Wakuwaku Yakiniku is a halal Yakiniku.&nbsp; You get to order premium cuts of beef and grill it yourself to your desired degree of doneness.&nbsp;&nbsp; Alternatively, there are also donburis where the meat (and rice) is already prepared for you. Wakuwaku is heavily reminiscent of Japanese izakayas.&nbsp; Hugely popular, the place was nearly full house when I arrived on a weekday evening.&nbsp; The place is not big so reservations are a must.&nbsp; I have personally seen walk-ins asked to wait for a table. Though the decor may not suggest it, there are some real gastronomic gems to be discovered here.\u00a0 Wakuwaku has a nativel Japanese chef, which may account for the excellence of its dishes. For the main event (the meat), you can choose the cut you like or go for a platter which includes a variety of cuts. Misuji (Top Blade) $18 This cut is a little too dry for my liking.&nbsp; They provide garlic butter which you heat up and melt and then use as a dipping sauce for this cut. Nakaochi Karubi (Ribs Finger) $14 This one is a little too chewy. Sagari (Hanging Tender) $12 Finally, Goldilocks found her favorite cut of beef. &nbsp; This is so tender.&nbsp; You can have the meat on its own or dip into their housemade yakiniku sauce.&nbsp; Their yakiniku sauce is absolutely delicious.&nbsp; It is feels lighter than the other yakiniku sauces out there. Unagi $18 The unagi is expertly grilled &#8212; it remains plump and juicy.&nbsp;&nbsp; Truffle Yakiniku Don $18 I am glad the chef did not go overboard with the truffle oil (probably got to do with Japanese sense of aesthetic).&nbsp; The beef was very tender, the firm mushrooms provide textural balance to the rice, the pickles provide balance. Even the rice was delicious. Kimchi $4 This is the best kimchi I have tasted.&nbsp; It is freshly made every day.&nbsp; In other words, what you are served and eat was made that day. Most kimchi is simply too strong and jarring.&nbsp; Every bite is like a punch to the senses.&nbsp; This kimchi is a lot milder and has the right balance of sweetness and spiciness. This kimchi works great as an appetiser or as a side dish. Yakko Green Chilli $6 This is incredible.&nbsp; The green&nbsp; chilli has been marinated overnight in miso so it has a very muted zing of chili but also the savoury and umami of miso.&nbsp; Paired with cold tofu, cold shoyu and bonito flakes, it works as a great side dish or palate cleanser. Lime Mint Soda $6.50 You need something citrusy to counter the inherent fat of the beef.&nbsp; Wakuwaku Yakiniku 27 Bali Lane Singapore 189683 Wakuwaku Yakiniku &#8211; Halal &#8211; Home &#8211; Singapore &#8211; Menu, prices, restaurant reviews | Facebook"}
