Waku Ghin

When a restaurant boasts guests who have been returning regularly since its opening, it’s clearly doing something right. Chef Tetsuya Wakuda’s Waku Ghin, which opened 15 years ago at Marina Bay Sands, certainly fits this description, having maintained a level of consistency and excellence that has only grown its cohort of repeat customers. Entering the softly lit restaurant, diners are immediately transported from the bright lights of the bustling mall to an atmosphere of sheer intimacy, courtesy of designer Yohei Akao. Guests may choose to dine in the bar-dining area or at the more exclusive chef’s table. At the 10-seat counter, guests enjoy a seafood-forward omakase experience with a front-row view of the delicate preparation and plating. Each course is a delight for all the senses, delivering a precise balance of salinity, sweetness and acidity, alongside a subtle creaminess that hints at Wakuda’s French culinary background.
