From the Burpple community

the dish that stole the show was the Buta Kashira ($24), or Iberico Pork Jowl. The pork jowl is packed with flavour and it is so soft it almost melts in my mouth. The edamame on the side has a smokey edge which complemented grilled the pork jowl.

The Chirashi Don ($28.90) comes with a good variety of seafood and it was pretty good and fresh.

Serving a wide array of Donburis and Premium Omakase, @gyosensg is helmed by 2 chefs with over 30 years of experience each; One was previously from Chirashi King Kong and the other from House of Chirashi! That explains the slight similarity in plating, as well as the delicious earthy mushroom rice specially unique to @gyosensg!

Here’s what we enjoyed

👉Salmon Mentai Don - SGD21.90
👉Chirashi Don - SGD28.90
👉Anago Chawanmushi
👉Truffle Edamame
👉Yuzu & Goma Ice Cream
👉SaSa Noha
Japanese Mochi w Hokkaido Cream Custard, wrapped in bamboo leaves

Affordably priced, all the Donburis here are served with a bed of their house-special mushroom rice and guess what? You can enjoy this in 2 ways! Eat the mushroom rice on its own first before mixing all the condiments at the side together for another new flavour explosion. Highly recommend getting their Salmon Mentai Don if it’s your first time visiting. Pretty sure this won’t be the last time here


For the complete experience with desserts, go for their SaSa Noha which was surprisingly impressive, though I’ve to admit it was quite pricey.

The rice really made all the difference for me.

Tucked away in a quiet corner at Fortune Centre level 3, Gyosen is a gem of a find - offering up both a premium Omakase menu and crowd-pleasing ala carte dishes. Totally diggin’ my order of Gyosen Sashimi Rice Bowl ($25.90), I love the flavoured rice which was seasoned with tobiko, truffle, and Sakura-ebi. A lovely array of sashimi and torched slices, the Scallops, Salmon, Tuna, Amberjack, Seabream, sweet Uni, and briny Ikura were also fresh-tasting. Just right, the portion was good for one in my opinion (maybe not so much for big-eaters). And I really really enjoyed how the umami and slightly earthy bed of rice added that oomph to the freshness of the proteins.

Newly opened Japanese restaurant in Fortune Centre. Enjoyed the variety of fresh and high quality sashimi cuts. Served atop flavourful Japanese rice seasoned with tobiko, truffle, and Sakura-ebi.

We had three variations - gyosen sashimi rice bowl ($25.90), sashimi rice bowl ($18.90), and bara chirashi ($15.90). We found the higher value bowls more worth it for the slightly larger portion of sashimi and higher quality cuts, creamy uni (in gyosen), and fresh wasabi (unlike the mild ‘fake’ one in the bara).

Overall decent bowls worth trying at the current opening promo price (be quick - they mentioned the prices will go up in ~2 weeks time)! While we loved the flavour of the rice, it was a tad mushy and clumpy. The portion of sashimi is on the smaller side so might not be filling enough for larger eaters.

Heard a little about the new Gyosen at Fortune Centre — having been out of the area for a couple of months made me forget how Fortune Centre is like an enclave for hidden Japanese F&B establishments. Occupying the space of two units in Fortune Centre, Gyosen is a Japanese fine dining establishment that primarily does premium Omakase in its main shop space. With another space being just situated across their main shop unit, this other unit is simple a dine-in area; food preparation is done within the main shop unit that serves Omakase meals. That being said, Gyosen does serve up a separate menu in the purely dine-in unit; the ala-carte menu comprises of appetisers, sushi/sashimi platter, as well as a DonBuri (i.e. Rice Bowl Dish) menu. For those who are interested to dine-in for their DonBuri menu, it is noted that the shop space only accommodates for one table of 6 pax, and two tables of 4 pax each.

Skimming through the DonBuri menu here, it is needless to say that the Barachirashi was the item that caught our attention. Essentially being a sashimi bowl that comes with an assortment of cubed, marinated sashimi, the Barachirashi here is actually pretty satisfying for its price tag of $15.90 (subject to service charge of 10%). While the cubed sashimi were considered to be pretty fresh and came in a good size and portion that allows a bit of fish with every morsel of rice, we were more impressed with the use of flavoured rice — a little surprising to us considering that flavoured rice is a rare find that only a select few places would choose to serve up. Served slightly below room temperature, we liked how the rice didn’t carry an odd temperature contrast with the assorted cubed sashimi above it, but we really loved how it does come with bits of truffle, Sakura Ebi and Ikura for a really umami mix of flavours with a bit of textural contrast. Also coming with pickled ginger and wasabi as per most other Barachirashi served at other Japanese establishments, the former gave a refreshing crunch that resets the taste buds from all the cubes of marinated sashimi here, while the wasabi was surprisingly stinging here that makes the entire bowl pretty “shiok”.

The highlight at Gyosen is probably still their Omakase; that being said, offering an affordable DonBuri menu with most of the items priced between $12.90 to $18.90 (the only exception to this is the Gyosen Sashimi Rice Bowl at $25.90) before service charge does provide them with an edge — ultimately, these are the items that the busy office folks around the area would probably settle for a fuss-free lunch or dinner, while the Omakase will probably appeal to a niche audience that would make a purposeful trip here just to give them a try. Service was pretty attentive despite us being located in the shop unit across the main unit — the staff did notice us and came out to refill our hot green tea even though we were the only patrons seated in the said area. With a menu that caters to different audiences, Gyosen is a spot that likely adds to that odd mix of tenants within Fortune Centre that makes this building so unique despite its age and location.
