Quick Look: Waku Ghin, Singapore

  • April 21, 2011
  • Brad A. Johnson

Waku Ghin at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore is Tetsuya Wakuda’s first second restaurant outside of Sydney.  It’s nothing like his original in Australia, and it’s no less amazing. This is a sort of luxe teppanyaki like nobody’s ever done it before.  Every guest or party has their own chef who cooks everything in front of you.  From start to finish, superb. And the service is as graceful as it is artful. Truly one of the best new restaurants in the world. Here’s a glimpse:

Feeling blessed. Out of more than 10,000 entries from 70 countries, I've been shortlisted in two categories in the 2021 Food Photographer of the Year competition. Thank you, @foodphotoaward ⁠⁠ 97 18
Maybe I’m biased because I grew up eating this kind of sausage from the old German smokehouses in the Texas Hill Country, but I believe the dry hunter sausages from Central Europe — landjäeger, gyulai, cabanossi and the like — are some of the best charcuterie in the world. And I finally found them in OC at Mattern Sausage Deli in Orange. Story online now at ocregister.com @ocregister⁠⁠ 99 6
