Shinzo Japanese Cuisine started in 2013 fueled by a passion to bring affordable high-quality omakase to Singapore. The word Shinzo means heart in Japanese. Having spent more than 39 years honing his skills as a sushi shokunin (sushi artisan), Chef Patrick Tan knows that the best sushi is made from the heart.

Chef Tan takes great pride in making sure he maintains an intimate setting in his sushi bar. He wants every seat in the house to be the best so that guests have full view of their personal chefs in working on their creations. Chef Tan believes that this is one of the highlights of the Shinzo experience. He is a perfectionist who is known for shaping the culture at many renowned fine dining Japanese restaurants in Singapore, including the Sushi Jin by Les Amis Group, Nogawa and Sushi Chiharu.

At Shinzo, one can expect nothing less than the freshest ingredients flown in directly from Japan. Just as the ingredients varies with the seasons in Japan, so does Shinzo’s menu. Chef Tan constantly pushes the envelope of culinary creativity, such as fusing non-Japanese ingredients like foie gras and century egg with traditional Japanese cuisine. (Jun 2020)
