NAMI brings a vibrant, pan-Asian pulse to The Shore, channelling East Asian dining through a modern, creative lens. The kitchen leans into recognisable techniques and flavours, then dials them up with confident fusion touches and a fondness for the bold and the punchy. It is the kind of menu that invites curiosity, conversation, and a little table theatre.

Small plates set the tempo: edamame kissed by the grill and glossed with chilli oil and togarashi; sesame prawn toast lifted with ginger, garlic, and a lick of black garlic mayo. There is an easy, share-as-you-go rhythm here, where textures crunch, sauces linger, and heat builds in pleasing, layered waves.

Larger plates carry the torch with smoky, aromatic swagger: shredded chilli beef with umami punch and miso grilled fish balanced by a bright pickled ginger salad. Familiar comforts sidle up in the form of prawn crackers and Chinese greens, offering crisp, salty snap and garlicky savour to round out the spread.

To finish, NAMI plays a playful, cross-cultural encore: ginger sticky toffee pudding with butterscotch and vanilla ice cream, or a coconut and lime brownie cooled by coconut ice cream. The atmosphere mirrors the cooking—contemporary, convivial, and full of momentum. Book in, gather your favourites, and let the fun begin.
