Be the first to Reply4 times! That's the amount of time I've been here.
Let me start by saying, this is one of the first really fell in love with Sushi. It's like a theatre, they do all their slicing of fish, showing their extraordinary skills of knife. Been to other high end restaurants and most of the time the fish is pre-sliced which I totally understand. Here, they make sure they do everything in front of you, the preparation, slicing the fish. The hot dish are of course done in the kitchen and brought out. Well timed for every food course. The taste is 10/10. Tips: Choose only counter seat to get the full experience, you will be missing out on 50% if the Enjoyment if you take a table seat! I have shared some photos for your reference !
Be the first to ReplyLoved the Kama! Sushi was superb.
Was not a long wait. Location is not ideal- in a mall. But judging by the line that formed after we got there, clearly a fan favorite. . Great options for sushi but you need to try the Kama (yellow tail collar) soooo good!
Be the first to ReplyA few things about Shinji, simplified:1) Shinji is not even
A few things about Shinji, simplified:1) Shinji is not even close to a michelin star Ginza restaurant. This is important, as other diners made ridiculous requests, such as :Wasabi in soysauce, ginger in soysauce, SPICY MAYO, LESS RICE.What the heck?2) Based off point 1, don't come in here expecting a ginza experience. The itamaes won't deliver that based off the audience that dines. That being said, the atmosphere is much more fun and relaxed then high end sushi-ya.3) The sushi is good, flown in fresh from Japan. Because of the travel involved, it does command a higher price then Tokyo. They actually have someone pick out the fish from the fish market then send it off to Singapore, very neat.4) I did get to try some really good sushi that you won't see at Ginza restaurants. So all in all, its expensive with a nice variety of fish, but not a great experience.

Came here for the $125 sushi set for a special occasion on a Saturday lunch about a year ago. Service was incredible, with the chef explaining what he was serving with its Japanese names (and English names upon request). The sushi was fresh, and the uni especially was delicious. A server unobtrusively monitored and changed our cup of green tea every time it stopped steaming! The restaurant owner even stopped by to make conversation with us. The husband, who is an edomae sushi fan, left beaming.

The chef forgot about me towards the end of my omakase when other patrons started being seated and I constantly had to flag down a waitress to fill my tea and to also pour my expensive Shinji-branded sake into our carafe (since there is nowhere on the counter that they could put it, they had it next to them). I don't think the waitresses were Japanese either, they sounded Singaporean which doesn't feel as authentic unfortunately unlike other top spots in the city.I hate giving bad reviews to places that give a lot of joy to a lot of people but this was my second straight disappointing and frustrating experience at a Shinji property. You're spending a lot of money to have that perfect omakase experience from beginning to end and personally, I did not. Some pieces of sushi were even fishy tasting to me and the cooked stuff as a whole was just okay. It's a chain to me these days and I'm truly not a fan of Japanese restaurants where the head chef is rarely there to put his heart, passion and artistry into each course for you. You spend this kind of money for their own personal craft and although some 3 Michelin Star sushi restaurants around the world do this too (Masa in NYC comes to mind), the chef is almost always actually there. To each their own, however, and I understand Shinji probably has the grandest name for sushi in Singapore so definitely check it out if you are omakase hopping around Singapore as much as I do.The good - the restaurant space in the St. Regis is absolutely beautiful. One of my favorites of any restaurant.
Be the first to ReplyFor me, the most amazing 2.
5 hours spent in Singapore was at Shinji by Kanesaka. I enjoyed it even more than the crazy shopping scene there. And just for Shinji, I'm willing to go back, tough out the crazy heat/humidity and giant mosquito bites just to eat here again.Shinji is located inside the St. Regis hotel on Tanglin Road. Its façade is clean, simple, unassuming, yet extremely elegant--very typical Japanese décor. When you walk in, a bevy of beautiful Japanese waitresses dressed in kimonos greet you and show you to your seat. This is a small restaurant with about 14-16 seats at the counter, and one standalone table for 2 so chances are you will be seating at the counter so you can chat with the sushi chefs.Shinji has a small menu with 3-set courses: Tsuki (a 12-piece set - $125 Sing), Yuki (a 14-piece set - $185 Sing) and Yume (omakase special w/ about 14-16 pieces/dishes - $250 Sing). I of course had the Yume because I am a piggy. Also, keep in mind there will be several additional surcharges tacked onto your bill. Singapore charges a premium when it comes to fine dinning. For 2 people with 2 omakase and non-alcoholic drinks, we paid around $800 Sing so don't be shocked when you see all the surcharges. Also, there is a 10% service charge so tipping is optional. However at this kind of establishments and their impeccable level of service, these waitresses really do deserve an additional tip so don't be one of those stingy Asians!Since the menu changes frequently, there's no point for me to rate each of the dishes I had. Just trust the chefs that whatever you eat there is sure to be amazing.

Chef Kikuchi-San is amazing and I always ask for him whenever I dine here.
