When I first saw the name of this restaurant (Tsukada Farm), I thought it would be some vegetable themed restaurant like Vegi. Fortunately, from a meat-lover's point of view, the farm refers to chicken farm.
This Japanese group owns their own chicken farms in Miyazaki, Hokkaido and Kagoshima. The Miyazaki chicken is famous in Japan for their umami and texture.
So no surprise that this place focuses on chicken dishes, and chicken nabe with collegen (hotpot) in particular. We wanted to try different stuff this time so we decided against ordering a nabe.
We ordered the following:
A pint of Macha Beer: A lovely pint of soothing beverage. The macha matched very well with the beer. It's a bit like drinking sparkling matcha. I enjoyed it.
Charcoal Grilled Miyazaki chicken (salt): Arrived on top of a sizzling metal plate. It looked and tasted like charcoal grilled. It had good umami. At $180, some might find the pricing a bit steep.
Nagaimo mentaigoyaki: essentially a hash brown made of nagaimo (a type of yam), mentaigo and seaweed. The texture was interesting. Not bad.
Crispy chicken salad: the fried chicken strips were coated with corn flakes, crispy indeed. Unfortunately, I found the strips a bit dry. I suggest adding more dressing or to provide ponzu dips. The salad was nice, however, with tsukemono (pickled vegetables) giving it a bit of a kick.
Avocado with nori: with konbu nori paste. This was a surprising hit amongst the ladies.
Pork wrapped Onigiri :
(1) taberu chilli;
(2) teriyaki;
(3) cheese.
As a finger food, the size of the rice balls were just right. I didn't think much of them but it was another hit with the ladies.
(I forgot to take a photo.)
Bejin maki (chicken & eggplant): The rice sheet was springier than Vietnamese rice rolls. It had shredded chicken, eggplant, spring onions and a little bit of pickled vegetables. I found these very refreshing even without using the Hattcho miso (sweet miso). Recommended.
We also ordered the dessert version of it. It had red bean paste, assorted fruits and shiratama. We enjoyed it:
I also ordered a glass of "sleeping cat" sochu. It had a creamy tastes like Enma 閻魔. The small quantity might put a cat to sleep but definitely not me. I suggest they should provide at least 75 ml per glass.
On top of the very cool and modern interior overlooking the Victoria Harbour, there is even an alfresco area for smokers who want a lovely view.
I also suggest that the lights at tables could be brighter so we could see the food properly.
The bill came down to $803 for 2 adults and one child, inclusive of one beer, one sochu and a glass of red. I'd say it's not bad at all.
This shop is newly opened so they need to iron out some kinks here or there. Other than that, the service was very good.
I'll most probably return to try their chicken nabe.
Recommended.
