We finally secured a reservation at that place next door to Bistro Étroit (150 Orchard Road #01-37, 9644-2487). The name may state that it's an oyster bar, but it's really a little ten-seater izakaya counter, with plenty of things like gyutan, gindara, karaage, potato salad, and monkfish liver to go into your belly. They had a white mapo tofu too. My favorite was their snow crab legs, served with kanimiso, egg yolk, and nori for you to make little tacos with. They boot you out after a couple of hours to prepare for the next seating though, which is too bad since I was still hungry when I left.
all hype no quality.
ReplyDeleteMe and my wife were hoping for a nice dinner after a recommendation.
We got ignored most of the time, served two small dishes after an hour and a half sitting there.
Yes managed to spend 300 dollars eating oyster that the chef have to sniff and wash in the sink.
Avoid this place.
