Spicy Lobster Triple Chirashi ($23.8++)
Thanks to the Thomson East Coast Line Phase 2 Opening, it is much
convenient to explore more food in the Thomson area. TE8 Upper
Thomson is definitely a go-to place for the variety of
eateries.
Omoté is a Japanese restaurant that opened since 2015 at Thomson Plaza
and has only one single outlet in Singapore. This was actually our 2nd
visit to Omoté, after giving up waiting during our 1st visit. We
underestimated its popularity and thought of walking-in for the first time
but discovered a super long queue just right after it opened at 17:30 and
decided to eat
Hajime Tonkatsu & Ramen
instead. I would strongly recommend to make reservation online at its
official website in advance to secure a seat. Currently, booking slots are
open for the following 14 days and usually ran out fast for weekend
slots.
We were amazed by the serving speed notwithstanding the crowd and tons of
takeaway/delivery orders. Went for the Spicy Lobster Triple Chirashi which came with the usual
chirashi topping of raw sashimi/tuna etc. + lobster mixed with a spicy
mayo-like sauce. To be honest, apart from the delicious Japanese rice,
it did not taste as good as it sound. Some of the sashimi did not taste
very fresh and the sauce overpowered the lobster. It reminded me of
canned seafood mayo.
The dark horse was the unassuming "Local Favourite" Prawn Ramen ($18.8++) with premium lunch set
($8++). The Prawn Ramen comes with seasoned pork slices, 72-hour prawn stock and Tokyo
Ramen. The broth was rich and gratifying, very much comparable to Le Shrimp Ramen. The premium lunch set comprised of 6 different small cold/hot sides which
could be something to consider if you are looking for a fuller
meal.
Would I return again? For the variety of items, it's a yes.
