What a Japanese Mom Hate and Like About Singapore | Omoté Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 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.

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💖
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.
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 TH-camrs 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
Ghib you look good with glasses!
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 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!
最高 shuold be si bei shiok... shiok is something like umai?
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.
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 😂
My partner is Canadian, and also cannot understand English in Singapore lol
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?
はじめまして😊
シンガポールを旅行してる気分になり、今毎日見てます(*^^*)🎵‼️
シンガポールの色んな所が見れてとっても楽しいですし、勉強にもなるし、動画もみやすいのでとっても楽しいです‼️
チャンネル登録させていただきました😊✨
これからも頑張ってくださいp(^^)q🎌✨
楽しみにしてます*｡･+(人*´∀`)+･｡*🍀🎵💐💮🌠
I saw my favourite uni in the video wonder how much that box cost
I live more than 60 yrs of my life without UV and I'm still healthy today. But I still hate sunny day.
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
fkkk i wanna eat there but the queue is always so longggg
"Hate" is too strong the word for this case. Should just be "like" and "dislike".😅
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
I prefer the interview to concentrate more about her experiences in Singapore than to talk about food. But unfortunately that's the trouble with being sponsored by the restaurant. It is what it is. I must say Yuri looks very young. Food is a little pricey for my taste buds. I think I will stick to carrot cake and chilli crab from zichar stores
korean speak korean
japan speak japanese
you are the special one
why they never border to learn english as their 2nd laungue ...
Hate is a very strong word.
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.
The pork is so delicious that she start speak in English without pressure
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
i love how ghibojisan says thank you to the staff even midsentence :) kind guy
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
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
ここのシェフの話も気になる！
@3:09 Ghib has reached a new level in subtitling...sugoi! :D
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 😆
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
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
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 must go Thonson Plaza one day to try this Janpese restaurant, all the food look so unique.
Omote, see u soon.
I want to be friends with chef Nagae
The food is super good in Omote! Once again great vid !! 👏👏👏👏
This look so darn good!!! Definitely my to go list next!!
And hi to Yuri chan!
Bro hougang mrt nearby have a big pasar malam today onwards . U can come jalan jalan that area
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 👍👍👍
Very cool. Thanks! Had so much fun watching this! 👍👍👍
I always associated Yaohan with Thomson Plaza. So many good childhood memories.
👍 that was how Thomson Yaohan came about.
These dishes looks really nice outside . I’m sure they will taste great too . I am gonna visit it soon .😋
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.
I love Japanese food! Wish there are more Japanese restaurants like Omote' here in Florida.
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..
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.
Yeah Yun's very sophisticated but fun really no airs abt her,btw even if she's just a hse-wife(doesn't matter)
Can I request Ghib san’s set when I next go to Omote? Every dish look so good!
Glad to know Yuri san and the food look so yummy and glad to understand how she feel about living in Singapore
I love how the first beer goes down that quickly. DRINK STRONGG!!
Super mount Chirashi look like ice kacang? The food like WOW, I’m hungry.
Does Japanese family hire maids or does the women takes care of the kids and house since they don't work
Mouth-watering...
行ってみたいけど、値段どんなもんなんだろ。
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.
I think I know her.... I was working at another place an I believe I served someone named Yuri.
👍🤩😁😊😊🥰😋😋😋😋😋must try.
They all looks good😋
Hi Ghib! Hope you enjoy!
She can get those facekini to block sun XD
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!
Chirashi!!!!!!!!!!! But that is a small mountain of food…enjoyable to watch you two eating that much food…😁
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。
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 😄
Wow the food looks sumptious/yum!
You look good,different but more pro
The food is too delicious
Wow, the food looks really great! Next stop for me to check out!
The food looks awesome
Summer in SG? Its 365 days of summer here 🤣
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
The food so shiok lei…lol
チリクラブでは無くてソフトクラブでは？
OMG! The food looked so good...I hope Yuri enjoyed her time in Singapore so far. Hopefully she can make Singapore her second home
How are they eating so much 😅
みたいな
1st
how you finish all this food?
I hope there is no food wastage , can bring back to Mother In Law to try 🤣
Of course, we dabao the remaining😆
I just went there not long ago, it’s really good isn’t it?
Loved it!
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.
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.
Super Mount Chirashi is probably inspired from ice-kachang
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~
すごい！Will try Omote.
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！
Like your video all the time. 👍👍👍😍
The food made me hungry
There was a Spring Garden restaurant more than 30 years ago.
I miss dimsum at thimson kelong restaurant; what others come to mind? :)
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 :)
いわせ～（笑
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.
Thanks for featuring yuri-san she's so adorable and positive!
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.
Lady is right. The local accent really is awful lol
Gonna colab with stackedhomes again?
