Most people describe this place known for their custard puffs on burppler. But I was curious since tamagoyaki means grilled egg!
I finally figured out that there are three ways to order tamagoyaki - ala carte, bento and value bento.
Ala carte is a combi of 6 pieces of tamagoyaki with a protein - karaage, Kani, unagi, char siu etc. the amazing thing is you can ZENG your tamagoyaki with cheese or mentaiko for $2.90!! And you can’t do that with the bento sets (at least not stated on the menu).
Bento comes with a protein, tamagoyaki and mushroom rice while super value bento comes with TWO proteins, tamagoyaki and mushroom rice. (Goes up to $14-15) my only grumble is where are the vegetables in the bento?? Can’t be a balanced diet if you only have protein and carbs and no fibers..
Of course, the best value of all is burpple’s offer of fry-yay bento for just $8!! Great if you’re looking for a full meal.
For me, I just wanted a snack so I got the unagi tamagoyaki zeng-ed with cheese (YAY 😋). The unagi was seasoned just the right touch of sweetness and grilled with a little caramelized char!! And it went surprisingly well with my cheesy tamagoyaki. Which was amazingly soft and the cheese was melty! Also, it is still tasty after you reheat it in the microwave! 👍🏼
Can’t wait to try more variations and the mushroom rice!!
Along with the signature tamagoyaki, there's also 2 pieces of chicken karaage (mine had 3 though 😁), 1 croquette and 1 tempura ebi served on a bed of umami mushroom rice. Do be prepared to wait for 10-15 min (depending on the crowd too) as the ingredients are freshly prepared and deep fried upon order. Though sinful, the variety of deep fried elements were done to a crisp and well breaded exterior. The chicken karaage was tender and succulent whereas the tempura ebi was fresh and juicy, with a panko crusted crisp exterior. The croquette too as well, had a golden brown exterior down to perfect crispness, withholding smooth, creamy mash within. Along with fluffy and subtly sweet Japanese pan fried omelette (aka tamagoyaki), the mushroom rice was flavourful with a pleasant earthy note, comprising of shimeiji mushrooms embedded within. .

A grab and go, bento/cream puff vendor. Tried the karage bento ($9.5). The mushroom rice (think that was the name) was lowkey flavored, karaage is juicy and crispy, the eggs were silky, the pickles give some sweetness to it. 4/5
Koki Tamagoyaki at the basement of Raffles City Shopping Centre is the first kiosk in Singapore to specialize in tamagoyaki (to my knowledge). There are various toppings and you can add Mushroom rice to make it a meal. Koki Tamagoyaki also sells Shuu by Koki, a Japanese choux puff that is available in 5 flavors. Please read my review at www.hungryghost.sg
The Japanese omelette is fluffy and perfectly cooked. I'll definitely be back for more!
