Sapoto

About
Sapoto (written Sapōto, from the Japanese for "support") opened in 2025 on the second floor of Amara Hotel on Tanjong Pagar Road, in the unit that previously housed Sushi Yujo. The dark, low-lit room is arranged around an open grill. Chef Phang Chin Shyong, formerly head chef of Shirokane Tori-Tama, cooks at the grill, with creative direction from chef Desmond Fong.
The menus are multi-course yakitori tastings, with free-range poultry, other meats and vegetables grilled over charcoal, served alongside appetisers and rice dishes. Lunch costs S$68 (Ai) or S$98 (Rikai), and the dinner menus, Sapoto at S$148 and Yujo at S$198, can also be ordered at lunch. Prices are before service charge and GST.
A good choice for diners who want a chef-led yakitori meal at a counter without the price of a sushi omakase; the lunch sets are among the lower-priced chef's menus in Tanjong Pagar. Book online through inline. Dinner is served Tuesday to Sunday from 6pm, with last orders at 9.45pm, and lunch from 12pm to 2pm. Closed on Mondays.
