Love sashimi? Swim on over to Fish Mart Sakuraya (#B1-84D), your all-in-one “Japanese One-Stop Centre” with a seafood station, dine-in restaurant, and even a mini supermarket. Best of all? You get to customise your own sashimi platter. Just pick your catch from the display and have it sliced fresh by the chef.
Start with top-tier sashimi like Amebi (spot prawns), Kanpachi (amberjack), Makajiki (swordfish), Hotate (scallops), salmon belly, and Maguro Chutoro (a buttery cut of tuna). Prefer your sashimi with rice? Order the Tokusen Chirashi Don - a colourful bowl of goodness. Perfect add-ons include Soft Shell Crab Maki and the must-try Salmon Kabuto Yaki (salt grilled salmon head). Bonus tip: Pick up a bottle of sake from the supermarket to pair with your meal!
Saboten Express (#01-K35 & K36)

When the tonkatsu cravings hit, Saboten Express (#01-K35 & K36) delivers fast, but never rushed. Their secret recipe? Made-to-order tonkatsu where breaded pork cutlets are fried to crispy, juicy perfection and served with cabbage, sauce and fluffy rice.
Don’t let the word “express” fool you - the chefs here take their craft seriously. Think aged pork, fresh panko breadcrumbs, high quality short grain rice… and yes, free-flow cabbage with zero service charge.
Start with the Loin Katsu Set for a rich, fatty cut, or the Tenderloin Katsu Set if you prefer something leaner - both promise that perfect crunch. Want a bit of everything? The Saboten Signature Set brings together tenderloin, loin and chicken katsu in one glorious platter.
As for non-pork options, go for the Salmon Katsu Set or Chicken Katsu Curry instead.

Malaysian cuisine strikes a different chord with its extra bold, sour, spicy and sweet fusion of flavours! It’s claimed that the folks behind PappaRich (#01-35B) go the extra mile to bring authentic Malaysian hawker fare to Singapore — even securing original recipes from Malaysian hawkers themselves!
While the variety of Nasi Lemak menu will impress you, go for the standout Nasi Lemak with Ayam Masak Merah - red spiced chicken in a slightly sweet tomato sauce served with fragrant coconut rice, half-boiled egg, ikan bilis, and punchy sambal. Try something less common: Roti Canai with Steamed Otak Otak - a spicy steamed fish paste on crispy Indian flatbread. Noodle fans, don’t miss Penang Assam Laksa, a symphony of zesty tamarind, succulent mackerel and a touch of spiciness all in one bowl.

From Selayang (just outside Kuala Lumpur), slurp up the Selayang Big Bowl Curry Noodle: rich coconut curry broth loaded with noodles, tofu puffs, egg, fishball, long beans, and prawns.
