    [SINGAPORE] Ten years ago, when the mainstream sushi restaurant scene was dominated by major chains such as Sushi Tei and Sakae Sushi, a casual 12-seater sushi bar opened quietly in Thomson Plaza. 

    Since then, the Omote sushi brand, an udon bar named Umai, and a salad kiosk called Six Hands have spawned under the Omote Asia Group (OAG) banner.

    The group has two new Japanese fusion brand concepts in the works, along with regionalisation in the pipeline.
