Makan Makan

My best friend of 6 years came to visit last Thursday. Boy oh boy, it was a fun filled 2 days with shopping, endless girly gossips, and best of all FEASTING!

It was fate that brought us together - 10th September 2001 - was the day we sat next to each other on the bus and soon realised we were housemates to be! There was no stopping since :)

We both share a craving for excellent Japanese buffet. One I highly recommend in which its fresh sashimi taste still lingers on my tongue till today, is the Japanese restaurant at Equatorial Hotel Penang or Kuala Lumpur. Ahhhhh...... Then, the weekend buffet lunch cost around RM63++ and dinner RM 88 ++. Pricey but definitely worth it.

Sadly to say in Singapore I have yet to try a Japanese buffet that can match that of Equatorial's. I have in fact settled for the ever cheap 'sushi' buffet at Sakae Sushi.
Very reasonably priced at $16.90++ pp on weekdays from 3 to 6 pm. There is a catch of course ;) The buffet is only limited to coloured plates ie. mainly sushi and inari and all other $1.90 plates. Sashimi is NOT included. Any left overs will be charged. Hence, I have resorted to hiding my extra rice sushi under heaps of endamame shells. hehe....

Ooops. Too much wasabi

The buffet also includes one miniature bowl of udon, 2 mochi ice cream and 2 portions of fruits pp.

I can eat wayyyyy more than that. Try me!

Have I mentioned that Shabna is a really good cook? Well, being the sweetest thing she is, she made me dinner! A fancy one too! Hah!


We had steamed salmon with asparagus, mushrooms and baby potatoes. Ending with a home made Tiramisu, made with extra love and care :)
