Furthermore, on some history, Tomi Sushi originated from Joetsu City in Niigata Prefecture. Their history that spans six decades. It all started with the establishment of their main outlet, the “Takada Branch”, back in 1954. Also, the restaurant takes pride specialising around the key elements of fish, rice, and culinary expertise. This rich history has shaped the present-day Tomi Sushi, which now brings its unwavering passion to Singapore.

Also, the establishment has since expanded to several locations in Japan and other countries. This includes Singapore, where it opened its first outlet in 2010. Over time, Tomi Sushi has grown significantly and currently operates three branches in Singapore, in Novena, Katong and here at Millenia Walk.

Also, Tomi’s Chawanmushi ($10-$15) is a delightful take on the traditional Japanese staple. It comprises of a type of savoury egg custard, often served as an appetizer.

Premium dishes

Moreover, if you desire something more premium, their lower grade Wagyu is a consideration. Options include their Wagyu Beef rice Don set (priced $28-$38). It is a dish for those who love beef. It is served with tender, flavorful beef is served over a bed of rice, with a side of miso soup. Though the wagyu beef is not as fine in quality as the one we tired at Rubicon steak house in Thomson, but is more affordable here.
