When I stepped into Puri-Puri, I was struck by the beauty of the interior design. It's quaint, quirky, don't know what theme this is but it felt cosy and welcoming. The furnishing was eclectic - some benches, some chairs, big and some tables, some wood, some iron. It was busy inside but did not feel cluttered or cramped.

We can also call chef-owner Greg ☎ 9107 5908 and let him fix us an omakase meal of off-menu dishes.

Greg started us off with a Sashimi Moriawase (price $68). In the box, there were Madai (snapper), Hotate (scallop), Salmon, Hamachi (amberjack fish), Otoro (fatty belly of Tuna), and Uni Bodou (sea grape seaweed).

We enjoyed everything in the Sashimi Moriawase - fresh and good quality fish beautifully prepared and presented.
View this post on Instagram Umi Budo or sea grape seaweed from Okinawa, Japan. Nice poppy crunch to the bite which releases gushes of briny savoury watery juice. Interesting novelty that adds a bit of spark to the meal. Read more 👉https://johorkaki.blogspot.com/2020/10/puri-puri-sg-beyond-japanese-rice-bowls.html

The beer promotion came with complimentary Tori Karaage (fried boneless chicken thigh). I love the golden brown crisp outside and the nice savoury sweet flavour of the tender juicy chicken inside.

Grilled Ayu Sweetfish (price $22 each). Simply salted, grilled and served. The white meat was very soft, slightly moist, sweetish balanced with toasty taste from the browning and a hint of salt. There was a subtle underlying earthly taste.
