It’s not a lesser-known fact that speed gives you the thrills! The Japanese handroll bar, Rappu is evidence of that. Here, customers are encouraged to finish their food within 4 seconds in order to ensure maximum enjoyment. It is said that music makes us eat in a different way.
There are various studies that indicate that listening to music while eating is likely to increase our food and drink intake. So be it wraps or rap, Rappu is the place to be! The jukebox at Rappu has an exhaustive list of rap music, right from the Wu-Tang Clan to Kendrick Lamar. So groove away to some phat rap music while you cram down sushi rolls faster than the SSC Tuatara!
The show stopper of this space is the 36 seater sushi bar where food is prepared out in the open for everyone to see. While the list is not exhaustive, the over the top creation loaded with wagyu, uni and caviar is not one to miss.
It’s a seafood frenzy for a mere $36 at Rappu. People can choose from six fresh handrolls, each one packed with a different selection of freshly caught sea creatures. Be it the innumerable options of the delicious toro, nicely chopped up pieces of hotate or the heavenly salmon brined in the restaurant itself, Rappu has it all.
Among other fillings, there is the firm but sweet Kanpachi, the popular crab meat coupled with mayonnaise and the velvety, yet smoked engawa. Throw in an additional $18 to treat yourself and your partner to a sake shot to go with the variety of sushi rolls.
However, nothing beats the gourmandizing High Roller which includes wagyu, mounds of uni, caviar and dashes of gold flakes for the quintessential satisfaction. It is without a doubt a blast of flavours in one quick bite which can be chased down with a swig of warm and cosy miso soup.
Moreover, the snack options at Rappu seem to have no end. Get the Nori popcorn for a meagre $3, the chicken cartilage karaage for double the price or the dried stingray fin for just slightly more and guarantee yourself and your date an experience like no other.
