It’s that time of the year to reunite with loved ones and usher in prosperity and abundance as we celebrate the Year of the Rabbit 🥳

The colourful tradition of lo hei brings together families and friends during Chinese New Year, when everyone gathers around the table to toss yusheng. Luckily for me who have Muslim friends, I got my Yusheng from @heisushi the first halal Japanese belt sushi restaurant in Singapore (from the same people of @sakaesushisg ).

This Spring Yusheng consist of
Fresh Salmon Sashimi, White Radish, White Ginger, Red Ginger, Brown Melon, Carrot, Green Radish, Lettuce, Jellyfish, Candied Lime, Peanuts, Sesame Seeds and Pok Chui Crackers in Yu Sheng Plum Sauce. Very refreshing with the addition of jellyfish for more flavour.

Now I can toss with my Muslim friends and spread the joy and huat.

Unagi Donburi
Feature thicker sliced chunks unagi, which allows to taste the natural flavour of the eel meat more. Every bite is heaven to bite into the beautifully char smoky sweet skin & then the tender plumpness within. Highly recommended!

Best. Unagi. Ever. With such a great dining experience, I am very sure I will be back again soon.

I love unagi but it's difficult to find unagi that’s both high-quality & affordable. Been hearing much about Man Man & finally tried this game changer unagi speciality restaurant! Upon entering, can see live eels in tanks and is cook on demand. Also able to watch the chef grill the eel behind glass.

I got the Hitsumabushi, which is a special Nagoya-style unadon that allows diner to enjoy unagi in 4 different ways! Each portion features a bed of rice topped with thickly sliced pieces of unagi. A small pitcher of dashi broth, a plate of pickles, & a plate of condiments containing strips of seaweed, chopped spring onion & fresh wasabi. Before tuck in, first, divide the portion of unagi into four sections.

First way: Eat it on its own.
Scoop out the first portion of unagi with rice & savour the charcoal-crisp unagi on its own. I was blown away at first bite as it practically melt in my mouth with a heavenly richness, accompanied by a deep smoky char aroma. This is real unagi not the usual dull and flat tasting eel!! The tare was on point, striking the right balance of sweetness & savoury without covering the unagi natural flavour.

Second way: Mix in the condiments.
Scoop out the second portion, mix in half of the condiments, top off with some freshly grated wasabi and give it a good mix. Unlike the usual harsh wasabi paste you get outside, their freshly wasabi has a smoother texture & provides a kick to the unagi. The fun part here is that I get to grind my own wasabi!

Third way: Pour in the Dashi stock
Scoop the third portion into the bowl and pour in the dashi broth. Let the rice soak for a minute. The simple dashi broth is a game changer. The light tasting broth gradually absorbs the oil in the unagi and the tare, creating an incredibly flavourful, sweet & hearty concoction.

Fourth way: Devour the last portion however you like!
I like the third way the most, because it really allows me to relish the taste of the unagi.

Ebi Mentaiyaki Kaisendon.
come brimming with variety of cubed sashimi which includes Salmon, Tuna & Yellowtail, Octopus, Cucumber, lastly garnish with Chuka Wakame, Tobiko, Ikura, Sesame seeds, Wasabi & Sushi Ginger. I literally drool at the sight of it & can tell that it would taste as impressive & remarkable as it looked.

Also come with juicy sweet fresh prawn sear with mentaiko for that creamy umami & smoky flavour topped with ebiko that make me go speechless.

The cubed sashimi are super fresh & silky with the different texture of wakame & octopus brings it to another level. Gosh, seafood really couldn't get any fresher than this! Really enjoy both the bowl that are packed with flavours of the sea from the sashimi to the mentaiko sauce, making each bite delectable.

There are actually four ways to enjoy the bowl. One of the method is just eat as it is with mouthful of pearly Japanese rice couple with the ingredients. Another method is mix it with chilli powder & mayonnaise for the creamy mouthful. Third is using the big piece of Nori provided to make own California hand roll & lastly fourth is pour the soup of the day into the half-eaten rice bowl & enjoy it like a warm bowl of porridge.

The price point surely is a steal, & can be rest assured that they will not shortchange as they are very generous with their ingredients especially each bowl had a good amount of fresh sashimi.

Ondeh Tart ($8)
Made with fresh Coconut Milk, Pandan Juice & Gula Jawa. This adorable tart sees a handmade pandan jelly turtle gummy & toasted coconut flakes sitting atop pandan custard & gula jawa. Make to look like a turtle sunbathing on a beach. So cute!! The silky pandan custard has a strong pandan fragrance, while the gula jawa thick with a toasty toffee-like aroma. The coconut flakes added crunch, contrasting against the other elements of this tart.
