Tempura Oji looks like a normal eatery on the outside, with just a triangular table for 6 pax with a menu board.

However, beyond the fridge door, you'd be transported to another dimension with dim lighting, chill in the air (aircon is real cold) & thick heavy curtains. What you get is a vibe-y interior (even without music) where you soak in the sounds of cocktails shaking & chatter among the tables.

For ending sweets, we were recommended the Tenkasu S'mores Ice Cream ($16). The s'mores are torched upon order, allowing you to watch the entire caramelisation process of the honey marshmallow coating which leaves your mouth watering. While the exterior stays warm & toasty, the icy cold interior of dark chocolate tenkasu (tempura flakes) & vanilla pod ice cream adds another layer of sweetness with a pinch of saltiness to this dessert. This recommendation was definitely extremely worth it!
