Taku

The home of internationally renowned sushi chef Takuya Watanabe and right-hand man Long Ng, this 16-seater restaurant is centred around its striking counter fashioned from fine English oak. The omakase menu has a similar focus on quality, using only the finest ingredients, mostly from European waters. There’s a purity and elegance to every mouthful, exemplified by the superlative 'tuna two ways'. There’s one sitting at lunch and two at dinner – and as all guests are served together, be sure to arrive on time.
