Z'en Japanese Cuisine @ UE Square

It's mama birthday
and after alot alot of brain storming i have decided to talk the folks to Z'en.
Z'en Japanese Cuisine is under the same management of En Holdings
Z'en is the ideal restaurant for business dinners as well as casual gatherings for young working professionals, loving couples, both locals and expatriates.
The whole ambience is really fantastic. Both the indoors and outdoor area has its own advantage.
It was kinder hot that night so we asked for a indoor table.
They gave us a table at the mezzanine levelwhich is like Tatami style,
an area most suitable for private celebrations or business dinners which necessitate a more intimate space.




Sashimi 3mori. ($28) one serving of salmon and 2 servings of amebi. Fresh sashimi can never go wrong.


Creamy crab croquett. A good item for sharing cos too much of that can be too overwhelming as its cream base.


Unagi topped with yam don. ($18) nothing too fantastic


Tempura Mori. ($22) This is not too bad. Crunchy and soft on the inside.


Kani nabe($38) Fresh and big.


Everything dumped into the hotpot. After20min of boiling all the ingredient together, the soup is actually very nice.


Unagi Fried Rice.($12) Looks really good eh ? its abit saltish and moist. i prefer the garlic rice from En.


Service wise i much prefer En's
Im not too sure if its only the server who do not know their menu or the servers are just not well thought.
When i asked for recomendations she almost told me everything from the the menu.
I guess i can do a better job.
First few dishes of our food came very fast
till the last 2dishes the tempura and fried rice has a time lag of almost 20mins.
Nonetheless i will go back to Z'en again.


I need to visit En and Z'en once more to decide which restuarant serves better food.
