Kani Croquttes @$12.80 |
The Kani Croquettes has blue swimmer crab meat in-and-out and interestingly, its inside has sauce that's akin to a bisque. A strong savoury flavour that pairs well with alcohol. Lovely start.
delightful morsel |
Next up, another seafood dish and this time, we had seabream. Grilled seabream with red miso broth, shitake and minced pork. Was expecting a strong flavours in this dish since miso is used but it turned out rather mild. Subtle flavours and to be eaten with a small wooden spoon.
Madai a la Plancha @$15.80 |
We heard a commotion, and turned to have a look. A table was having Sake Chicken and it was certainly a look to behold. Instead of beer-can chicken, one gets sake-chicken at Boruto. This being a Japanese izakaya after all! Alas, the chicken had flew the coop as it wasn't part of our dinner.
Roasted Sake Chicken @$48.80 |
Asahi Super Dry and Asahi Black |
Black Barley + Uni @$35.80 |
The Black Barley + Uni dish, looked promising. Beautifully presented, lots of aka uni and interesting black barley risotto with chopped squid and saffron and snowed with grated parmesan. The chopped squid gave it a very interesting texture alongside with the barley. However, I can only say am not a fan of this dish. Let me know your thoughts on this dish, if you've had it.
The next dish, was something that everyone in the group could agree on. The 1.6kg Zaragova Roasted Pork Shoulder. Best!
Roasted Pork Shoulder @$88.80 |
chopped and ready to be devoured |
The pork shoulder can be shared by 2-3 pax as a main. Recommend to have it with at least 5 friends so that you can try the other stuff here. Plus sake.
oh, we've eaten this much? |
so good that only bones, remained |
Next up, we had a carb dish. One of Boruto's signatures; Truffle Hiyashi Somen, served cold.
ready.... |
it's raining truffle flakes! |
Truffle Hiyashi Somen @$15.80 |
The Vault |
Warabi Mochi @$6.80 Not |
so soft |
The other dessert was the truffle creme brulee. Truffle, what? Yes, but the flavour was actually like-able!
Truffle Creme Brulee @$8.80 |
can be less sweet but this was good |
For appetiser, get the Kani Croquette. Highly recommends the Zaragova Pork Shoulder. For carbs, the Truffle Hiyashi Somen and lastly, the Truffle Creme Brulee. And sake, yes?
