Hi there,
I was roaming around Serangoon Nex last week, trying to settle my hungry kid during lunch hour, came across this Tepanyaki restaurant YakiYakiBo which is at Shokutsu 10. I usually patronize Ichibanboshi quite a bit, and thought of changing somewhere else, and we spotted YakiYakiBo which was not very crowded on that day, so we thought of giving it a try.
Once seated we flipped through the menu and decided to go for one seafood set and one chicken set. We were first served with icy cold stick salad, and when I said “icy cold”, it literally mean it. The dressing goes well with the carrots and cucumber sticks.
Next we were served with the seafood set ($18.90++), which comes with 1 pc of salmon, 2 scallops, 3 shrimps & some squid, all cooked in the open concept teppan kitchen. My son loves the salmon, and my mum seemed to be rather happy with the scallops, but I feel the squid is slightly rubbery to my likings. Other than that, it is a good combo.
My order of chicken set ($13.90++) faired much better, the chicken thighs was nicely cooked, with crispy skin and also coated with nice portion of garlic flakes and spring onion. The black pepper sauce and BBQ sauce enhanced the combination of the succulent of the chicken meat with the crispyness of the chicken skin. To my surprise, the chicken itself does not feel oily at all, and make you feel like having more, my son will definitely agree so, judging by how he constantly asking me for some more chicken meat. Both set came with teppan beansprout to even out the meaty portion of the meal.
And to round it up, we were served with 2 slices of watermelon on each set, and it was a delightful end to the meal.
Yakiyakibo might not be one of the best Teppanyaki place in Singapore, but it sure serves decent and value for money teppanyaki meal, plus the enclosed open kitchen concept is good for people like me who hates to smell like a hot plate after teppanyaki meal.
Oh and they also serve the teppanyaki on toasted bread and part of the menu is on Japanese pancakes, Okonomiyaki, perhaps I might try it out next time.
They also have a reward card system, and every $20 spent entitle you to a stamp, the drill is that as you collect more of the stamp, you will get some freebies along the way, a nice little gesture to thank customers for returning, not a bad idea indeed.
Right now they are having some promotions, like the pork series at $9.90, do check it out.
