Hachi Tei Japanese Cuisine

Went dinner with my friends at Hachi Tei Japanese Cuisine 2 weeks ago. My friend had been raving for many years. It was till that very night that I (finally) dine there.

Hachi Tei was once featured on Sunday Times some years ago, I think I read about it but never tried them out. Previously Hachi Tei was situated at #B1-27 China Square Food Centre until China Square Food Centre owner, Wah Khiaw Developments transformed it into an office block. So it moved to the current new location in May 2008.

The new place gives me a very homely and cozy feel, the Japanese songs playing in the background further enhance the atmosphere. I'm not sure why, when I dine at Hachi Tei, I just don't feel that I'm dining in Singapore, I feel that I'm dining in Taiwan. I'm not sure why I have that feeling. I think must be the super friendliness of the lady boss Cherine as she really do communicate with her customers.

We ordered Chirashi Don ($12.00), my friend always order Chirashi Don whenever he visits Hachi Tei. He told me that once I tried it, I would not order other items anymore.... Teriyaki Chicken Don ($7.00). I didn't ask whether it's nice... but I do find the serving pretty small. Sashimi Set ($15.00) I always love sashimi, that's why I ordered sashimi set. I loved the 'shiok shiok' feeling of dipping sashimi in the sauce with lots of wasabi and little soy sauce. By the way, the sashimi are really fresh!!

Nevertheless, it was an enjoyable dinner. Nice atmosphere, yummy food, no GST and service charge, reasonable cheap prices. I'm surely going back again. By the way, my friend treated me that night. Hahahaha.....
