@ Haru no yume

Haru No Yume is operated by head chef Rex Chang who prides himself on his ability to source the freshest local ingredients and then transform them into mouth-watering Japanese cuisine that’ll tickle your taste buds.

You’ll also find new signature dishes such as Tokyo chicken wings (must have for fried chicken fans) and for the more adventurous amongst you, Beef Yukke tartare. Wafu steak, Super ramen and Rainbow poke are just a few more of their latest obsessions. And as if that wasn’t enough, they’ve expanded their dessert menu to include soy pudding with yuzu sorbet, black sesame ice cream, and more.

Their all-you-can-eat Japanese buffet is available exclusively on Friday and Saturday evenings, where you’ll begin with a large sashimi platter to share accompanied by edamame bean appetisers and followed by the traditional shabu-shabu (hot pot). They also have a wide range of sushi, sashimi, tempura prawns, chicken karaage and fresh vegetables available from the buffet, to name but a few.

Our tip? Finish off with dessert and wash it down with a sake from their extensive drinks menu!
