What to eat at Takashimaya Food Hall

When it comes to food options, Takashimaya has a huge selection from cafes and restaurants to kiosks and food court stalls, but this list will mostly focus on the mall’s iconic and sprawling Takashimaya Food Hall at Basement 2. It’s long been a pit stop for locals and visitors looking for imported food gifts or just a quick meal. A variety of bakeries, street food kiosks and ice cream joints are also clustered here!

1. Ebisu Sando Kyoto

Get authentic, made-to-order Japanese sandwiches at Ebisu Sando Kyoto. We recommend the best-selling Pork Cutlet Sando (from $14), but if you’re feeling bougie, you can try out their Wagyu Roast Beef Sando ($28) as well. Apart from these savoury options, they also have soups such as the Prawn Bisque ($3.80), a thick and creamy broth made with fresh prawns.

Tsuru-Koshi Udon is a casual Japanese restaurant with an extensive menu featuring both hot and cold udon, donburi bowls, and a selection of side dishes from chashu to tempura. With over 20 different udon bowls to choose from, including the creamy Tonkotsu Udon ($8) and the more piquant Curry Udon ($9.50), diners will easily be spoilt for choice. While the soup and sauces are pretty standard, customers swear by the noodles, which have an elastic texture for extra smooth slurping. Rice sharks should make a beeline for the Ebi Tendon ($17.80).

First starting as a soda and ice cream maker in Ginza, Shiseido Parlour now sells a myriad of treats, including their Chocolavion. They don’t come cheap, though; these little luxuries will set you back $40 for 24 pieces. Other gorgeous gift boxes include the La Ganache ($25 for 12) and the Custard Pudding ($45 for six).

Some bestsellers include their Matcha Kasutera ($30), which is a green tea sponge cake, and the White Peach Mochi ($22 for eight), which features a sweet white peach bean paste wrapped in chewy mochi skin.

Yonehachi is a one-of-a-kind restaurant serving up okowa, a glutinous rice dish that comes mixed with a variety of ingredients. The okowa set meals at Yonehachi are reminiscent of the healthier meals found in onsens of Japan, featuring different types of okowa such as red bean, chestnut, and salmon flavours.

Each okowa set meal comes with a choice of five different flavours: red bean, salmon, chestnut, sansai, and an extra seasonal option. It’s all pretty affordable, so we recommend going for the full monty Shio Saba Shokado Set ($16.90) that comes with four side dishes, miso soup, and complimentary Houji tea. The Black Vinegar Chicken Shokado Set ($16.90) comes with chicken cubes fried with root vegetables and is the most popular meal at their flagship Japanese branch.

9. Mr Obanyaki

Mr Obanyaki is known for their taiyaki and obanyaki, which are fish-shaped and round pancakes, respectively. Drawing up long queues is the Red Bean Taiyaki ($2.60) that’s generously packed with lightly mashed red beans, giving a varied texture. If you want to bring these home, you can heat them up in the toaster to get them crisp again, as the exterior gets slightly mushy after a while. Other popular items include the Mochi & Chocolate Obanyaki ($2.80) and the Chocolate Taiyaki ($2.60).

At Mini One, you’ll be blessed with the aroma of buttery croissants fuming through the food hall if you’re lucky enough to catch them during their baking schedules. Just like their name implies, Mini One sells miniature croissants that are hard to resist. Soft and fluffy, you can get 100g worth of mini croissants—around four to five pieces—at $2.80.

Besides croissants, another crowd favourite is the Strawberry & White Chocolate ($3.80 for 100g), which features a chewy strawberry dough packed with really stretchy mochi.

12. Juchheim

Juchheim specialises in traditional German cakes called baumkuchen. The cakes are baked in-house at the small kitchen area right behind the store. A huge metal rod spins in a massive oven as it’s dipped in cake batter every few seconds. The cakes in question are dense but full of flavour, pocketed in each of the caramelised layers. The original Baumkuchen (from $21) varies in price depending on the size. If you just want to purchase snacks here, the flavoured butter cookies Teegeback ($25 for 85g) are a good pick.

13. Venchi

If you’re looking for rich and super dark chocolatey ice cream, go straight to the very end of the food hall for Venchi, a famous gourmet Italian chocolate brand. The small kiosk in Takashimaya hosts all their bestsellers from their gelato to bark chocolates. Stick with classics such as the dark chocolate Chocoviar 75% and Green Pistachio From Bronte, but know that they’re definitely one of the pricier ice cream joints out there with prices starting at $11 for a Mini—featuring up to two flavours—and $12 for Regular, which allows you to choose up to three flavours.

14. Peck

Peck is the brainchild of the same people behind Four Leaves Bakery, filling a very special niche of cheap Italian bread in Singapore; it’s also my go-to spot for ciabatta. Treats offered here include the Ham Cheese Focaccia ($3.10) and Panino Caprese ($3.80), an airy, fluffy bread packed with mozzarella and white cheese, tomato, and fresh basil. For something very hearty, I recommend the Cheese Ciabatta ($4.40), which is large, chewy, and delightfully savoury.

There’s something incredibly nostalgic about biting into one of these iconic wafer sandwiches from Kobe Fugetsudo. One of the first snacks that started the Western sweets obsession in Japan, it has become a symbol of luxury and is often purchased as gifts for friends and family. They don’t come cheap, with a box of 27 Petite Gaufres going for $33.

17. Bankaku

Yukari shrimp crackers are one of the more elusive Japanese luxury goods you can find in Takashimaya. Bankaku improves on the traditional shrimp cracker recipe by baking them over a charcoal fire, resulting in an explosion of umami flavours with a wholesome crackly surface and a nutty aftertaste. A box of eight pieces will set you back $13, while the bigger box of 33 pieces will set you back $70.

18. Kimukatsu

Kimukatsu tonkatsu attempts to replicate the intricacies of mille-feuille desserts. The way they’ve gone about it is impressive—you can expect up to 25 layers of thinly sliced pork that are layered and deep-fried into a delicious pork cutlet. A regular Tonkatsu (Pork) Set ($17.80) includes rice, miso soup, cabbage, and fresh pickles to go along with a large, crispy pork cutlet. If you’d like Japanese curry to go along with your katsu, opt for the Tonkatsu Kare ($19.80) instead.

20. Torasho Ramen Bar

Affiliated with the acclaimed Torasho Ramen And Charcoal, Torasho Ramen Bar offers a similar brand of rich and flavourful ramen. If you’re here for the first time, be sure to try the classic Tonkotsu (from $13), which sports a thick, porky tonkotsu broth with silky ramen and pork chashu that’s grilled to perfection. For a spicier kick, get the Spicy Tonkotsu Level 3 (from $15), which adds the highest degree of spice you can get to the same delectable broth.

If you’re entering the Food Hall from its main entrance, then you won’t miss St. Leaven Bakery, a bakery that’s prominently situated near there. There’s a good range of bread here, including hearty treats such as the Chicken Mushroom Bun ($2.40). There’s also the popular Matcha Bun ($3.30), which features a soft matcha bread coated with a matcha biscuit crunch and green tea powder.
