Satisfy Your Sea Urchin Cravings at UNI Gallery

Uni lovers look no further – there's a new restaurant in town dedicated to the delectable (and not to mention totally trendy) sea urchin. Opened by online premium sashimi and seafood grocer Oosterbay, UNI Gallery boasts one of the most extensive uni menus in Singapore.

The 40-seater is tucked in a rather nondescript corner in the basement of The Plaza, but is a vibrant space with an urban concept and colourful murals. Besides, aren't obscure locations are all the rage these days? 

Food-wise, purists can head straight for the à la carte selection of fresh raw uni air-flown from Japan, USA, Canada every two to three days. These range from the typical Japanese Bafun and Murasaki uni to more exquisite varieties like the Japanese Higashizawa Shiro Uni and Japanese Hadate Shiro Uni. Depending on the time of year, seasonal uni varieties are also available. 

Or, have the Uni Tokusen Sashimi platter, which comes with one uni sashimi and the chef's choice of six other types of sashimi. The suggested way to enjoy the platter is to start with the white fish, move on to the darker, red fish, followed by the sweet Botan shrimp and finally, the moreish uni.
