Do you like meat? Do you like drinks? Do you like eating meat and drinking? Nikutosake in PLQ Mall is singing a siren song just for you. Opened in October 2024 by the Aburi-EN group, Nikutosake is targeted at the 9-to-5’ers in the Paya Lebar area, with a lunch and dinner menu.
Set lunches start from S$10.50++ and come with a complimentary miso soup and mini appetiser, while à la carte dinner options begin from S$10.90++ for a signature dry ramen. Seating is mostly alfresco, with large outdoor coolers providing air conditioning so diners can enjoy their meals in comfort.
Beef, pork and chicken are expertly grilled over binchotan to impart a distinctive smokey flavour and give it a nice char.
Items on the menu at Nikutosake include items such as the Nikutosake Signature Dry Ramen (S$10.90++, available all day). Chewy egg and wheat noodles are topped with grilled pork belly slices, glazed with a housemade yakiniku sauce and a hint of garlic. Pickled ginger and spring onions add colour and lift to the dish.
Seafood lovers should not miss out on the Kani Miso Koura Yaki (S$14.90++, dinner only). This striking dish is composed of crab meat, miso, crab roe and uni sauce served in a crab shell. Mixing together the raw quail egg yolk produces a rich and creamy dip that pairs perfectly with sake or beer. This combination is pretty addictive and I don’t think you’d want to share.
Meat lovers will be spoiled by the selection of teppan-style grills. The Premium Beef Teppan (S$22.90++, dinner only) features 180g of Australian sirloin charred over binchotan to medium-well and presented on a sizzling hot plate. It’s served with baby potatoes tossed in garlic soy mayonnaise, sauteed onions and corn, and wafu onion dressing.
Of course, not forgetting the drinks – Nikutosake has a large variety of sake, beer, and cocktails for your enjoyment. For those who don’t take alcohol, there are also mocktails such as the very refreshing Yuzu Cucumber Mocktail (S$6++).
Nikutosake also has 1-for-1 sake of the day in a 180ml carafe all day and all night, in addition to the usual 1-for-1 Asahi beer and highball available at most EN Dining concepts.
