Arrive early and ask for a counter seat to see
Sushi Kou
’s
owner-chef Koda Naokatsu prepare some of the most
affordable
omakase
sets ($50, $80 or $100) in town. The
sets are said to showcase the best and freshest of what’s
available on the day, and no two meals are likely to be
the same. After a nice little starter, our $80 menu leant
heavily towards fish: various sashimi (shown here); a tiny,
seasonal “sweet fish”, grilled; spring onion tempura; braised
cooper fish; sushi with miso soup; and a yummy little frozen
chocolate ganache. Grate your own fresh wasabi, enjoy the
complimentary pickled cucumber, cherry tomatoes and
seaweed, and congratulate yourself having eaten such a
healthy meal. One of a strip of newish Japanese eateries
on Tanjong Pagar Road, Sushi Kou also offers set lunches
from $16 (or $25 with sashimi).

VEG OUT
Sufood
, the newest vegetarian restaurant in town, made a
splash when it opened by setting a Guinness World Record
for preparing the greatest number of pizzas in 12 hours. How
many did they make? 3,574, to be exact: nearly five pizzas
every minute. The fare is Italian-inspired (with a little Asian
fusion), and the food is priced to move ($25 for eight courses).
