Not so much the food itself, but the entire package made me feel like royalty...

I was visiting Singapore last year for some work-related stuff. My coworkers were busy handling their respective areas, and I was mostly there for some related IT stuff that involved a lot of waiting.
I've always liked sushi, so I decided that for once I should try eating it at what seemed like a decent sushi-place not far from the hotel - I had pretty much all day to myself. So I headed down there.
For starters the place itself was amazing; It was small and cozy, with ne guy behind a counter chopping and preparing fish. The wall behind them was covered in knives of all sorts, manufactured by a childhood friend of the chefs. I was up front to the waitress about the fact that I wasn't really a sushi connoisseur, but I generally liked Maki rolls, Nigiri, and I was looking for a nice and filling lunch. So she recommended this one item in the menu for me that consisted of a little bit of everything.

The lunch ended up being more of a multi-course thing, and while I was eating one part, the chef was already preparing the next part. Sure, it was really good, but the attentiveness of the staff to give me a wonderful lunch added to it as well, explaining along the way what I was eating and what the actual Japanese name was (they were all Japanese, by the way).

It was pricey, but not insanely so. The experience was well worth the cost.

EDIT: Found the place: https://maps.app.goo.gl/8GoXqKNqgJ5bT7LZ9
I highly recommend a visit if you ever get the chance.
