Hiyoko 2.0, A Fresh Take on Japanese Comfort

Sometimes, all you need is a good Japanese meal, a cozy corner, and a little time to slow down.

Say hello again to Hiyoko 2.0 at ASHTA District 8, where contemporary Japanese flavours, handcrafted bentos, and warm hospitality come together in a refreshed space that feels familiar, but definitely not basic.

Think warm wood, soft lighting, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a calm atmosphere that makes you want to stay just a little longer. Basically, the kind of place that works for a quick lunch or a slow dinner.

Bento, But Make It a Whole Mood

Hiyoko 2.0 brings Japanese comfort food with a seriously extensive lineup. From chicken karaage, katsu, and teriyaki to Wagyu Tongue, Gyudon, smoked shortplate, salmon, king prawns, and unagi, there’s plenty to keep your next visit interesting.

One dish to keep on your radar? The 8 Hours Smoked Shortplate with Garlic Butter. Slow-smoked, rich, and buttery, it’s the kind of plate that needs absolutely zero introduction once it hits the table.

Craving something a little lighter? Go for salmon sashimi, salmon steak, tilapia, or king prawns, and round things out with comforting sides like chawanmushi, agedashi tofu, onsen egg, tamago, and lotus chips.

And obviously, there’s curry and udon for those days when only a proper bowl of comfort will do.

Matcha O’Clock, Anyone?

The experience doesn’t stop at the savoury stuff. Hiyoko 2.0 also brings Gokago Matcha, made with premium ceremonial-grade matcha from Kyoto, into the mix. Go classic, make it a latte, or simply make it part of your matcha moment.

For dessert, the lineup goes from sorbets and gelato to purin, hojicha seasalt panna cotta, cheesecake, and tiramisu. So yes, leaving room for dessert is basically part of the plan.

Whether you’re dropping by for a handcrafted bento, catching up over dinner, or just in need of a matcha break, Hiyoko 2.0 makes Japanese dining feel easy, warm, and effortlessly good.

Good food, good space, good mood.
