Singapore - Japanese Delights @ Sen-Ryo

For today's "Relf Eats Out" post, we shall go to Sen-Ryo, which is quite a premium restaurant serving quality Japanese cuisine. It was recommended by a good friend of mine so the 3 of us decided to try it out. Because it was so popular, getting a dinner reservation was slightly challenging, but eventually, we made it!

There was so much food on the menu, and even though I felt like trying many stuff, there was only limited space for my stomach. The first dish we ordered was Chawanmushi, which was steamed egg with some small bites like prawns and mushrooms. I thought it was quite tasty, definitely would recommend this dish. Simple yet delicious.

This was beef rice, which was decently done. Personally I liked it, not too salty, but with enough flavour. Strong choice for a main dish.

We also tried fried soft shell crab. Personally I am not a fan of crabs, but I thought this was manageable. The oil they used was quite different from other tempura restaurants, because it didn't have a strong oil smell and taste, and I thought the lightly fried version brought out the freshness of the crab. Another thumbs up!

We also tried one of their sushi roll, this is the unagi (eel) one. I like unagi so I have high expectations. But among the dishes, I think this was the least wow. Maybe it's my high expectations, plus the rest of the dishes were quite impressively done. That said, it's still a decent unagi roll and I enjoyed it.

The whole bill came out to around SGD 70 (~USD 54) which was a little on the high side but still reasonably priced, considering the quality and the amount of seafood we ordered. The service was pretty solid, and ambience was good for a dinner with friends. For me, it was a night of good food, but the company was definitely better!
