やっほ~!
So just a while ago I was invited by the lovely people from  Entertainer Singapore & En Grill & Bar for a Media Food Tasting session♪



En Grill & Bar has 3 unique areas: an open-concept kitchen & communal dining area, an elegant indoor lounge, and an alfresco dining area. The food tasting was held at the elegant indoor lounge!

En Grill & Bar is the first Japanese Dining Bar at Mohamed Sultan Road, which is now a very popular area for Japanese 居酒屋 (Izakaya - Drinking Restaurants). The restaurant focuses on serving the award-winning Motobu Wagyu Beef as one of the main ingredients.

In addition to the wide range of grilled dishes, En Grill & Bar offers unqiue Japanese influenced tapas, mains, cocktails, and Japanese alcohol (Sake, Shochu, Awamori, etc.)
(Information from En Grill & Bar About Me Page)


The lounge has a very cozy, lounge-like feel with very comfy pillows! The lighting is slightly dimmed to give a club-ish feel. It's quiet similar to the VIP table at the clubs I went to back in Melbourne! 
They also have an outdoor area, but I prefer to be indoors, lol.

I also thought this place was perfect for corporate functions, cocktail parties, and events!




Ready to eat! ♪

The entire menu for the night
Let's go through the entire menu!


Drinks
I didn't drink the alcoholic beverages because (1) it was a weekday = I have work the next day (2) I had my first injectables and was told not to drink.
So here's the mocktails (super yummy) that I had!


Flamingo Flame
Tasted like fruit punch♪ 

Orange Crush
This one is great for people who citrus-y drinks (like me!)



Tapas

Next are the tapas! Tapas means a wide variety of appetizers or snacks in Spanish and it can be both hot and cold!

Tako Carpaccio ($12)

Sliced octopus and salmon roe with a drizzle of yuzu and truffle oil


I'm a huge fan of both yuzu and truffle oil so this dish was like a match made in heaven for me!
Not a huuuge fan of tako (octopus) but this dish will convince anyone to love tako! 






Wagyu Mini Burger ($16)

Handground Motobu wagyu beef patty with red wine sauce

I LOVE burgers, and especially sliders (aka mini burgers). The meat was really juicy and tender and the red wine sauce matched really well! Great to share with a group of friends! Got to eat two of theses and to be honest, I probably could have gobbled up the whole plate LOL!!

nom nom nom



Garlic Gambas ($16)
Pan-fried shrimp with creamy butter sauce

The prawns were cooked to perfection and THE SAUCE IS AMAZING!! Then again, if something has garlic n butter... it'll automatically be on my 'LOVE IT' list. 
I also like it when I go to a restaurant and the chef takes that extra effort to remove the intestinal tract. It makes the prawn photo-ready and 'cleaner'. 




Charcoal Grilled
Sumiyaki Moriawase ($25)

Assorted grilled skewers

With a great mix of squid, meat, and veggies - this one was definitely a crowd-pleaser. Don't forget the lemon! Just drizzle it before biting into the delicious grilled items.
This is also another great dish to share too!



The aroma that filled the room when this came in was AMAAAZIIIIING
I'm a huge fan of charcoal grilled things so when I saw this I ran to take pics and carried one back myself because I couldn't wait for it to be served LOL



Wagyu Yasai Stick ($24)

Motobu Wagyu with assorted veggies skewer

Another great dish to share! The veggies and meat was cooked to perfection! It includes a dipping sauce but to be honest, I love the natural flavors!

Look at how long this skewer is!!!



Main Dish
Sunny Side-Up Hamburg ($18)
Handground wagyu beef patty topped with sunny side-up egg and red wine sauce

This is my favorite combination at any family restaurants in Japan!!!! 
The hamburg was oh SO juicy and tender. The egg yolk was still runny so the lovely harmony of the runny yolk and meat is pure SEXINESS!! 



Wagyu Houba Misayaki ($28)
Charcoal grilled Motobu Wagyu steak with miso on houba leaf

I LOVE MEAT! This is another dish I RAN to quickly take a photo of and bring back to the table because I wanted to eat it ASAP! I usually like my steak medium rare so when I saw that the steak was still cooking on the houba leaf, I knew I had to eat it quickly before it becomes medium~well done. The beef was marbled, tender, flavorful, and melts in your mouth! 

It's...so...beautiful!!

Wagyu Suji and Foie Gras ($14.80)
Braised Motobu Wagyu beef tendon with foie gras in miso

It was super soft and just like the Foie Gras, the beef melts in your mouth! The strong flavors math well with the fresh veggies! It would probably match really well with bread too! 

Not only was it yummy, it was also pretty with all the colors of the veggies!



Angel Hair Pasta ($18.80)
Cold angel hair pasta topped with sea urchin and salmon roe

I'm a huge fan of uni (sea urchin) so when I saw this one the list I was like YAAAAAAAAAAAAS!!
Everyone knows I'm not really a carbs person because I prefer to fill my tummy with MEAT! MEAT MEAT!!!
My tummy was quite full with all the meat dishes but this pasta was really light and refreshing!
Nom-ed it up really quickly! 

Look at how fresh the uni is!!!


Dessert

Yuzu Cheesecake ($7.80)

Light cheesecake infused with Japanese yuzu

Out of the two desserts, this one was my favorite! The candied(?) citrus fruit was SO YUMMY!!!
The cheesecake was quite light and easy to eat even after a very big meal!




Matcha Tiramisu ($7.80)

En's own green tea tiramisu

This was my first time trying green tea tiramisu! It was very light and it was a great, light dish to finish the meal.
