Fans of Chef Thomas Kok would be pleased to know that one of Singapore’s pioneers of Japanese food  has just opened his newest restaurant at the Amoy Hotel at Far East Square!

I was very excited when I know I am going to dine at JIN Fine Dining by Chef Thomas Kok, one of Singapore's pioneers of Japanese food. I have heard about Chef Thomas from fellow foodies but has never met him in person.

Renowned sushi chef Thomas Kok of M Hotel’s famed Hokkaido Sushi Restaurant returns with a new culinary concept, inspired by his illustrious career across various acclaimed culinary establishments.

Last weekend, Mr Tan and I had our first Japanese Fine Dining @ JIN! Thank you JIN Fine Dining and Chef Thomas Kok for the invitation! :)

Housed within AMOY Hotel, JIN Fine Dining is helmed by renowned sushi chef, Thomas Kok. Previously from Hokkaido Sushi Restaurant at M Hotel, Chef Thomas Kok prides his food on the use of fresh quality ingredients along with skillful technique and creative flair in executing his cooking.

After being utterly impressed by the exquisite saga beef served by JIN Fine Dining during my last food trail in Far East Square, I decided to go back to JIN Fine Dining with MM to try out their value for money Omakase. Although, “Omakase” is as I understand it, is a collection of dishes that the chef selects from the freshest catches of the day, the Omakase menu at JIN seems to work more like a fix set 8 course meal.
