Fine Dining at Hide Yamamoto and View from Marina Sands Rooftop
Fine Dining at Hide Yamamoto
My sister had flown in from London yesterday afteroon and later in the evening , we decided to go for dinner. After scouring the internet for some time, I found this Restaurant called Hide Yamamoto. I called to make a reservation and a couple of hours later we were there.
The restaurant is located on the second floor of the Marina Bay sands, whilst it does not boast any viewings of the surrounding city scape, the decor more than makes up for it. It is divided into four sections aptly named after their different types of cuisine, Sushi, Robata, Tepanyaki and Ramem. We had booked a table at the Robata section. Within seconds of giving our names, we were shown to our tables by a polite waiter, which is always a welcome when visiting any restaurant, be it fine or casual dining.
We scoured the menu, for a good 10-15 minutes, spoiled for choice, until we decided on the following:
2 bowls of steamed Japanese rice, chicken with lemon grass and red chili and King Crab legs with a sauce who's name I cannot remember and last but not least a flask of sake. The service here was simply excellent, for the sake we were given a selection of crystal cups to choose from, and the food was served on very decorative plates and presented to us like a work of art. Those of you reading this are probably thinking "Yeah that's nice , but did it taste good? Well to put it simply, it was delicious! Add to that the service, the relaxing atmosphere and you truly have a winner. Highly recommended!

View From Marina Sands Rooftop
After dinner, we opted to check out the Rooftop, from afar one can see the Marina Bay sands most prominent feature stick out like a sore thumb. That of its Boat shaped rooftop, or rather a roof that is shaped like a boat. We paid $20 SGD each at the basement of Tower 3 which I thought was a rip off, and took the lift up to the 57th Floor. Upon entering the floor, you are greeted with a sign that says Marina Bay Sands and a little photo studio area for tourists who wish to pay top dollar to have a photo taken. We walked out onto the rooftop and what we saw was just simply amazing, all of Marina Bays many sky scrapers, their colorful lights reflecting in the water, the ships at harbor front, the Singapore Eye (It's not called that, but as I have found no official name, I am christening it so) all visible in a magnificently breathtaking panoramic view. It was a beautiful experience, but one that is only worth a single visit.
