Last night's Shokudo dinner with Vanessa, Denise and Weiching... AND birthday boy (terribly belated) Seng Keat was yummilicious *slurps* The last time I went there was with Yue (and the usual suspects). The food we chose to eat weren't really fantastic (cold soba.. sob sob.) because I didn't know what to recommend since it was my first time there. But this time round, we got wiser. Ching did her research and we went in there prepared, choosing the good things to eat. We shared everything so we could try a little bit of everything. Shokudo works in the same concept as Marche but they sell Jap food instead Swiss. The BBQ eel bamboo rice was filling itself but it cost a mere $3.80++. A real steal I must say. The chicken omu rice (tomato rice wrapped in egg) was MmmMm yummy. The Japanese ebi and bacon wasabi pizza was not like your typical italian thick-crusted pizza. Instead, the crust was so thin, it could pass off as paper. But being thin doesn't mean a loss in taste. In fact, I thought this pizza was really flavourful. After that, we took NEOPRINTS. Yea neoprints. Because Shokudo has a neoprint station too! We love nostalgia, don't we? I'll show you guys the pictures once Denise uploads them. ooOOo I can't wait to go back again for the bamboo rice, the matcha and also the tofu cheesecake. Talking about tofu cheesecake, I still think Sun with Moon (at Wheelock) wins hands down with their version. AHHHHH Sun with Moon - the quaint Jap restaurant that's so wonderful even Jap expats go there for their food. I want their MATCHA PARFAIT. I am so high thinking about japanese food, I feel so bad, especially when I remember so many Myanmarese are starving after the cyclone devastation. When I see the picture of the Singapore ambassador in Myanmar presenting aid to the Myanmar military colonel in the newspaper, I can't help but feel worried. We never know how these corrupted officials may actually keep the aid stash for themselves or sell them on the black market, instead of distributing them to the victims. I am afraid. Lord, please let the food, water purifying tablets and first aid reach the people who truly need them immediately, and that these military officials will be merciful towards their fellow Myanmarese. In Jesus' name, Amen. |
