Ikoi
Japanese A la carte Buffet at Hotel Mirama

Located on the ground floor of Mirama hotel is Ikoi, one of the better Japanese A-la-carte buffets in tow.  401 Havelock Road, Singapore 169631
 *The sitting space isn't that large, so it is advisable to get a booking.*
 
Ordered On:11Feb2018
 *Their complementary samplers. The warm soups really helped warmed up the inside and complement the majority of cold dishes we were ordering.*
 *The Tempura was well fried and staff were still relatively attentive to give fresh tempura dipping for the next wave of tempura orders.*
*Good shashimi cuts of sword fish, yellow tail, tuna, octopus and salmon.* 
*The Karage Chicken were pretty good too. Fresh fry and a balanced seasoning.*

There are definitely much more options (some not pictured) to select from but there were the few that we stuck to. The shashimi(Raw fish) quality is better than most buffet spread places, but the probable downer is the long wait times especially when you're making a second/third order after the first. We waited a good 10-20mins for the next subsequent orders, especially so for the shashimi cuts.

All-be-it at the time of this review, they had a disclosure notice that due to changing labor laws, patrons were to be more understanding of the reduced service staff to keep up with demand. The restaurant was about 50% occupied as off 1330hrs on a Sunday and the reduced flow of food was a little disappointing.

If they could cut the wait times, the dining experience will be much more enjoyable.
