Review of Veganized Bento Box ð± at NOBU Singapore by vikas
âïžâïžâïžâïžâïž
Wow! Exceptional! So Nobu is one of the worldâs most famous Japanese restaurants⊠Robert De Niro is a part owner and the chef, Nobu Matsuhisa, is probably one of the best Japanese chefs anywhere.
Itâs a restaurant Iâve been to many times in NYC. 20 years ago there was basically nothing I could eat. Theyâd make me avocado rolls and veggie tempura. But oh how times have changed!
I was attending a conference last week in a hotel in Singapore which has the countryâs only Nobu and so I popped in with @mrsgarg for lunch. They have a bento box ð± special on the menu and I thought Iâd dare to ask if they could make it vegan. The hostess said sheâs never been asked that but would ask the chefs. And viola, this is what they prepared!
It was honestly a feast of incredibly prepared Japanese food, and so much more than I could handle for lunch but I ate everything!
What were my favorites? Believe it or not, the spinach and avocado salad was incredible. It had this very umami crunchy powder sprinkled all over and crispy slivered ginger which made the salad delicious! The rice with pickled veggies and the tofu were also incredible, as was pretty much everything else!
The world is changing! This wouldnât have been possible 10 or 20 years ago or even 5 years ago. Go vegan ð± â
This incredible meal was more than enough for 2 hungry adults to share and it cost SGD $65.
