Headed down to Shinryoku Yakitori (8 Purvis Street) for dinner with Jerry and Shan yesterday. We were only 3 out of the 6 people who were supposed to show up, but that is another story altogether.
Shinryoku serves up a pretty decent ala carte, all-you-can-eat, Japanese yakitori menu for S$38++ from Mondays to Thursdays. The place was relatively packed last night given that it was a Thursday. We wasted no time and placed our orders.
So what’s good here? The bacon-wrapped asparagus, straw mushrooms and prawns are definitely worth your while, as the bacon really gives you a bang for your buck. For some great BBQ flavour, you have to try their miso cod and surume squid. If you like crispy stuff, the deep fried chicken skins are strongly recommended. Chicken spare-part lovers will be pleased to know that they serve chicken liver, heart and gizzard off the grill. Be sure to also order some of them cold and crunchy vegetable sticks to douse the BBQ flames within you. Last but not least, sink your teeth into their oyster tempura, which is simply… bursting with goodness.
Those who didn’t show up don’t know what they were missing.
