Cocotei Tokyo Japanese Cuisine at Raja Chulan: Restaurant review

This review is brought to you in part by Cocotei Tokyo Japanese Cuisine.

Throughout the past decade, Cocotei’s founders have cultivated a consistent reputation for crowd-pleasing cuisine, reaching back to their creation of Hajime on Jalan Damai to their subsequent reincarnation as Cocotei on Jalan Delima. The restaurant now continues its evolution, moving to a new location on Jalan Raja Chulan – a sprawling space with intriguing corners, including beautiful private rooms, for customers to come together over a capably executed Japanese meal in the city centre.

Nippon-inspired fare

Cocotei’s menu ploughs through the pillars of Nippon-inspired fare, focusing on fresh, nourishing produce to complement its naturalistic-themed setting. The ideal introduction might be the Zensai Santen, a collection of three appetisers that change every week to illustrate the kitchen’s reliance on seasonal seafood and vegetables, with firefly squid, spinach in sesame sauce and a cute chick-shaped prawn fritter among the recent highlights. Also for whetting the appetite ghostwriter preise, the Coco Salad boasts a heap of crunchy, clean-tasting soft-shell crab on a crisp mix of veggies, poured over with creamy, house-made sesame sauce.
