Tajimaya (VivoCity)

We got lucky and won Premium Wagyu Buffet dining vouchers from Class95FM to Tajimaya, a Japanese Charcoalgrill Yakiniku. The thought of having Yakiniku is always a No-No to me but Tajimaya has managed to curb my fear as they are equipped with a high performance exhaust system that takes good care of the smoke, allowing us to sit comfortably in an air-conditioned environment. They also has an Al Fresco Dining like no other as the restaurant has an outdoor seating space that offer a panoramic view of Sentosa Island and Resorts World Sentosa (RWS)

The buffet is kept at 100 mins, $69.90 per pax adult, $3 more for Fri to Sunday & PH.

We started off with their ready items on the menu while waiting for the servers to set up the charcoal grill and bring us the meat platters that we ordered.

We warmed ourselves up by ordering a bowl of Asari Clam Soup. The soup was opaque and comprised of both Asari and Kombu. The taste was ordinary.

Up next, we had the Kaisen Chawanmushi to warm our stomachs. The egg custard has seafood included.

I'm addicted to their Hokkaido Tobiko Potato salad as they were so appetizing. However, the thought in the corner of my mind told me not to eat too much as potato will make the stomach fill up easily. 

The Hiyashi Cold Soba was pretty ordinary too.

I'm a fan of Garlic Fried Rice but I guess I will give this a miss for they need to be flavourful enough. It's better to keep the stomach space for the Yakiniku instead.

There were only few kinds of Sashimi available on the menu and I'm already satisfied as there was my favourite Swordfish Sashimi. We had Salmon, Salmon belly, Tuna and Swordfish Sashimi.

Premium Meats

They pride themselves on serving quality meat and sourcing them with the highest grade from Kagoshima and Miyazaki and prepared fresh daily by their skilled Chefs.

All Wagyu beef on Tajimaya's Ala Carte menu are of A5 grade. This type of Wagyu is the highest yield and meat quality grade for Wagyu Beef which has the most ideal firmness, texture, and marbling - making it perfect for creating a melt-in-your-mouth experience.

We grabbed some lettuce to wrap over the piece of BBQ Meat with kimchi and Chuka Wakame to enjoy them.

It was a good experience with Tajimaya for the service crew was on the ball, most importantly no delaying in our online order and absolutely friendly. For those who love Yakiniku and Premium Meats, this buffet is well worth it in terms of quality and standard of service.
