Yesterday evening we went for a night out and stumbled across an Izakaya joint at Clarke Quay. We walked in and tried it simply because of the ambience. It oozed a Japanese feel to it and felt not too Singaporean. The restaurant was quite large and spacious and has "western" seating as well as the Japanese tatami (though in this one you can actually walk in keeping your shoes on). The table we sat at was quite unique, as you can see from the pictures, and it was lit from beneath giving it a yellow glow. To our surprise, the food was actually tasty and quite filling as the portions were not your typical small izakaya servings.

| Beef stew with potatos and carrots. Similar to the Indonesian "semur" but not as sweet. The soup was light yet tasty, but the beef was really well cooked, that you can cut it with your chopsticks. |
 |
| Asparagus in katsu batter served with ponzu sauce. Nice and crunchy. |
 |
| Many types of seating arrangements - sushi bar, tatami or western seatings. Quite spacious too that does not make you feel closterphobic. |
