Lunch at Ayumu, our most frequently visited sushi place for omakase. Ingredients are fresh and consistently good. Chef Shintaro’s sushi is the best.
Dinner at Sushi Ayumu by Masa Ishibashi. It was our 10th Anniversary dinner so I decided to choose my wife's favourite, Japanese cuisine, omakase!
The course started with beautiful appetizers, they were light, sour and elegant. It definitely makes us want more of the good food. My wife loved the grilled scallop in seaweed, it was simple but the smell of the grilling penetrated the crunchy and fresh scallop. It was heavenly.
The seafood, sashimi, I especially like the otoro, the rest of the seafood was very fresh and crunchy. There was also ikura+uni rice, the creaminess from uni, saltiness & texture from ikura together with the flavourful rice was a perfect match. Dessert was Hokkaido peach and honeydew.
Overall service was flawless and quality was great.
For the price, I was hoping to experience more exotic seafood, variety is lacking.

Aesthetically pleasing, fresh ingredients and the menu that the chef has curated is definitely master-class level. There is a unique taste with the sushi rice that connected perfectly well. One of our favourite is the Hotate ( scallop ). Head chef Shintaro-san has definitely up the level of Ayumu.
Fantastic experience here. Service is impeccable! Will def be back! Thank you chef and staff Joanna who have served us tonight 😊
Had a great Omakase lunch alone at Sushi Ayumu by Masa Ishibashi served by chef Shintaro. Excellent service and superb food. Please refer to the photos for the full course of Yayoi, except the miso soup, which I forgot to take photo.
Everything is beyond perfect and I really enjoyed a bit of indulgence in the middle of the week. Definitely worth every dollar.
I made reservation on Chope, rather smooth. Quickly after I made reservation in Chope, relieved WhatsApp message to confirm whether I have the vaccination tick. I arrived on time, my seat and table have been well setup, right in front of chef Shintaro. It’s an art to observe how he prepared food.
Overall a wonderful experience, will bring friends to visit again, maybe try dinner next time!
p.s. just a tiny suggestion - If the staff can help to refill my teacup timely or even change to a new teacup so that my tea is always hot and fresh, that would make the experience even better😊 thank you!
Love the Omakase lunch here, especially at the table of Chef Shintaro! Don’t forget to ask for the specials!!
Wonderful experience at Sushi Ayumu by Masa Ishibasi. Superb food quality in this sushi house. We ordered Yayoi set and worth every penny we paid for this experience. Staffs are attentive and reservation is easily booked through Chope.
