Japanese Dining Ooi

A decade old, this hidden gem of a Japanese kaiseki restaurant remains tucked in a nondescript corner of Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre, frequented by those in the know and regulars who have followed chef Koichi Oi throughout his nearly 17-year culinary career in Singapore. The restaurant keeps its decoration and furnishing to a minimum, preferring to let Oi’s beautiful plates provide the visual thrills. A well-curated selection of rare shochus and premium sake is available to pair with your kaiseki meal. While the shy Oi toils in the kitchen, his affable wife Hiromi works the floor, making diners feel right at home with her warmth and hospitality.
