Kinki Restaurant and Bar
Time Out says
Friendly warning! We're working hard to be accurate. But these are unusual times, so please check that venues remain open.
Decorated with feisty urban murals to reflect its philosophy and pop-culture credo (the main fish art on the floor of the entrance was designed by tattoo artist Chris Garver of Miami Ink fame), this 60-seater also prides itself on having fresh, well-sourced ingredients for innovative dishes. Crowd favourites – called Ninja's favourites here – include sea bream carpaccio ($34), foie gras and unagi maki ($32) and seafood and bacon-loaded okonomiyaki ($28). Kinki also dispatches bento sets for office deliveries during lunch within the CBD.
After dinner, head upstairs to the open-air Kinki Rooftop Bar on the third floor. Here, you can catch a calming vista of the Marina Bay skyline and waterfront with a bucket of five beers ($50/6-9pm) or one-for-one housepours (5-8pm). The trellis-lined bar and Japanese writing on bamboos add to the underground, home-run feel of this place, even if the menu strikes a different chord: a little less than half the drinks menu is Japanese, while the cocktails have Western elements shaken in. The house special Spicy Hachimitshu ($19) is a refreshingly spicy martini glass of vodka, honey umeshu, a tinge of wasabi gomme, fresh lemon and Japanese cucumber. The nachos at Kinki ($18/half size, $32/full size) are not quite nachos; rather, they’re tempura seaweed sheets topped with guacamole, sour cream and a choice of either black-pepper beef or spicy pork.
