Nestled in the cosy confines of Orchid Hotel along Tanjong Pagar Road, Tempura Udon by Mizuya may not have the widespread fame of larger Japanese restaurant chains, but it certainly holds its own with quality tempura, fresh sashimi and delicious dishes. Returning here was a delightful experience, reaffirming its status as a gem for Japanese food. Hyogo Fresh Oyster 4.5/5 We began our dinner with the fresh Hyogo Oysters ($12 for 2pcs). These oysters were impressively large, plump, briny, and creamy, offering a delightful start to our meal. Mix Sashimi Platters 4.5/5 Next, we indulged in the Mix Sashimi Platters ($35), which featured four kinds of fresh and thickly cut sashimi. The quality of the sashimi was outstanding, and I was thoroughly impressed by the freshness and richness of each slice. Mix Tempura Udon 4.5/5 The highlight of our dinner was the Mix Tempura Udon ($18). The bouncy and chewy udon noodles came in a light, refreshing, and flavorful dashi soup. The accompanying plate of tempura was coated in a light and crispy batter, making each bite a perfect combination of texture and taste. Salmon Sashimi 4.8/5 Currently, the restaurant is running a promotion where any order of Tempura or Donburi Set entitles you to purchase Salmon Sashimi at one dollar per piece (maximum 5 pieces). Despite being a promotional item, the quality of the salmon sashimi was not compromised. Each piece was fat and thickly cut, offering a melt-in-the-mouth experience that was truly satisfying. Shake Aburi Don 4/5 We concluded our meal with the Shake Aburi Don ($23). Its vibrant presentation is reminiscent of the Chinese Yusheng. After giving the bowl of ingredients a good toss, the different textures and flavours came together beautifully, creating a delicious and harmonious mouthful with each bite. Tempura Udon by Mizuya is a delightful spot for those seeking quality Japanese cuisine in a cosy setting. The fresh Hyogo Oysters, impressive Mix Sashimi Platters, delectable Mix Tempura Udon, and the well-executed Shake Aburi Don are standout dishes that showcase the restaurant's commitment to quality. Don't miss out on their promotional Salmon Sashimi - it's an incredible deal for such high-quality sashimi. Tempura Udon by Mizuya is definitely worth a visit for an authentic and satisfying Japanese dining experience. Note: This is an invited tasting.
