met up with my 2 jc mates last thurs. had dinner at this jap restaurant - sho teppan - at ion.
~ may and jennifer ~
i think their specialities are the frying dishes whereby you can use their electric stove to stir fry your food. but somehow, jen and me ordered the soup base meal and it ended up something like steamboat. the food is not too bad, but a little too saltish as you eat.
May is now a Mrs. so happy for her. finally tie the knot with her bf all the way from jc. unlike my indonesia-chi colleague whose plan is to earn enuff here and return to indonesia, this burmese gal is planning to stay here with her now-husband, who is also a burmese. sweeeet!!
after that was coffee session at starbucks at the building nxt to wheelock. it's a 24hr outlet. and sad to know, the BK has cease to exist. boohoo... i still remb mugging at that BK for A levels.....
good to knoe they r all doing well :)

i want to introduce this jap buffet at akira restaurant, which is located in link hotel which in turn, is located near tiong bahru plaza, abt 2 stations away.
this restuarant was intro to me by yy. went online to check it out and realised that the reviews on this restaurant are mainly adverse. pple complaining that the serving time is vvvv long, the portion is vvvv small for repeat orders etc.
but, having faith in yy's standard, i still decided to give it a try.
and yes, all those comments on the net abt this restuarant are unjustified!!!!
the staff are friendly. the serving time is short. the variety is large. the food is fresh. and the price, given the kind of food included in the buffet, is low! each pax is abt $35 and u get to enjoy unlimited supply of wadever jap food u can think of. no joke! and if u spend >$50, the parking is free!
we were seated at the sushi bar and saw how the chef handled the food. they will only cut and prepare when u order, at least for the sashimis and sushies. but do not be decieved by the menu, cux the menu will show v big portion while in actual fact, the portion they serve is not that big. i think they will serve according to the nbr of pple u have. the more pple, the bigger the serving. but large or small, u can always order again and again and again. so i dont see that being an issue.
sis has decided to go there for our father's day dinner. and when i have the time, i will go write some reviews to give this restaurant the justice it deserves!
it's really highly recommended. go go gooooo give it a try!! this is the place for you if you are mad on jap food.

went sands casino last last wkend. many shops still unopened. seems like all are branded shops. unlike wad i tot, the casino is big.
does not differ much from that in macau. just that i din expect the scale to be the same.
dinner at nite was at long beach seafood restaurant in east coast. not bad. can give it a try if u dont mind the travelling time :)
