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.
