Otowa at Cuppage

I had been wanting to try Otowa for some time after a friend's recommendation, but never managed to get down to it until recently, unfortunately after Tan Hsuen Yun discovered (and started posting about) the place. So I thought I'd better hotfoot it down before hordes of hungry Singaporeans did. It's one of those places that has no English name, and looks fairly intimidating if you're not a Japanese. Only 10 bar seats available.

The amuse bouche - konnyaku, some veggies and a bit of squid.
We ordered chicken cartilege - I love this dish so much.
We had chicken wings which were really nicely done - crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.
My doctor friend ordered a very unhealthy stick of chicken skin.
The healthy finance person ordered a salad
Raw octopus salad
Same unhealthy doctor ordered chicken backsides.
Tofu - not very exciting at all.
The chicken was good quality - fresh, moist and cooked through.
Tsukune with chicken cartilege minced inside. yay!
Seaweed salad that looked a bit odd I thought
Unhealthy doctor ordered pig stomach.
Mushrooms - these were very enjoyable.
Same unhealthy doc ordered chicken hearts.
Kurobota pork, which was tender and flavourful.
And the cold korean noodles at the end were the best - I love the texture.
Really chewy noodles.
It's on the 3rd floor of Cuppage Plaza. Can't recall the exact address, and can't find it on the internet either! Not cheap though - the bill was about $50 per person. It's not exactly value for money but it's a pretty good feed.
