Shoya

Had dinner at Shoya the week before and boy was it good. the one hat this restaurant has is very well deserved. unlike Red Emperor which I have doubts about whether it should really have a hat at all.

So yes, we had the degustation menu which was bloody awesome. We went with the Chef's “OMAKASE” selection, and at $100/head it wasn't very expensive for the quality and type of food we were having.

First up was the Unagi Canape which usually sells at $12.00/pc. 

Grilled Miso marinated eel canapé topped with crab meat and fragrant French black truffle 

   

 

The truffle was oh-so-bloody good man. and the unagi was really nice and fresh. it was like an explosion of flavour in the mouth. yummmyyyyyyyyy. this was pretty much the highlight for the night. 

Golden Perch $12.00/pc

Lightly grilled Miso flavoured perch topped with tomato mousse, foie gras, and roe of perch

 

This was pretty good too but it was hard to beat the first one. haha.

Assortment of Sashimi 

 

There's salmon, tuna, toro and petit uni (sea urchin).

Wagyu Finger Steak $ 8.50/pc

Petit Wagyu steak wrapped with zucchini topped with foie gras and home made cheese 

 

Alaskan King Crab Tempura

 and this of course, was really really good... which resulted in this......

yes, i am a glutton foodie.

And this, i can't remember what it was.. haha

and finally, the main course which is the Wagyu steak $68

 

yum yum yum...

Kurogoma Panacotta $8.50

Black sesame with panacotta to make smooth pudding covered with nostalgic soy bean and green tea powder

By this point I was already freakin full but the panacotta was sooooo yum tt i just had to finish it! hehehe

So yes, Shoya definitely gets my vote. For me, the entire experience was 7.5/10
