Izakaya Style


Pub food in Japan is at least a notch if not two notches above your average Western pub grub (except for gastropubs, but they don’t count as pubs in my eyes). Singapore, like Vancouver, is pretty big on Japanese food, hence the plethora of izakayas. One of my favourites is Shunjuu Izakaya (http://www.shunjuu.com ) in Robertson Quay.



It’s a combo that’s hard to beat: refreshing, crisp Japanese beers, alfresco dining and inventive skewers char-grilled to perfection. Highlights included melt in your mouth ox tongue, surprisingly flavoursome chicken with basil, tender iberico pork neck and wagyu beef steak. Vegetarians don’t despair; the veggie options were delicious too – particularly the stuffed mushrooms.
