Inagiku Japanese Restaurant @ Raffles City Shopping Centre (again!)

Christmas time! Love Christmas time! So does Cutie. He likes the Christmas tree at home.


We visited the refurbished Inagiku at Fairmount Hotel (previously known as Raffles the Plaza)recently.

The new place is definitely more sleek and cool, with lots of dark wood and warm lighting.
The food is also more innovative.

Unfortunately I haven't had a very good appetite. So I didn't order much.


This is my unagi baked in cheese and gingko nuts (SGD25). A bit odd on the palate really. fish and cheese is a very funny combination.



DH ordered the Inagiku set.


The starter arrived in a laquer basket and looked really pretty. He said it was quite nice.




His sashimi was fresh.




His fish and mushroom soup which I didn't try.



His 3 slices of wagyu beef cooked on a leaf over a hot flame. I stole one slice, and it was very tender and tasty. The miso paste was a little salty though.


His lobster tasted a little too robust for me, but he seemed to like it, judging by the swiftness with which it was demolished.



Cutie came too. He had a chawanmushi, and then ran off to play with a new friend. He's trying to say "cheese" - japanese style.
