Popular modern Japanese fusion restaurant, Omoté is opening a new outlet at Raffles City in Nov 2022.

Formerly known as Sushiro, Omoté is famous for their value-for-money Bara Chirashi Don.

Stacked high, and generously with thick cubes of raw fish, there is no reason why you should give this a miss if you truly love sashimi—or Japanese food for that matter.

Do not be fooled by its unbelievably affordable price tag because what you get are insanely thick cubes of fish and a generous amount of Japanese rice.

Other than the signature Bara Chirashi Don, Omoté also offers a selection of modern Japanese dishes with an Asian influence and you can find items such as sushi rolls, sashimi, and donburi on the menu.

If you have a soft spot for Japanese pastries, you’re in for a treat. Japan’s number one cheese cookie confectionery, Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory, has made its way to our sunny island and opened its very first outlet at Raffles City Shopping Centre.

Hailing all the way from Tokyo, Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory is widely known for their luxurious Salt & Camembert Cookies made from the finest ingredients—Hokkaido milk and rare French Guérande salt. The combination of sweet and savoury tones in this melt-in-your-mouth cookie would get you hooked in no time.

Here’s what you can expect from this popular Japanese confectionery’s first outlet in Singapore.

Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory’s cookie range features well-balanced flavours and ingredients that are sourced from different countries.

There are Salt & Camembert Cookies made with rare sea salt from France (S$12.80 for  10 and S$24 for 20); Honey & Gorgonzola made with Rosemary Honey from Spain and veined Italian blue cheese from Gorgonzola Italy (S$14 for 10 and S$26 for 20); and Porcini & Gouda Cookies made with Porcini mushrooms from Italy (S$14 for 10).

Alternatively, if you’re a die-hard milk lover, The Milk Cheese Cake (S$29.50) is another treat to go for. The moist fluffy cake is made with cream cheese from France and blended with Hokkaido fresh cream, along with premium cheese and milk mousse that gives it that rich, luscious flavour and soft texture.

The Milk Cheese Cake is only sold as a whole but one slice is never enough, right?!

Here’s another one of their bestsellers—Strawberry Milk Roll Cake filled with milk and strawberry cream made from sweet and juicy Amaou strawberries and a touch of strawberry jam. This fluffy sponge cake is a perfect teatime snack to share with your friends and family.

Looking for something different? Try their Cow Cow Sundae (S$8.50). This velvety soft serve ice cream is made with the finest ingredients such as cream cheese, rich Jersey milk and gouda cheese from Hokkaido.

The sundae is served in a cup (S$4.50) or a cone (S$5.50) with a piece of Salt & Camembert Cookie and a slice of Milk Cheesecake—the best of Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory all gathered in a cup. What more can we ask for?

Raffles City has many exciting events and activities all year round, but July is the month we always look forward to because of its annual Food Festival. From 11 to 27 July 2014, a series of fun-filled events and promotions awaits you foodies out there.

Raffles City started its Instagram account @RafflesCitySG, and you should follow them not just for the latest feeds, but also because fans of Raffles City get to win 10 prizes daily when you upload a photo on Instagram of your favourite eats at the mall and hashtag #RafflesCityEats together with a geotag of the restaurant.

Wondering where to bring your kids over the weekends? Raffles City may just be your answer. From now till 31 Dec 2014, kids dine for free at participating restaurants on weekends.

Last Saturday, we spent the day at Raffles City with many food enthusiasts on a food trail and had a ball of a time at many good restaurants and eateries in the mall. Raffles City is budding with flavours this July, and here are some restaurants to look out for when you next dine at Raffles City.

BANGKOK JAM

Thai food is something that we can eat all the time. Jam-packed with flavours, Thai food is satisfying and never fails to make our tummies happy. Bangkok Jam, a bistro-styled Thai restaurant, dishes out contemporary Thai cuisine that sets your taste buds in drool.

Some of the must-try dishes include Tom Yum Kung (S$10.50), Phad Thai Talay (S$12.50) and Yang Ruam (S$25) – mixed Grill of chicken, beef short ribs, squid and prawns. If you are meeting your pals at Raffles City and craving for Thai food, Bangkok Jam is the place to head to!

KOPITIAM AT SWISSOTEL

Good ol’ comfort dishes in a cosy seating that overlooks the bustling city; how to not love Kopi Tiam at Swissotel? It is the perfect place to bring overseas guests to try the best of Singapore’s hawker food in a nostalgic and air-conditioned ambience. We recommend the Grilled Stingray in sambal belachan, and Golden Butter Prawn.

Level 2, Swissotel The Stamford

MARCHÉ BAR & BISTRO

Marché Bar & Bistro is an all-purpose venue that is probably the closest to alfresco dining you can get in the city. Sitting at the fringe of the mall, Marché Bar & Bistro is a lovely space to enjoy some good pizza and drinks while enjoying the caress of the soft breeze. Yes, the pizzas that are fresh from the oven and served very warm. The marriage of thin crust with generous toppings makes us linger for more.

PODI

Managed by the folks behind Cedele, PODI serves all-day breakfast and grills; simple, earnest and hearty comfort food you can always rely on. Our picks are the Creamy Prawn & Poached Egg Pasta (S$18) that is not overly rich unlike most cream pasta, and the signature Duck Berry Waffle (S$18) – something so rare in Singapore that everyone should give it a try. PODI is like Cedele, reliable and a joint you can go to regularly for a good meal.

PUTIEN

This local homegrown eatery serves Chinese dishes that are simple yet close to the heart. Families will love its familiarity, and regulars of Putien always go for their signature dishes like the Iced Bitter Gourd and Shredded Meat with Bun. For us, the absolute favourite is their Sweet & Sour Pork with lychee, which is one of the better renditions in town. Else, the Stir-fried Yam is a crowd pleaser too!

ST MARC CAFE

For a quick bite, the Chococro and Little Fuji from St Marc Cafe will do the trick. The former is a crispy croissant filled with chocolate on the inside – we can easily gobble down several croissants on our own – while the latter is a hot buttery Danish served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Only one word to describe it: heavenly!

Gulp down with a Matcha Latte, the Japanese way! St Marc Café originated from Japan and has more than 300 outlets in Japan! Yes, it is that popular and good, we are lucky to have them at Raffles City as another option of choice for quality tea-time snack.

SUFOOD

Taiwan’s largest vegetarian restaurant chain, SuFood offers a refreshing take on vegetarian food. It is a meat-free concept inspired by Italian cuisine, from the quality of ingredients to the dish presentation.

First-timers to SuFood should try the Star Pizza – a star-shaped pizza filled with oyster mushrooms, cream cheese and mustard sauce – which is tasty and very instagram-worthy.

It has always been a challenge to find a good vegetarian restaurant in Singapore that serves delicious and healthy food, but SuFood truly redefines vegetarian dining with their impressive menu.
