Ku-Kai Izakaya – Hidden Izakaya in Admiralty!

Looking to enjoy the sunset by the waters while tucking into an icy cold beer and some bites? Ku-Kai Izakaya is the place to be! Despite being slightly inaccessible via public transport, it’s definitely worth a visit.

Most diners here opt for the al fresco dining option for the feels but indoor seating is always available for those who would rather be in the comfort of air-conditioning.

They boast a wide variety of food items and after spending some time flipping through the menu, I decided to start my meal off with the Kani Tama Gratin ($13). This Japanese gratin was made with straight cut macaroni that was firm yet chewy, unlike your typical potato gratin.

The slight sweetness from the bits of snow crab and fish, and saltiness of the bacon bits made for a right balance that hit the spot. The Béchamel sauce and cheese also gave the gratin the creaminess it needed. The layer of aburi mentaiko added a hint of spice and fishiness.

Even with this being a side, the portion was on the smaller side. That said, it was just enough to whet my appetite without being too jelak.

You can’t go to an Izakaya and not have skewers! The Kushiyaki Omakase 5 piece Skewer Set ($22) had the usual suspects – Chicken Thigh, Chicken Balls, Chicken Thigh with Leek, Pork Belly and Shiitake Mushroom. They also have a 7 piece set ($30).

I just have to put it out there that even as I’m writing this all I can think about is the perfectly grilled skewers.

The chicken was moist and tender, the pork belly extremely flavourful and the lightly salted mushroom still slightly juicy. Since they were grilled over a charcoal fire, there was a tinge of smoky flavour in the skewers that complemented the sauce slathered all over.

Finally, I had their Seafood Okonomiyaki ($19) which seemed to be rather popular. You can opt for the Chicken ($16) or Pork ($18) option if you haven’t had enough of their meat dishes. Unfortunately, their rendition of this Japanese pancake missed the mark for me.

The Okonomiyaki was slightly too cakey for my liking and the exterior wasn’t as crispy as I would’ve hoped for it to be. The seafood ingredients were also slightly lacking in terms of quantity, with only little bits of Tako and Prawn scattered around. The only saving grace would be the mountain of Bonito Flakes that topped the cabbage pancake.

I would just go straight for the skewers and other bites they offer and skip their Okonomiyaki.

This hidden gem is perfect for any occasion – a post-work chill session, a family meal or even a romantic evening date. Due to their limited seating, I would recommend making a reservation before heading down!

Ku-Kai Izakaya is a hidden izakaya by the sea that looks straight out of a Japanese anime

Travel may be picking up, but we’re always on the lookout for hidden finds and exciting eats in Singapore. If you’re craving a little slice of Japan (which has sadly yet to open its borders for leisure travel), look no further than Ku-Kai Izakaya at SAF Yacht Club in Admiralty .

Scenic views & cosy ambience

Don’t be put off by the far-flung location — you’ll get to enjoy scenic views of the Northern coast at this hidden izakaya by the sea. The alfresco dining area is adorned with akachōchin (Japanese red lanterns) and even a torii gate, the perfect setting for a Japanese anime series.

If not for the surrounding yachts, this place would give off major “idyllic fishing village” vibes.

I may have watched one too many Netflix series centred around izakaya , like Midnight Diner , Izakaya Bottakuri , and Restaurant to Another World , but doesn’t the cosy-looking interior remind you of Restaurant Yukihara from Food Wars! (Shokugeki no Soma) ?

Hearty izakaya grub

Moving on to the food and alcohol, Ku-Kai Izakaya doles out comfort classics like Crispy Fried Chicken (S$12) , Kani Tama Gratin (S$11) , and Jaga Mentaiko (S$11) , all of which are making my mouth water.

Don’t miss out on the popular Omakase Skewer Set (S$19 for 5pcs, S$26 for 7pcs) , a platter of assorted kushiyaki skewers like tsukune , negima , and shiitake .

For a taste of the sea, the Aburi Shimesaba (S$15) and Kawa Eib-age (S$11) , or mini deep-fried river shrimps, are best washed down with pints of ice-cold Sapporo beer. Bliss .

Catch the sunset with your partner over a romantic dinner, or round up your makan kakis for a chill drinking session. One thing to note: you are highly encouraged to make reservations by calling 8304 3028 due to limited seating.

I never thought I’d ever say this, but date night in Admiralty sounds like a great idea.

• The management of the pond were very friendly and serves you with a smile.
• Another interesting feature of the pond is that it also provides curry powder as a seasoning and the MSG made the prawns more flavorful as we grilled them!
• The tagged prawn system is very logical and down to earth. Simply get cash when you catch tagged prawns. This is good as it is not the usual get free hours when you catch tagged prawns scheme. Nothing like instant cash back right?
• Parking is quite ample and although the location is very "ulu", it is quite "modern" inside with a restaurant beside the pond. The pond sells some basic soft drinks and no food & beer (yet).
• Bring mosquito repellent and a portable fan if you have.
