    BT CLUB kicks off its first dining experience of the new year – The Art of Tempura – at Tentsuru, one of Singapore’s premier high-end tempura restaurants on Feb 22 (Sat). Master chef Daiki Kawaguchi has curated a special seasonal omakase menu exclusively for readers of The Business Times, featuring ingredients flown directly from Japan.

    With an illustrious 18-year career at Michelin-starred restaurants such as Tankuma and Hanagatami in Osaka and Tokyo, as well as co-founding Bangkok’s renowned Tenharu, Chef Kawaguchi is celebrated for his innovative and precise approach to tempura artistry.

    Now leading the kitchen at Tentsuru, he presents a carefully crafted nine-piece tempura menu – highlighting delicacies such as tiger prawn, Hokkaido scallop and the restaurant’s signature uni tempura – all designed to embody the Japanese spirit of omotenashi (heartfelt hospitality).
