Originally from Japan, Yonehachi (est. 1976) is best known for its Okowa おこわ, or flavoured glutinous rice. Only premium grain varieties - particularly the ones cultivated in agriculturally endowed prefectures such as Iwate and Akita are sought, these dappled with brunoised vegetables, seafood and whatnot, then smooched by steam to a glorious sticky fluff.
Local F&B group Japan Foods Holding Ltd presently operates all 3 existing Yonehachi SG outlets through franchise agreements, the third at Great World City having opened earlier in March. Customers who desire to pimp their a la carte Okowa orders can pursue multitudinous set meal options made available (typically includes miso soup, Houji tea plus choice of side - gyoza, soba noodles, fried chicken among others).
