Many yakiniku restaurants have opened around Singapore in recent months offering Japanese BBQ experience, ranging from affordable selections at coffeeshops to premium and rare meat cuts at full-service restaurants. En Yakiniku is one of the latest yakiniku concepts to be opened in Bugis. It takes over the now-defunct Captain K Seafood Tower.
While waiting for the rest of the group to arrive, we started with some snacks to munch on. We had the Grilled Dried Thread-Sail Filefish ($15.40), Grilled Dried Pufferfish ($15.40) and Deep-fried Sweet Shrimp ($5.40).
Grilled Dried Thread-Sail Filefish and Grilled Dried Pufferfish 4/5
Deep-fried Sweet Shrimp 4/5
The delightful snacks can double up as bar bites to complement the drinks.
Yakitori 3.5/5
Chawanmushi 4.2/5
If you don't have the patience to wait for the meat to be cooked or just want a quick meal, there are several cooked items on the menu, such as Yakitori ($12), Donburi and Chawanmushi ($3.40)
Prime Short Rib, Beef Chuck, Oyster Blade 4.2/5
Beef lovers can look forward to a good variety of cuts at En Yakinkiu. We started with three types of cuts, starting with the US Prime Short Rib ($28.90), US Beef Chuck ($17.90) and Oyster Blade ($17.90).
A4 Wagyu Ribeye, A4 Wagyu Striploin 4.5/5
There are premium cuts, such as the Miyazaki A4 Wagyu Ribeye ($54.90) and Miyazaki A4 Wagyu Striploin ($54.90), for their beautiful marbling, giving it the melt-in-the-mouth texture.
Gyu Tan 4.2/5
The more adventurous can go for the Gyu Tan ($21.90), which has a delightful crunchy texture once grilled.
Chestnut-fed Duroc Pork Belly 4/5
Spanish Pork Jowl 4/5
You need not worry if you are a non-beef eater. The Chestnut-fed Duroc Pork Belly ($15.90) and Spanish Pork Jowl ($15.90) are excellent options that are as satisfying as the beef cuts. In addition, the pork oil from the grilling emits a fragrant aroma enhancing the enjoyment.
Tiger Prawn 4.2/5
We even had Tiger Prawn ($22) from the seafood selection to complete the yakiniku experience at En Yakiniku.
Overall, I enjoyed the food at the En Yakiniku. The pricing and the quality of meats and seafood served it is reasonable. Some may argue that you can find cheaper options. I agree but compare the quality or how thinly these places sliced their meats.
