Fujiyama Dragon Curry

tip: come with a friend and have the all-toppings-curry rice bowl and add on chicken namban so that you get to try all the ingredients they have. the rice bowl comes in quite a big portion and should reasonably feed two average eaters. for dinners, they also offer an option to change your base of rice/multigrain rice to tofu - not currying for any favour (i funny right 😂) but honestly can’t wait to try this already!

thank you carol @caroltee_ and team @fujiyamadragon.sg for having us!

Went with level 2 spice (highest is 5) and it was a nice balance of a mild heat, savouriness and sweetness. The curry itself wasn’t as robust as I would have liked, but still works! Would also recommend the multigrain rice over the white rice as it had a better bite. The all toppings option we had came with a little bit of everything, basically a combination of the other options on the menu - prawns, cheese, egg mayo, crab cream croquette, pork katsu, pork belly and half boiled egg.

Each plate also comes with a cup of paitan soup, meant to be added after you’re almost done to get a more savoury ending with a porridge kind of consistency. Wouldn’t say it’s the best curry but yes, value for money (rice upsize is available too)!

Thank you @fujiyamadragon.sg for having us and @gnohznaij for the invite! 🙆🏻

First things first they've healthier choice options like changing your white rice to brown rice/tofu for free which I appreciate! On top of that, each order comes with a complimentary cup of chicken soup and you can choose the spiciness level from 1 to 5.

I love spicy and I try to choose healthier options so I went for tofu base and level 4 curry. It was not spicy at all - which is terribly disappointing. Pork katsu was normal but there was some chewy thing in it that's alittle challenging to bite and break - could be the skin or fats? Idk. But that was not pleasant and cutlet tasted normal.

Honestly I had above average expectations since this place is new and all but I've to say coco ichibanya's curry rice gives me much more satisfaction.

Setting themselves apart from the many other Japanese curry houses available in Singapore, this outlet serves up paitan soup that allows you to add into your leftover curry and rice, turning it into a porridge-esque dish. Personally didn’t like the soup so I left it aside. The serving isn’t huge, even after a free upsize, so don’t be fooled by the appearance (big bowls seems to be a thing with Japanese restaurants). Decent curry but not great, worth trying if you’re around the area. Shop’s pretty small and cramp, so go solo or bring just a friend along.

All Toppings Wild Curry 🍛 (S$16.80++)
Cheese 🧀 curry 🍛, topped with deep fried pork🐖, crab 🦀 cream croquette, garlic pork 🐖belly, shrimp 🍤, half boiled egg 🥚, minced pork 🐖and chicken 🐓 namban
5 spicy 🌶 levels
2 types of rice 🍚- white/ multi grain

Available at @FujiyamaDragon.Sg
Help yourself to the free flow of roasted barley tea on the table.
The plate looked 👀 rather shallow but the serving turned out to be rather filling.
Most customers ordered level 4 and 5 for the curry. I tried level 1 and 3 which was just hint and acceptable. Help yourself to the chilli powder on the table should you want more kick.
Don’t forget to leave a bit of curry 🍛 rice 🍚 behind to make curry 🍛 porridge by adding the accompanying paitan soup.

Fujiyama Dragon Curry

Fujiyama Curry sets itself apart from the other Japanese curry places in that you’re able to savour your dish in 2 ways. Either as is or mixed with their complimentary Paitan (chicken broth) soup. The portion, looks intimidating because of the bowl that it comes in, but in actual fact once you dig in it’s quite manageable. You are also able to customise the dish by choosing your spicy level and the garnishes it comes in. Overall a good hearty meal, especially during the rainy season to warm your belly and whole being hopefully.

Hailing from Hiroshima, another Japanese eatery has joined the busy food enclave at Orchid Hotel and serves up their rendition of Hiroshima Japanese curry rice.
.
The all toppings option came with a slab of pork tonkatsu, chicken karaage, shabu pork, minced meat, cheese and topped with an onsen egg.
.
Quite value for money given the portion, but I found the assortment of ingredients too fanciful that I got distracted from the curry, decent but didn't left a deep impression.

Replacing defunct Ramyun & Soju at Orchid Hotel, this Japanese curry house from Hiroshima is worth checking out if you're in Tanjong Pagar. The space is rather cramped, so go solo or bring just a friend or two. They offer customised toppings and spice, like many other curry houses out there, but what really sets them apart is the inclusion of paitan soup. Diners are encouraged to add the light broth to any leftover rice and curry, turning it into a porridge-like consistency that is quite comforting. The Deep Fried Chicken Curry ($15.70) is a classic, and one that has Burppler Jianwei Low coming back from his weekly fix. For something different, try the Garlic Pork Belly Curry ($15.70). Sliced thinly, the pork was less garlicky that Burpple Tastemaker Xing Wei Chua expected, but he still enjoyed it for its juiciness. Pro tip: The bowl may look large but don't be deceived, says Xing Wei. The portion is actually good for one.
Avg Price: $20 per person

I love Japanese curry and come here for my weekly fix. Prefer the original as the spicy option kinda loses the essence of curry. Creative way of using chicken broth to clean up d finger linkin good sauce

Garlic Pork Belly Curry ($15.75)

Newly opened @fujiyamadragon.sg ‘s bold statement “if you haven’t tried ours, you haven’t tried tonkatsu curry” unfortunately seems anything but. The curry was interesting with the addition of minced meat but was a tad salty. What’s special here has to be the inclusion of their paitan soup which was to be added to the curry. Not sure I relish the idea of turning my curry rice into a bowl of brown soupy mess. I guess the dragon fell to the monster afterall!

From Fujiyama Dragon Curry at Orchid Hotel — this new Japanese curry house replaces the former grounds of Ramyun & Soju. The menu features quite a variety of Japanese curry dishes, though the main novelty about this place is that Paitan soup is available on the side — patrons at encouraged to pour in the Paitan soup into the remaining curry to enjoy a different taste to their Japanese curry.

Despite the large bowls being used, the portion is actually pretty good for one — the bowls are deceptively large and deep but it's pretty shallow in fact. Actually found this to be not too bad; I quite enjoyed the Japanese curry sauce which carried a hint of sweetness without being too salty; I have opted mine to come "Spicy" and the spiciness felt a but more peppery than one that stems from chili. Mix in the minced pork, spring onions and the sous vide egg into the rice and Japanese curry for a silkier, yet savoury touch — the garlic pork belly is sliced pretty thinly; not quite as garlicky as I expected but were pretty juicy and carried a hint of sweetness even. Not sure if I actually poured in enough Parian soup in to mix everything up (halfway through I was actually a little confused if it was water or Paitan Soup due to the lack of labeling of the stuff on the table), but I must say I did like the Japanese curry pretty much on its own. It's decent an option to check out if Tanjong Pagar is your 'hood.

Fujiyama Dragon Curry

Savory Japanese curry rice with a variety of ingredients including chicken karaage, pork katsu, prawns, pork belly, croquette and half boiled egg.

Believe it or not, the first winner was a fine young slender man who finished 2kg in mere 4.5mins 😱 Respect much 👍🏻
.
Anyway they’ve recently revamped their menu! Diners can now expect switching up their white rice/multigrain rice to tofu! Available only during dinner time ☺️
.
P.S. Pouring in the paitan soup to enhance the flavour. They recommend pouring this at the end instead for curry porridge consistency but this was very good too!

Reminiscent of the curry houses in Japan, Fujiyama has limited seatings (both outdoors and indoors) posters of nonsensical quotes and queer visuals; the beauty of the Japanese culture that makes something weird, cool. In terms of the menu, this is your go-to comfort food with dishes such as the Cheese Curry ($15.70), which is essentially the basic Fujiyama Dragon Curry that comes with minced pork and an onsen egg but upgraded with a layer of torched cheese. If you are in for more, there’s also the deep fried pork cutlet to satisfy your meat cravings. Is this the best that I’ve eaten? Probably not, but as a comfort food, it ticks all the boxes.
