Benkay Japanese Restaurant New Ala Carte Menu Release
For the traditionalist, there’s also the California Maki, sushi roll with vegetables and crab stick.

One dish I found to be pretty unique was the Hot Green Tea Poured over Rice in a Bowl served with Deep Fried Prawn Tempura. This was the first time I poured green tea on my rice! The outcome was quite similar to eating Teochew porridge. *LOL* A healthy dish indeed.

The Traditional Deep Fried Beancurd was quite a hit among us for its smooth and soft texture.

Last but not least, ending our meal with a sweet tooth was Macha Purin or green tea pudding.
Macha Purin (Green tea pudding)
The thin layer of jelly on top made the pudding shiny and attractive, begging to be eaten. Scoop it with a spoon and be taken away by the firm and smooth texture of the pudding, fragrant with the smell of green tea. Best part was, the pudding was not overly sweet, balanced perhaps by the slightly bitter green tea. A good balance of sweet and bitter, definitely.
