I discovered Fukuichi after dining at my favourite ramen place in Singapore1. Since my discovery, I have been there three times. It is among the priciest Japanese places I have been to in Singapore; if it weren’t for the fact that I have yet to discover a reasonably-priced quality Japanese restaurant in Singapore, I probably would not have returned to Fukuichi so many times. Alas.
The sashimi here is good, and the fish is supposedly air flown from Shizuoka, but at these prices, I’d rather go to Fish Mart Sakuraya. What I come for are their non-traditional stuff, like the seared maguro maki rolls and the almond crusted prawn tempura.
Their baked prawn is very tasty, but even more memorable is their grilled black cod with miso paste.
On the less memorable side, their Japanese-style yong tau foo was plain boring. Chicken karaage and tori katsu were standard as well.
Their dinner set bentos are very good value, and I’m told the grilled eel is remarkable.
For dessert, ice cream mochi is on the house, although I did try their peach ice cream, which had a Ferroro Rocher filling. The dessert looked more special than it tasted, but worth trying once.
The prices are quite steep, usually at $60+ per person, excluding alcohol. If you stick to the dinner set bento, you can get away with under $50 a person. The ambiance is a little casual given these prices, but service is consistently attentive. A decent place to splurge on once in a while.
