost has now been transformed into a contemporary village of endless gourmet possibilities.

More than just culinary excellence, the architecture of the building brags of a quiet elegance. Beyond the perimeters of the building lies a Heritage Courtyard, replete with grassy terrains and a serene atmosphere.

From Hidemasa by Hide Yamamoto’s refined Japanese cuisine, to Royal Taj’s curries and biryani, and Quentin’s Bar and Restaurant’s sophisticated Eurasian dishes, here is our guide on the 3 restaurants at Mess Hall that you have to dine at.

HIDEMASA BY HIDE YAMAMOTO

For a luxurious Japanese indulgence, set your sights on Hidemasa by Hide Yamamoto. This elegant Japanese restaurant prides itself on its multi-disciplinary dining concept — Hide and Masa — which sees the harmonious matrimony of teppanyaki and omakase in a single venue.

The man behind the establishment, Hide Yamamoto, is a Japanese-born French chef who was trained in Italy. With multiple culinary accolades under his belt, you can rest assured that you will definitely have an amazing dining experience here.

Hide, their teppanyaki concept, is housed in a sophisticated space dressed in warm, woody tones. Guests can have front-row seats at the teppanyaki counter to get a first-class view of the chef’s performative cooking.

Their signature menu sees a significant number of truffle-infused creations, such as Truffle Chawanmushi, Robatayaki, and Truffle Ice Cream.

The Robatayaki features a whole young chicken stuffed with truffle butter rice and grilled atop charcoal fire. The succulent chicken was served in tasteful pieces and liberally garnished with fresh truffle shavings. Not forgetting the truffle rice, which had a delicious buttery crisp.

But the highlight of the entire menu for us has got to be their Miyazaki A5 Wagyu Chateaubriand. Juicy, melt-in-your-mouth tender and finished with a charred crisp, the beef was absolutely divine.

As for Masa, their omakase dining counterpart, it is set in an intimate space equipped with a long bar seating. The open-concept kitchen showcases fresh seasonal ingredients snagged straight from the markets of Japan. Relish in thick slices of buttery sashimi and artistically crafted sushi.

Simply quote ‘ladyironchef’ to enjoy 1-for-1 330ml beer with teppanyaki & Omakase order from now until 2 April 2020.

ROYAL TAJ

If you are in the mood for some piquant curries and biryani, Royal Taj will be more than happy to accommodate you. This respectable establishment showcases inventive and classic Indian fare in their ala-carte lunch and bountiful dinner buffet selection.

Influenced by flavours from all across India, you’ll be getting a taste of authentic, age-old recipes made from globally sourced ingredients. With endless streams of tikka masala and fresh naan at your disposal, it’s the ultimate Indian dining experience.

Their interior brags of a cosy and clean atmosphere, with pops of dark blue and vibrant paintings. It’s perfect for either a casual lunch for a relaxing dinner.

Some of the highlights of their buffet line-up include the Tandoori Platter, Royal Taj Special Butter Chicken, Paneer Pasanda and Mango Phirni.

The Tandoori Platter features Paneer Achari Tikka, Mustard Broccoli, Chicken Malai Kebab and Fish Amritsari Tikka. Our favourites were the Paneer Achari Tikka — grilled marinated cottage cheese — and Chicken Malai Kebab.

Royal Taj’s rendition of Delhi-style Butter Chicken was easily the best we’ve had. Thick, creamy and delectably spiced, it was everything you could ever ask for. Their Palak Paneer was a crowd favourite as well, brimming with herbaceous creaminess. Paired with their crisp fluffy naan and fragrant basmati rice, it was the dreamiest combination.

Also, for those of you reading, you’re in for a treat! Our readers can quote ‘ladyironchef’ to get 10% off your bill at Royal Taj from now until 2 April 2020.

QUENTIN’S BAR AND RESTAURANT

Talk about Eurasian cuisine in Singapore and one name will come up. Quentin’s Bar and Restaurant is the ultimate spot for authentic and sophisticated Eurasian dishes.

If you aren’t too familiar with Eurasian cuisine, it’s the beautiful matrimony of European and Asian flavours. That particular style of cooking often involves a blend of exotic spices and piquant sauces, such as tamarind and vinegar.

The kitchen is helmed by Chef Quentin Pereira, who combines quality ingredients with age-old recipes to produce delicious, mouthwatering dishes. Expect nothing less than a lavish chow-down at his chic abode.

The space speaks of modern minimalism, with a play on monotones and chic textures. The varying wine glasses add a touch of sophistication to every table.

Take your pick from their mains selection which includes dishes such as Chicken Curry Debal and Pot Roast Beef. Their Pot Roast Beef was excellently succulent and doused with a light savoury jus. Bolstered by roasted vegetables, it made for a super hearty dish.

End your dinner on a sweet note with their thoughtfully decadent desserts. Their Sugee Cake is delightfully buttery with a super addictive crunch from the almonds embedded within.

Whenever we talk about Japanese food whether it’s your humble conveyor belt sushi or a full-on gastronomic omakase experience, the same question never fails to pop up—is it worth the splurge?

Well, while a 500-dollar omakase meal may not qualify for a typical weekday dinner, there are in fact, plenty of Japanese restaurants of varying price points that allow even the most thrifty of individuals to have a pretty solid Japanese meal whenever they are craving for Japanese cuisine—even if they are on a budget constraint.

From top-of-the-line Japanese dining establishments to humble hole-in-the-walls, here is our list of Japanese restaurants in Singapore for every budget.
