Discover Japanese Culinary Delights

Chef Vikram Khatri shares a hearty recipe that help you experience the mild flavours of Asian cuisine.

Mushi Dori steamed chicken

I always felt to keep one more chicken starter, which has to be non fried. So this steamed chicken has delicate flavours of Japanese herbs just melts and tastes fantastic with Miso Hollandaise.

Baked Avocado

The buttery Plump Avocado with curried vegetables paired with healthy Buckwheat noodles is the healthy munch from Guppy’s winter menu.”

Grilled Artichoke and tomato

I Am always fond of artichokes and here they are paired with dashi poached tomatoes and on the bed of Quinoa and cauliflower porridge.

Wok-fried Soft shell crab

A perfect seafood option from Winter Sea. I just thought of dedicating it to my last meal in Singapore

Black Chicken Nabe Hot Pot

The best from Guppy’s winter menu and my personal favourite. A perfect community meal where the black chicken comes from MP Kadaknath has all good nutrition and at Guppy it gets double with all winter vegetables and soul, comforting soup, all of which is packed in a cast iron pot and served on live fire stove.
