Barashi-Tei New Menu - Foie Gras Sushi

New Menu Sharing Time. Do you remember Barashi-Tei? They have great quality offerings and pocket friendly prices. Today I am going to share with you some of the new items that they have.

Deep Fried Soft Shell Crab ($12.80), It remained crisp to bite even though we took awhile for photo taking and chatting around. It does not have the oily taste as many of the other soft shell crab dishes I've had before.

Ika Kabayaki ($16.80), This is a beautifully grilled squid which i did not get to try due to my allergy however I heard great response from my fellow diners that it was not over done and not rubbery.

Unagi Don ($18.80) came with a HUGE piece of Unagi on a bed of delicious Japanese rice. The unagi tasted fresh and was grilled evenly. Due to the size of the unagi, you can be sure that there is enough unagi in every mouthful to finish this bowl of goodness.

Chawanmushi Buddies, Chawanmushi ($4.80) & Ikura chawamushi ($6.80), the only dilemma will be whether to get the one with or without salmon roe. Haha. Popping goodness in your mouth.

Let's go on a roll with the beautifully crafted Unagi Salmon Mentai Maki ($14.80) or the Spicy Salmon Maki ($14.80). I personally love the Spicy Salmon Maki more due to the special kick from the special sauce and the tempura prawn wrapped within.

Highlight of the night, Foie Gras sushi ($15.80 for 2 piece) I was introduced to foie gras many years back and i still love it till date. The foie gras sushi from Barashi-Tei was thick and deliciously creamy in every mouthful.

For the friends out there who are looking for value for money sashimi, the Moriawase 12 piece ($28) from Barashi-Tei will definitely be worth every penny.

Something for the Nabe Lovers, Fresh Salmon Head Hotpot Ishikari Nabe Set ($18.80) is a unique twist on the normal type of Japanese hotpots that we know of. The fresh broth is loaded with vermicelli, Wakame, Mushrooms and tofu. 

No visit to Barashi-Tei would be complete without ordering a serving of their Homemade Tamagoyaki ($5). It has the perfect blend of eggy flavour and sweetness. I would say that it is juicy too, I'm really not good at describing the texture but you will have to try this for yourself!

First Homemade Tamago experience at Barashi-Tei

New Japanese Store is opened in Dhoby Ghaut area!

Founder and Chef, Mr Wang Zhen Feng is proud to present Barashi-Tei, his new Japanese restaurant which serves only dishes made with freshest ingredients from Japan. With an able team in the kitchen and a head chef with more than 30 years of experience in Japanese cuisine, this is one Japanese restaurant to take note of.

We started off the Japanese Food Night with an Avocado Salmon Salad($13.80). Creamy goodness from the Avocado gave this salad a pretty interesting texture on my palette.

Sashimi Salad ($13.80)

My favourite Maki of the night is the Spicy Salmon Maki($12.80). Super Shiok with crispy Tempura Prawn and Torched Salmon!

HIGHLIGHT OF THE POST - Homemade Yaki Tamago ($5)

Don't judge it by it's appearance, this the the best $5 you'll ever spend on!

The homemade Tamago Yaki retains the natural eggy yellow, not those overly Yellow type you see outside. and the burnt bits rolled in together makes each piece unique on it's own!

This beautiful little Garden is the Rice Paper Ebi Maki($10.80) from Barashi-Tei. A really good option for the carbs consious friends.

Between the Chirashi Don ($23.00) and the Bara Chirashi Don($13.80), I prefer the latter cos easier to dig in! Haha. All chopped up for my convenience to just dig in after a photo taking session. Hehe. However, I must say that the Chirashi Don have really thick slices of fishes. Worth it la for $23!

I super super love this Kurama Ebi ($7.80). The generous sprinkle of the golden brown fried garlic added so much flavour and texture to this. I can finish it on my own omg! The Wasabi Ebi ($7.80) did not impress, maybe due to the lack of the wasabi kick.

Very shocking dish to be served at a Japanese Restaurant. The Sirloin Steak with Foie Gras ($19.80) was not impressive.

Oyster loving friends, rejoice! Barashi Tei is bringing the grilled oyster to a whole new level, by wrapping them with BACON! Yes ! Charred and oily goodness, the Oyster Bacon Kushi ($3.80) is a delightful snack to go with your Japanese Beer!

Gindara Nabe ($24)

End the day with Japanese Flavoured Ice Cream is at $5 each. Flavours range from Matcha to Black Sesame and Yuzu and more! Check out their dessert menu la! 

Overall I had a great time at Barashi Tei.

Please visit them to try out the TAMAGO and the Kurama Prawn and the Spicy Salmon Maki!
