Chef Masuyama’s masterpiece is the Signature Shokado-9 ($44++), a 9-course symphony of small bites that intricately paint a colourful and immersive narrative, inspired by his diverse travelling experiences. The Signature Shokado-9 is available on all courses.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Shokado-9 which teased our palates through a diverse range of flavours present in each of the 9 small bites.

(5) Sushi Kawasemi

Named after the elegant Kingfisher, Sushi Kawasemi is a cosy 14-seater omakase restaurant which takes pride in custom fish ageing, a process which breaks down the enzymes and fibres in the fish, removes moisture while retaining its fats, resulting in greater tenderness and umami of the fish. Driven by the pursuit of precision to bring diners the finest catch of each season with an unwavering dedication to quality, they import high-quality, seasonal catches to the restaurant as frequent as 4 times a week.
On the lunch menu, choose from 3 courses- Nigiri Sushi Course ($98++), Akebono ($148++), Asahi ($248++), featuring various delights such as chawanmushi, premium nigiri sushi and sashimi. Add-on options such as Kawasemi’s Signature Dish (Binchotan-seared Wild Otoro) $65++ are also available.
We had the mid-tier course- Akebono ($148++) 14-course menu which includes chawanmushi, 2 sashimi, appetiser, cooked dish, 9 pieces nigiri sushi, tamagoyaki with soup and ice-cream. First up was shirako and chawanmushi in ponzu foam, we were pleasantly surprised by the smooth and tender shirako in a steamed egg dish, the shirako was not fishy at all. It was our first time having aged fish and we were impressed by the umami and depth of flavours packed in the kue sashimi (longtooth grouper), it was aged with dried kelp for 11 days.
Savour delicate fishes sourced from all over Japan such as (L-R) shiotama from Miyazaki, kuromutsu (bluefish) smoked with yuzu kocho, and tender Aji (mackerel). If you are concerned about a strong lingering aftertaste from the aged fishes, rest assured as housemade pickled ginger are served on the side, simply pick up a slice and refresh your palate in between dishes.
On the dinner menu, Sushi Kawasemi recently launched a sushi-centric 18-course omakase dinner ($188++) featuring an appetiser, kanpyo temaki, 14 pieces nigiri sushi, tamagoyaki, miso soup and dessert.
