Two cultures meet on every plate Gake is here to imagine Japanese Cuisine by infusing European cooking techniques and local flavours. Dishes on the menu are created with one main component and enhanced with a maximum of three other elements. Diners can expect explosions of flavour as the two cultures meet on their plates. Seasonality and simplicity Seasonality and simplicity are central to the philosophy at Gake. They are passionate about cooking with rare, seasonal ingredients and love how they can inspire new dishes. When creating the GAKE concept, Chef Angus Chow was focused on keeping things simple to achieve excellence. Touch of local flavour Chef Angus is obsessed with the harmony between the local and international cuisines. He drew a lot of inspiration from his travels all around the globe through the years. Being an advocate of local food, Chef Angus Chow creatively infused the local flavour to the cuisine. Japanese dining reimagined What sets them apart from these Japanese dishes is the infusion of local flavours. Angus’ extraordinary skills birthed from the curiosity on how the marriage of different cuisines produce versatility that anyone’s taste buds will surely love. His dishes are known to display simplicity and class. He won the Chef of the Year title at the 18th World Gourmet Summit Awards of Excellence, 2018. Simplicity is the key here, and this is the $98 Omakase menu. Yes make no mistake, $98 per pax Omakase. In this day and age where Omakase menus cost $168 and above in other fine dining Japanese restaurants (going up to $450-500), this looks like a steal looking at the comprehensive quality of the above menu we were offered. Let’s go through the taste taste first. To start off, we were served the Nanben Zuke which is a Cold Chicken Appetizer. It is not listed on the Omakase and is actually a complimentary starter to cleanse the palatte. Another “complimentary” dish Monk Fish Liver was served next. We were beginning to enjoy the PR skills of Chef Angus by now, and he really knows how to say the right words to make us happy and come back again. Hiroshima Oyster with Sesame Ponzu and Nashi Pear. Big and juicy and bursting with freshness in terms of structure and texture. Wow! Kudos to Chef Angus. Hamachi Crudo with Sesame Soy Dressing and Herbs. It was fresh and the flavours simply melted in the mouth. We were served another surprise. Instead of a Pantagonian Toothfish with Asean Relish and Chilli OR Hokkaido Scallop with Laksa Foam and Beni Shoga, we were served BOTH dishes, again compliments of Chef Angus. This Chef is a Rock Star! We enjoyed both dishes very much. We had already made up our minds that we will be coming back, no matter what the outcome of the other mains we will be served later on. A Dassai 50 needs no introduction. This Sake paired really well with the food so far. Maitake Mushroom – also known as Hen of the Wood was served next. Sprinkled with Curry Salt, this was a pretty healthy dish. The next 2 sakes were fuller bodied and more intense and paired really well with our mains. Again another surprise, instead of a USDA Short Rib with Hayashi Style and Summer Vegetables OR Iberico Pork Jowl with Aka Miso and HK Kailan, we were served BOTH dishes to allow us to try out and appraise them. The USDA Short Ribs was braised for 4 hours and demi glazed in Hainan style. It was really soft, juicy and tender on the inside. Well we were pretty stuffed by now, and now presented with Chef Angus’ Signature Truffle Hiyashi Soumen with Tobiko and Avruga Caviar. Avruga seems to be the flavour of the quarter, given the number of times we saw this served at other restaurants. It was rich and creamy and bursting with umami flavours. To finish off with dessert, we were absolutely sure we had gained at least 2kg this evening. Dessert of the day served with immaculate plating layout and tasted just as good as it looks. Yuzu Sorbet with Lemon Cake. Ooh Lala…… For Reservations: 36 Carpenter St, #01-01, Singapore 059915 Mon — Sat, 5pm until late Sun – Closed 6781 3603 kitchen@gake.com.sg

Seasonal Kyoto-Style Omakase What is Kaiseki Kaiseki, or Kaiseki Ryori*, is known as the highest form of Japanese dining, akin to fine dining in the western world. It is regarded as a sophisticated culinary art that requires many years of training and is characterized by its meticulous preparation, beautiful presentation and multiple courses. Each Kaiseki meal has a prescribed order of courses categorized by the cooking method of each dish. The cooking methods are never repeated so guests can sample new flavours and textures throughout their meal. A key determinant on how Kaiseki restaurants differ from one another would be in the dashi that they use. The dashi or Japanese stock in layman terms is the elemental pillar of most Japanese cuisine. It’s umami-rich flavors are used to enhance the natural essence of many dishes in Kaiseki Ryori. Most of the cooking, marinades and sauces require the use of dashi. Every Chef’s dashi is unique. The basic ingredients may be the same (konbu and bonito flakes) but subtle differences like the cooking time; the type of konbu and bonito flakes used and the type of water can all affect the final flavor of the dashi. *Ryori means “meal” in Japanese. Kaiseki Ryori is the formal term for a Kaiseki meal About Chef Yoshiyuki Kashiwabara Honored as an Excellent Chef of Diplomatic Missions by the Japanese Foreign Service, Chef Yoshiyuki spent seven years as the personal chef to the ambassadors based in San Francisco and Singapore. His formative years of development as a Kaiseki chef includes 14 years spent at the respected Kyoryori Hosoi in Saitama prefecture, where he joined as a trainee and eventually rose to lead the kitchen team. We ordered the Wagyu Beef Omakase $178 + top up $48 for 4 glasses of sake pairing. We were served the Sakizuke Seasonal Starter with Uni. It was a cold tofu appetizer topped with Bafun Uni from Hokkaido. The first sake served was a Junmai Daiginjo which was smooth and easy on the palette. This paired really well with the Hassun which was 3 types of seasonal appetizer. The Suimono Japanese Soup with Ainame (Fat Greenling) Fish was brilliantly executed. The broth was light and quite “cheng” (to put it in Teochew lingo) with no MSG or additives added. We were told the fish is air flown from Tsukiji Market Tokyo twice a week. Next up we were served the second sake, a Junmai. It was a relatively unknown family brand but we were told Yoshi gets his sake supply direct from the sake house, cutting down the middlemen and passing on the savings to diners. Tsukuri – Beef and Sashimi Moriawase – featuring my favourite Otoro (Fatty Tuna Belly). It simply melted in my mouth upon the first bite. Oishi! Kobachi – Uni Chawanmushi was next. Perfectly well balanced execution of flavours. The smooth buttery texture of the Chawanmushi exploded in our mouths with the creamy umami Uni, paired with the sake. It would also pair well with Champagne! Sake 3 was back to a Junmai Daiginjo – a full bodied intense expression of a classic Junmai Daiginjo. The first main was an A5 Kagoshima Wagyu. It was well marbled with textures of good fat bursting into our mouths. The second main was a Shokuji – Wagyu Beef Don with Onsen Egg. We skipped the Don as we were already pretty stuffed by now. To round off the evening, Chef Yoshi served us some hot matcha to pair with our dessert. Truly, an impeccable and tasty meal!
