EXCITING NEW KAPPO-STYLE RESTAURANT, TAKAYAMA,
NOW OPEN AT DOWNTOWN GALLERY


With Executive Chef Taro Takayama at the helm, Takayama promises an intimate epicurean encounter steeped in the tradition of fine Japanese cuisine.

Discover the taste and artistry of refined Japanese dining at Takayama, the newly opened kappo-style restaurant by Chef Taro Takayama. Located at Downtown Gallery, Takayama showcases a curated medley of authentic Japanese flavours in its multi-course menu prepared in front of guests by Chef Taro and his team.

Takayama’s influence originates from Japan’s culinary capital, Osaka, which came to be known during the Edo period as “the kitchen of the world”, and where people, to this day, take great pride in their local cuisine. The menu, inspired by the four seasons of Japan, celebrates ingredients at the peak of their flavours. Abalone + Uni, Takayama’s signature dish, is a product of this inspiration, beautifully reflecting Chef Taro’s philosophy of using seasonal produce and preserving the integrity of their flavours in his creations. Complementing the menu are beverages also curated with the changing seasons in mind.

At the heart of dining at Takayama is the spirit of omotenashi, or whole-hearted Japanese hospitality, graciously delivered to every guest in the exclusive ambience of this 1,184 square-foot, 32-seater restaurant. The main dining room features two kappo counters for seven and five guests, respectively, as well as a booth that seats two and another that seats four. Alternatively, there are two private dining rooms that accommodate six and eight guests, respectively.

Diners at Takayama have a firsthand view of Chef Taro and his team bringing ingredients to life—from the sight, sound and smell, to the exquisite detailing of every artful creation. Luxury, craft and theatre come together in perfect balance for a truly exceptional dining experience.

Formerly Chef de Cuisine at Mandarin Orchard Singapore, Executive Chef Taro’s culinary calling is deeply rooted in his birthplace of Wakayama, near Osaka, and in the comforting taste of dishes from his childhood.

Chef Taro began his career at three-star Michelin restaurants, Kashiwaya and Koryu, in Osaka, before being appointed Master Chef at the residence of the Japanese Ambassador to Singapore. There, he served up his creations at high-profile events and to esteemed celebrities and dignitaries, including Japan’s Crowne Prince Naruhito and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

At Takayama, Chef Taro continues to delight diners with his distinctive culinary style that celebrates the authentic flavours of Japanese food at its finest.
