0 comments

Dashi Master Marusaya, flagship restaurant of the Marusaya Group had launched their new lunch sets and I was fortunate to have the privilege for a taste. Be spoilt for choice as there's Udon Lunch Set, Dashi Shabu Lunch Set, Rice Bowl Set Lunch, Tantalising Set Lunch, Hot Toban Set Lunch and Shokado Bento Box.

Opens from 12pm to 2.30pm for lunch and from 5pm to 10.30pm for dinner. On Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays, it is open from 12pm to 10.30pm. Dashi Master Marusaya is a cosy chic 90-seater restaurant and offers a comfortable space for dining-in.

First things first. I'd recommend to place an order for the Shokado Bento Box as it is only available in limited quantity daily. Ideal for us who would like to have a bit(e) of everything. Multi-course meal that includes appetiser, chawanmushi, tempura, grilled fish, meat dish, 2 kinds of sashimi, small rice bowl, small udon and dessert. Beautiful Shokado Bento, a highly satisfying and enjoyable experience.


SHOKADO BENTO 松花堂弁当

Shokado Bento Box 松花堂弁当 @$58++


Super loved the thick-cut sashimi, the luscious fatty pork that glistened, healthy grilled salmon and best of all, one also gets their famed chewy udon in lovely dashi topped with katsuoboshi plus a bowl of salmon don to satisfy most cravings.

Shokado Bento Box offers generous portions of food, but for the lighter eaters, fret not as there are enough variety from the various lunch sets that's bound to satisfy almost everyone.


RICE BOWL SET LUNCH 丼ランチ

Tuna Belly Don Set 大トロ丼セット @$38++


For most of the lunch sets (except for the Shokado Bento), one could choose 3 sides to go along with the meal. For example, one could add-on a small dashimaki tamago, fried chicken, edamame, hijiki salad, nanbanzuke, ohitashi, california roll or matcha cake.

For first-timers to Dashi Master Marusaya, the must-try would be the all-time favourite Dashi Shabu Set Lunch. There's Hokkaido Pork Shabu, Beef Shabu and Wagyu Beef Shabu Set to opt from. For the all luxurious mouthfeel, go for the Wagyu Shabu set!

If you like your meal sizzling hot, do try the Wagyu Toban Set from the Hot Toban Set Lunch menu, Thick-cut wagyu slices, sitting pretty ontop of the grill plate. Tender meat with a good chew, with tasty jus and laid ontop of a spoonful of fluffy rice. Yums!
