What a Japanese Mom Hate and Like About Singapore | Omoté Review

- čas přidán 6. 09. 2024
- Yuri recently moved from Japan to Singapore with her husband and baby. She is sharing her experience living here as a mother. What are some of the pros and cons compared to her home country, Japan?
Today’s restaurant: Omoté (at Thomson Plaza)
Official Facebook: / omotesingapore
Make a reservation: www.omote.com.sg/
Order online for delivery: omote.oddle.me...
It was my first time visiting Omoté, and I was genuinely surprised by its quality and uniqueness. They serve contemporary Japanese - a delicious fusion of Asian and Japanese cuisine. I love the octopus kara-age, the humungous chirashi, crispy chili crab, and the pork belly. Really delicious.
As Omoté is popular, I strongly recommend you to make a reservation from the link above so you are assured a table.
Big thanks to Yuri for appearing on my channel! Check out her blog (ameblo.jp/frui...) and Instagram / y.anes923
Thank you Omoté for sponsoring this video and providing delicious food for us. I will definitely come back with my family.

IMHO, you should interview the chef who has been living in Singapore for 40 years, he is sure to have lots of stories and encounters to share.
Hi methorfeckur what's up. you could declare this to all the unemployed chefs & people from all walks of life. Tell to the world CZcamsrs that all unemployed & retrenched employees are phsychos and that you wana dye. And that all the employed, retrench-proofed & extremely well paid government or mom workers are non-phsychos?
Leave your name, address & contact number , fkkn govdog
In real world & real time you won't be talking or your teeth would come up missing , jurk
Mayb u can have a series w e chef, being here for 40 yrs. I m sure he can add value to to ur channel in terms of his views, experience & recommendations
Ghib, you may consider interviewing ex Japan National Team Football player, Tadanari Lee. He is now playing for Albirex Singapore.
i love how ghibojisan says thank you to the staff even midsentence :) kind guy
シンガポールに来て1ヶ月が経ちました。動画に出ていらっしゃるゆりさんと同じ主人の海外赴任の帯同ですが、日本食が恋しかったので、お店が知れて嬉しいです💖
Ghib you look good with glasses!
Seriously I don't think Omoté needs any advertising, their reputation really precedes them. Legitly amazing food.
with that said, guess I will have to make a trip down to try soon!
Didn't know about this place honestly, but i am going to make a booking now after watching the video! hahaha looks so yummy!!!
I didn't know about it either and I've been here two and a half years... will try it
Lol when I first moved to Singapore I couldn’t understand Singlish at times and I’m american. I can’t imagine how hard it would be for a Japanese person.
This is the only place i eat chirashi don now, really good.
For foreigners who are coming over to try it, be sure to go early because they get really long queues... you can make reservations too.
Agreed, super good 😆
OMG the food looks soooo good! And by the way, her English was pretty good.
omg Yuri is actually a fricking doctor and an anesthesiologist..i thought she was just a typical expat housewife..
But became a housewife here lol...
@@boujeefoodie2635 yeah. Someone has to take care of her newborn, her husband should be earning more than her, so she will have to be primary caregiver
An anaesthesiologist is a doctor btw
@@karebu2 not necessarily. In USA, you don't need a medical degree to be an anesthesiologist. It's a separate certification
@@boujeefoodie2635 nothing wrong with that especially when she has a year old baby
My mum married my Singaporean Chinese father and has been staying in SG for 45 years! She's always sharing plenty of culture shock stories when she first came in the early 70s.:) Now she's like 90% more localised haha..
I must go Thonson Plaza one day to try this Janpese restaurant, all the food look so unique.
Very cool. Thanks! Had so much fun watching this! 👍👍👍
@3:09 Ghib has reached a new level in subtitling...sugoi! :D
The pork is so delicious that she start speak in English without pressure
Welcome to Thomson Plaza. There are quite a number of Japanese restaurants there, but Omote is probably the most popular of them lot. The queue is outright insane though.
I always associated Yaohan with Thomson Plaza. So many good childhood memories.
👍 that was how Thomson Yaohan came about.
I love how the first beer goes down that quickly. DRINK STRONGG!!
10 years ago, those who visited thomson plaza is those who stay nearby and the only shop to go was those fairprice and people who send their children to learning point. But now is omote conquer the thomson plaza
Not true dude. Even before reno, there are many popular restaurant ... swensen, paradise Inn, sushi tei.
@@Jinkypigs paradise inn no more already
@@Jinkypigs Swensen has been there for a super long time too!
This look so darn good!!! Definitely my to go list next!!
And hi to Yuri chan!
Glad to know Yuri san and the food look so yummy and glad to understand how she feel about living in Singapore
The food is super good in Omote! Once again great vid !! 👏👏👏👏
Ahhh going to Singapore next month and this restaurant is definitely on my itinerary!!! Can't wait to taste everything you ordered
try the bara chirashi don!
Best is do reservation because is always long queue and is closed on monday
You wont be disappointed! Hope you enjoy your stay in Singapore 😁
I followed their Instagram - they’re closed on tuesdays, open for lunch only on Monday :)
Welcome to Singapore
ここのシェフの話も気になる！
I am really glad that @Ghib Ojisan is being so nice and kind to others~
It was genuinely a teally thoughtful interview!!!
👍 Much Respect to you, bro~
Haven’t been to Thomson Plaza for more than 20 yrs?….must come to this place when I am back in SG the next time
Hi, it's another entertaining video. Yuri san could actually utter some authentic Singlish, she certainly could do well in Singapore. As for yourself, Ghib Ojisan, you looked nice in spectable 👍👍👍
Omote, see u soon.
I love Japanese food! Wish there are more Japanese restaurants like Omote' here in Florida.
These dishes looks really nice outside . I’m sure they will taste great too . I am gonna visit it soon .😋
Hi Ghib! Hope you enjoy!
Chirashi!!!!!!!!!!! But that is a small mountain of food…enjoyable to watch you two eating that much food…😁
Can I request Ghib san’s set when I next go to Omote? Every dish look so good!
OMG! The food looked so good...I hope Yuri enjoyed her time in Singapore so far. Hopefully she can make Singapore her second home
Hi Ghib , n Yuri san,,, Oishi so desu ne Ghib,, maybe will try to order,, Nagae san ni mo yoroshiku,,, so many nice food otanoshimi desu wa,, 👍😬🍲🍺,, Thanks for d info Ghib,, ✋🍧
if you reply to questions with 'can, can' that way, you're already 30% Singaporean
, great video!
Bro hougang mrt nearby have a big pasar malam today onwards . U can come jalan jalan that area
Thank you sooo much for introducing this new makan place! Gonna try the chilli crab and udon and pork. Thanks again Ghib!😊👍🏻
The udon was a bit sweet for my liking, but the rest, amazing quality. Enjoy 😄
Super mount Chirashi look like ice kacang? The food like WOW, I’m hungry.
最高 shuold be si bei shiok... shiok is something like umai?
Mouth-watering...
Wow, the food looks really great! Next stop for me to check out!
I feel like you should turn around & go back to that chef. As a Japanese who has been in SG for 40 years, the experiences & wisdom from him would be immeasurable, especially for someone like you, who might consider SG for the long-term
Wow the food looks sumptious/yum!
I want to be friends with chef Nagae
I visit omote every week
It's very nice 😁
@@GhibOjisan recently they upped the price, but they also upped the ingredients, so it’s fair 😂
Oh, her "This is the best" sounded so fluent, as though she's a native English speaker.
I'd love to be her new Singaporean friend, but I unfortunately don't speak Japanese at all......lol.
A lot of Japanese people study English but are afraid to speak it as they lack practice. I have Japanese relatives in Chiba and they all understand English. But refuse to speak it as they lack conversational English skills. So you can actually try to message her in English I'm sure she will respond.
You'd be surprised she actually speaks fluent eng. She's a doc, medical degrees aren't likely to be taught fully in native. Probably more like she can't understand singlish bc of the accent and broken sentences.
The food looks awesome
Thanks for featuring yuri-san she's so adorable and positive!
My partner is Canadian, and also cannot understand English in Singapore lol
トムソンプラザにこんなステキな日本食レストランが⁉️時代は変わりましたねー。
Cant speak for Singapore, but I believe both Malaysia and Singapore are identical. Especially in Malaysia, not everyone could speak English, not everyone could speak Malay, sometimes we ended up just pointing and do a whole bunch of random sign language to communicate.
There was a Spring Garden restaurant more than 30 years ago.
I miss dimsum at thimson kelong restaurant; what others come to mind? :)
Summer in SG? Its 365 days of summer here 🤣
The food is too delicious
I think I know her.... I was working at another place an I believe I served someone named Yuri.
It would be helpful if the restaurant provide common utensils, so that none of them need to use their own to dig in to those shared dishes.
👍🤩😁😊😊🥰😋😋😋😋😋must try.
They all looks good😋
Used to have a very authentic chicken rice stall nearby. It was back in the 1990s.
Do you mean the one which has kampung chicken? There was also a hawker in a kopitiam (same kpt as where aston's used to be), which had above average chicken rice; hope he's doing ok now; let's go see :)
A lot of outdoor places in singapore has shelter. So I think it’s not too bad?? まあでも日本人の女性の立場で理解できる笑
you can say nagae-san have lived in singapore for nagai(e) jikan.... why am i like this TnT
i'm sorry if this is offensive but i just couldn't pass up the chance to make this joke TnT
Btw nagai jikan just means long time
how you finish all this food?
I just went there not long ago, it’s really good isn’t it?
Loved it!
I hope there is no food wastage , can bring back to Mother In Law to try 🤣
Of course, we dabao the remaining😆
Is Yamaha Music school still around? Use to work there in the 90’s. So much memories. I should pay a visit to Thomson Plaza some day! Gerald, Vincent, Valentine Jae Fung, Jasmine, Penny, Jessie, Rose,Jenny, Madeleine, Linda, Zala. I miss you all!!!!
Yes, Yamaha is still there.
Ojisan, do you pay for the lunch in the restaurant?
すごい！Will try Omote.
I saw my favourite uni in the video wonder how much that box cost
Like your video all the time. 👍👍👍😍
行ってみたいけど、値段どんなもんなんだろ。
Yeah Yun's very sophisticated but fun really no airs abt her,btw even if she's just a hse-wife(doesn't matter)
Omgosh. This episode, your food is highly atas (quality) plus rich plus sinful (all the roe, froi gras etc cholesterol high yo!) plus huge (serving). How did y'all eat so much?! Yr guest is kawaii when ghib san tried to teach her the shiok word. I can't help laughing (no bad intention just hilarious) when she first pronounced it as "shock". Shock and shiok big diff in meaning. But the 2nd time she said it emphasising the iok, she got it right. The last dish chirashi is a big shocker to me, how to eat ah...😲? LoL.
The food made me hungry
fkkk i wanna eat there but the queue is always so longggg
Thomson Plaza must visit foods looks delicious, is it any way near Novena??
No, it's much further down the road. Nearer towards Ang Mo Kio housing estate. It's past the MacRitchie Reservoir and the nearest MRT station is Upper Thomson on the brown line.
@@anitacher2412 Thanks Anita for letting me know I have made notes, we are staying at Hotel Miramar from 7 September 2022. I will find alot have changed. Can you speak Mandarin?
@@annamillermemorylanestours5346 Unfortunately no, not fluently I'm afraid. I'm one of those who was brought up speaking English so I can only speak a smattering of dialect and Mandarin even tho' I studied it in school. It was a very disliked subject for me LOL! In any case, majority of Singaporeans speak and write fluent English as subjects in our schools are taught in English. Mandarin, Malay and Tamil are taught as 2nd languages. I'm just one of those who's not a linguist.
@@anitacher2412 Anita may I ask what is your professional now? Do you play sports, I am retired looking into Singapore lawn bowling. Do you know anyone is a member of lawn bowling club. I tried SCC waiting for results, it will be nice to bowls in Singapore. Be staying at Hotel Miramar from 7th September 2022. Hope we can meet.
Super Mount Chirashi is probably inspired from ice-kachang
Yr usage of 'shiok' for food is not correct. In hokkien, shld say 'ho chiak' (meaning delicious)
"Shiok' is more suitable for like an experience after you like went thru a roller coaster or a massage. U can even use 'song' which has similar in usage.Just sharing.
Maybe Ghib can tell Ms Yuri that there are the kind of umbrellas that are attached to strollers for sale online. She can try search for it on online shopping platforms, so as to use it in SG, the UV rays can be very damaging to the skin in SG.
She should wear a hat with a large brim. Works as well.
Ya I heard Japan’s summer can hit 39 degrees Celsius (now Europe is around 40), that’s not even Singaporeans (accustomed to all-year summer temperatures) can handle
Spend more on sunscreen, but save more on moisturiser (because Singapore is more humid)
How are they eating so much 😅
個人的にはタコの唐揚げが気になるかな？
メチャウマでした！
Seeing how far the business has grown from under the sushiro brand to now under omote, it brings tears to my eyes ROFL.
Nagae-san even offers those intimate chef services in a private room at the omote establishment. But that was back before COVID as far as I know he has not opened that part since
She can get those facekini to block sun XD
Gonna colab with stackedhomes again?
You look good,different but more pro
ghib tell yuri that when we singaporeans meet a foreigner we know how to code switch and speak proper english so people like her can understand. tell her to join community groups and talk to us. we are friendly and welcoming.
I live more than 60 yrs of my life without UV and I'm still healthy today. But I still hate sunny day.

You are the number one youtuber in Singapore. Following closely behind will be greg's big eats - gregory leow. Hope both of you can combine to make good videos. It will be my dream. Both of you will have a good fight against mark weins from Thailand .
The food so shiok lei…lol
チリクラブでは無くてソフトクラブでは？
Does Japanese family hire maids or does the women takes care of the kids and house since they don't work
I think it'll be better if you give the guests a little more time to eat before following up with questions, and allow them to finish talking before talking. It just seems that the interviewees on this video and the other videos can be a little more comfortable if more attention is given to their conditions. Or maybe I'm just overthinking things which in that case, this would be another comment in passing with no significance
Don't keep forcing your guests to speak Singlish. Firstly it gives them pressure and discomfort, since most of them only came recently. Secondly, we should promote proper English so that everyone can understand. It's good if you know Singlish but it should be a cultural complement rather than a demand to speak it.
みたいな
Food looks good for the price. The Japanese mum though....yummy. 😋😋😋😋😋😋
"Hate" is too strong the word for this case. Should just be "like" and "dislike".😅
1st
I tried the truffle tako, instead of truffles they put black wood ear. What a disappointment.
