Luxurious Japanese Restaurant In Ion Orchard From Japan, Sen-ryo, Launches Affordable Lunch Sets From $19.80++
Enjoy value-for-money exclusive lunch sets from $19.80++ for a limited time period only!
Don't we all love to discover restaurants that serve premium ingredients indulgent menu at an affordable mid-range price?
Clearly, the third floor of ION Orchard is home to luxury boutiques and upscale ateliers so mid-range affordable finds aren’t typically associated with the upper stories here. However, don’t let sen-ryo’s daunting disguise fool you because sen-ryo prides itself in providing quality Japanese plates that won’t burn a hole in your pocket.
sen-ryo is established in Japan in 1999 and is well-known for authentic Japanese cuisine with premium but pocket-friendly creations that promise affordable-luxury at its best. In 2005, sen-ryo launched in Hong Kong to overwhelming response, and has since grown to a total of 13 outlets there. Its first Singapore outlet opened on 1 April 2021 in ION Orchard!
To commemorate its 1st Year Anniversary here, from now until 15 May 2022, sen-ryo presents special dishes and new set lunch offerings to add to its already popular ones, and an exclusive gift for dine-in customers.
What We Had
NEW LUNCH SET #01
Madai Ochazuke Set ($19.80)
If you’re seeking for a soothing and light meal like I did, this Madai Ochazuke Set is a luxe option featuring rice topped with sliced sea bream, bonito flakes, radish and leek, along with a pot of Japanese green tea broth to pour into the bowl of rice. It comes with chawanmushi and pickles.
sen-ryo also served this with something similar to rice krispies (look at my blue condiment bowl) which gave me that crunch when I mixed it in my rice. My first time having that together and I found that it was a great complement actually because it adds a little kick to the chewing experience.
Pouring in the Japanese green tea broth!
NEW LUNCH SET #02
sen-ryo Kushiyaki Set ($20.80)
If you want to have a variety of choice, this skewer-style delight with five sticks of ebi (shrimp), hotate, tsukune, shiitake (mushroom) and onion is for you. It is served with Japanese rice, chawanmushi, miso soup, salad and pickles.
