Legendary Kyoto Omurice Chef Motokichi Yukimura Brings His Culinary Magic to Singapore

Food enthusiasts who adore Japanese cuisine are likely familiar with Kichi Kichi Omurice – the wildly popular Kyoto restaurant where securing a table feels like winning the lottery.

The mastermind behind this culinary hotspot is none other than the charismatic Chef Motokichi Yukimura, whose theatrical cooking performances and mouthwatering omurice have earned him international fame.

For Singaporeans who've dreamed of tasting his creations but couldn't make the trip to Japan, prepare for some exciting news: The legendary chef is bringing his talents to our shores!

The announcement came directly from Motokichi himself via an Instagram post on June 1 that sent foodies into a frenzy. "Guess who's dropping in? Yes – the legendary omurice-flipping maestro from Kichi Kichi Omurice, Kyoto is coming to Singapore," the post excitedly revealed.

A Rare Culinary Experience

According to a June 2 press release, Chef Motokichi will host exclusive cooking showcases at Tsukimi Hamburg's Jurong Point outlet on July 11-12 from 7pm to 9pm. But this isn't your ordinary dining event – attendance comes with strict limitations that make it even more special.

  • Exclusive Access: Only 20 lucky attendees per session

  • Ticket Availability: Just 40 pairs available through a special promotion

  • How To Win: Become an RE&S dining group member and spend minimum $20 at &Joy Japanese Food Street (Nex or Jurong Point) between June 3-30

The Ultimate Omurice Experience

"This collaboration represents an unprecedented opportunity for Singaporean food lovers," said a Tsukimi Hamburg spokesperson. "Chef Motokichi's visit coincides with our menu refresh featuring his signature dishes."

The new permanent additions launching July 10 include:

  • $16.80 KICHI KICHI HAMBURG OMURICE:A masterpiece featuring demiglace fried rice with edamame and chicken, enveloped in signature "tornado" omelette and crowned with juicy hamburg steak - all drizzled with the famous Kichu Kiuchi demiglace sauce.
