Winter Set Menu - R349 per person (excluding gratuity)

This winter, we invite you to take a seat and surrender to warmth, flavour, and creative craftsmanship. Yatai’s Winter Set Menu is a five-course journey through Japanese comfort food — reimagined with bold ingredients, seasonal depth, and just the right touch of playful sophistication.

Designed to be enjoyed slowly and shared generously, each course highlights the soul of winter cooking while showcasing modern Japanese techniques and unexpected layers of flavour.

What’s on the menu:

Miso Soup Bomb
A whimsical yet deeply comforting start — rich miso broth encapsulated in a flavour-
packed “bomb” that dissolves into warmth at the table.

Wood Ear Mushroom Salad
Earthy, umami-driven mushrooms paired with seasonal greens and a light dressing,
offering balance and crunch between courses.

Pork Cheek Robatayaki
Fire-grilled to tender perfection, our robata-style pork cheek is smoky, caramelised,
and melt-in-your-mouth good — a true winter indulgence.

Chicken Katsu Curry Udon
A bold and hearty main, with crispy chicken katsu served over thick, chewy udon
noodles in a deeply spiced Japanese curry. Comforting, rich, and satisfying.

Shiso Sorbet
A delicate and refreshing finish. This herbaceous sorbet cleanses the palate with
light citrus and floral notes — a perfectly balanced end to a deeply flavourful
experience.

Crafted for those who crave warmth, flavour, and creativity, the Winter Set Menu is available for a limited time. Whether you're a regular or visiting for the first time, this seasonal experience is a beautiful way to reconnect over food.
