Question 1

What kind of cuisine does Sage by Yasunori Doi serve?

Accepted Answer

Sage serves French cuisine prepared by a Japanese chef using Japanese ingredients and sensibility. It is NOT traditional Japanese food — expect classic French techniques (terrines, consommé, Madeira sauces, cheese-crusted turbot, Valrhona chocolate desserts) executed with Japanese precision and seasonal Japanese produce. At lunch, the restaurant transforms into 'Curry Rice Stand SAGE' serving Japanese-style wagyu beef curry rice. The dual identity — French fine dining at night, casual curry at lunch — is unique in Singapore.

Question 2

How much does Sage by Yasunori Doi cost?

Accepted Answer

Dinner: Classic Menu from S$98++, Chef's Omakase S$208++ (appetisers, fish, main, tarte, dessert). Wagyu Curry Rice Set at S$138++. Lunch curry rice stand is more affordable. All subject to service charge and GST.

Question 3

Is Sage really run by one person?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Chef Yasunori Doi operates entirely solo — he cooks every dish, bakes all bread (focaccia, sourdough, brioche), prepares desserts, and serves plates himself. This one-man approach means every course is personally crafted by the same hands. It creates an extraordinary level of intimacy and personal connection — you are a guest in Chef Doi's kitchen, watching a singular culinary mind at work.

Question 7

What makes Chef Doi's approach special?

Accepted Answer

Chef Doi is a craftsman in the truest sense. His passion for perfection drives every detail — from baking his own sourdough and focaccia with moromi miso butter, to sourcing seasonal Japanese ingredients for classic French dishes, to sending every guest home with a loaf of freshly baked bread as a parting gift. Regular diners describe him as warm, funny, and deeply dedicated. The one-man format means the meal is an intimate, personal experience unlike any other restaurant in Singapore.
