Omakase @ Tomo Fine Dining, Marina Square
Our visit coincided with that of a dinner party that was organized by Porsche Club Singapore. Needless to say, the restaurant was packed and pretty noisy. However, we got used to the noise level after a bit and didn't really notice it after we'd had something to eat. Its great to share a great meal with friends. Incidentally, "tomo" means "friend" in Japanese and in keeping with its name, the staff were friendly.
Mia told us that Thomas had a shipment of live eel that had just arrived. He'd saved one for us. Here it is freshly killed, cleaned and deboned.
That was followed by Kanpachi (Yellowtail) Belly Sushi. This was interesting but of course it can never rival a Toro as far as richness of flavour goes.
Then came the Toro Sushi! It was richly divine and I savoured every buttery rich bite of it.
It was followed by Unagi (Eel) Sushi, made from the eel that was killed earlier in the evening.
Here's Chef Tay, he made most of our sushi that night.
Here's a pic of Chef Thomas...looking as jovial as ever.
