串焼き天国? / The heaven of Skewered Food?

僕は和食が大好きです。だから、時々行ったことがないレストランを探して、選んで、食事を食べに行きました。だから、今日は。。。
I love to eat Japanese Food. Therefore, from time to time, I will keep a lookout for new Japanese restaurants to try, and once I have the time, I will give some of them a good try. Therefore as for today...

「塩だれキャベツ」
口に投げ入れた後、味はちょっと鹹くて、
くちゃくちゃの生キャベツがいいですね。
'Cabbage with Japanese salt dressing'
The cabbage slices over here are not only salty, they are pretty
crunchy too. Not too bad for a start.

「揚げ大蒜」
一コ一コ、飴みたいな形です。しかし、これは男の味です。
ちょっと苦くて、食べた時、すごくいい匂いが口に爆発します。
'Fried Garlic'
The size of these 'Fried Garlic' reminds me of sweets. And this is
the taste that guys would probably like. It's bitter and as you
started chewing away, there will be a nice fragrance bursting inside
your mouth.

ここのバイキングのメニューに色々な前菜以外、サイドディッシュ
には例えば、唐揚げ、茶碗蒸し、餃子、冷やっこがあります。
そして、ここで一番大人気な料理が。。。
Besides for the appetizers that are listed on their menu, there's also
an interesting list of side dishes too. For example, there's 'Karaage'
(Deep Fried Chicken), 'Chawanmushi', 'Gyoza', 'Hiyayakko'(Cold Tofu),
etc... And the specialities over here are...

「つくね」
つくねじゃなくて。。。
(しかし、丸々一本つくねが美味いです。外層のタレが甘いし、
中身はジューシーだし、噛みごたえのつくねが最高です。)
'Tsukune'
It's not the 'Tsukune' but the...
(However, the rounded-shape 'Tsukune' balls are pretty delicious.
Hidden inside a layer of sweet sauce, are the juicy and chewy meat,
which is worth a big (+).)

「串焼き」です。
ここで、「つくね」以外、様々な串焼きがあります。
野菜の選択があるし、海鮮の選択があるけど、一番多い
選択が野菜と肉のコンビです。その上、太い肉があり、
噛みごたえの串焼きが素晴らしいです。
'Skewered Food'
Besides for the 'Tsukune', they have also listed a big variety of
'Skewered Food'. There's vegetables choices, seafood choices and
most importantly, there's a big selections of 'Skewered Food', which
is made up of meaty and vegetables ingredients. On top of that, the
fatty chunks of chewy meat and pretty good too. :P

「ふわふわ鍋焼きうどん」
確かに、このうどんのふわふわの質感があるけれど、
ボリュームがちょっと多いです。串焼きが好きな人に対して、
この料理を注文しないほうがいいです。
'Fuwa Fuwa Nabeyaki Udon'
The creamy Fluffy texture of the 'Udon' noodles are a (+), but if
you are thinking of eating more 'Skewered Food', I would strongly
encourage you not to order this dish. Especially when the portion
of this dish is slightly a bit too big and filling.

たくさん料理を食べた後、デザートを注文しました。
甘いアイスクリームがいいと思います。
After giving so many dishes a good try, it's time to give the
'Desserts' a good try. And the sweet ice cream would be one of the
best choices listed on their menu.

そのレストランの名前は「やきとり家 すみれ」です。
そこは「Icon Village」というデパートの1階です。
The name of this restaurant would be 'Sumire Yakitori House'.
It's located on level 1 of 'Icon Village'.

営業時間:
  • 所によって、店の営業時間が全然違います。HPに調べてください。
Opening Hours:
  • Due to the location of the restaurant, the opening hours are slightly different. Do visit the Home Page of 'Sumire Yakitori House' for the opening hours of the restaurant.

和風珈琲店の普及化 / Uprising of Japanese Cafe...

十年前に、あの頃は一番人気の喫茶店は「香港風の喫茶店」かもしれません。あの時は、あちこちもご店があり、僕たちは頻々にあそこに料理を食べに行きました。十年前と比較して今は新しいトレンドがあります。
Ten years ago, dining at a 'Hong Kong cafe' is probably one of the trendiest thing to do during that period of time. 'Hong Kong cafe' back then was so so common. There's probably one in every neighborhood. Me and my friends used to hang out there too. :) However, that was a completely different situation as compared to now.

その前に晩御飯を食べていました。
だから、デザートのみご注文しました。
Since I had a heavy dinner earlier, I decided to go for the desserts only.

「ハニートースト抹茶と小倉」
これと「香港風の喫茶店」の厚いトーストの姿が大体同じです。
厚いトーストの上で、白玉とか、抹茶アイスとか、小豆とか、
和風の材料がいっぱいです。この上でハニーを注いでいました。
'Japanese Matcha & Ogura Honey Toast'
This is pretty similar to the thick toast that one can get at a 'Hong
Kong Cafe'. But over here, they have topped it with several types of
Japanese ingredients, etc. 'Shiratama'(Sweet rice flour dumpings),
green tea ice cream, red beans... The finishing touch would be the
portion of 'Honey' that goes on top of everything else.


僕はゆっくりにトーストを九個で分けました。
分けた後、材料が上から徐々に下まで流れました。
食べた時、甘い味以外、いい香りもあります。(・∀・)イイネ!!
トーストはふわふわの内層ときれいな焼き皮のコンビが最高です。
とにかく、トーストと材料のコンビが美味いです。
I started dividing it into 9 pieces. After dividing it into smaller
pieces, the ingredients started flowing down the 'holes' that goes
between the pieces of toast. As I dig into the toast, besides for
the nice and sweet sensation, it also comes with this nice fragrance,
which is a (+). Not only it's fluffy inside, the toast is also
covered in this thin layer of crust. And the chef has come up with a
pretty good dessert, which is a good mix between a Toast and the
Japanese ingredients.

その和風喫茶店の名前は「渡邊珈琲店」です。
そこは「Chinatown Point」というデパートの地下1階です。
The name of this Japanese cafe would be 'Wa Cafe'.
It's located on basement 1 of 'Chinatown Point'.

営業時間:
  • 11:00 - 21:00
Opening Hours:
  • 11:00 - 21:00

足りない。。。 / Not enough...

足りないものは何ですか?それは胃の容量です。実は数ヶ月前に友達と一緒にカラオケに行って、その後食事しに行きました。。。
What is not enough? That would be the size of our stomach. Actually, we had a Karaoke session a few months ago. After that, we decided to settle our dinner at a place nearby...

最後の選択はそちです。
そのバイキングレストランの名前は「Kiseki」です。
店所は「Orchard Central」というデパートの8階です。
We ended up choosing this.
The name of this 'Japanese Buffet Restaurant' would be 'Kiseki'.
It's located on level 8 of 'Orchard Central'.

そこで料理の選択が多いですね。
The wide selection of food over here is worth a very big (+).

たとえば「冷やし海鮮」とか、
For example, there's 'Chilled Seafood',

「揚げ物」とか、
'fried small bites',

「デザート」とか、「果物」とか、選択がいっぱいです。
「豆乳」もありますよ!!!
'Dessert', 'Fruits', etc...
They even have 'Soy Milk' over here too.

「飲み物」さえ
お茶とか、コーヒーとか、ジュースとか、
ソフトドリンクとか、選択が多いですね。
Even the 'beverages' selection over here can be pretty amazing.
There's 'Tea', 'Coffee', 'Juices', 'Soft Drinks', etc...

。。。しかし、机はちょっと小さいですね。
四人に対して、机の面積が全然足りないです。
でもね、おでんとか、餃子とか、鍋とか、様々な料理がありますよ。
とにかく、料理の味があまり素晴らしくないけど、種類が多いし、
大満足です。不足の点は僕たちの胃の容量です。
もし人類は二つの胃があったら、自由に換えられて、
それは良いと思います。
...However, the tables here are slightly a bit too small for the
4 of us. But 1 thing that I would like to compliment would be the
choices over here. There's 'Oden'(Boiled ingredients served in a
broth), 'Gyoza'(Dumplings), 'Hot Pot', etc... In other words,
though the food over here isn't super fantastic, but there's lots
of choices for you to choose, which is pretty satisfying. The
biggest weakness would be the size of our stomach isn't big enough
to outbeat all the different choices. Isn't it great if a human
being can have 2 interchangeable stomachs, then you would have
more than enough space to give all the different interesting food
options out there a good try?

注:そのレストランのサービスが良いと思います。
僕たちは十時ほど水を注文して、ウエーターさんが近くのコンビに
へ行って、水を買いました。それはほんまにいいサービスですね。
Note: I personally find the service of this restaurant to be pretty
good. When we were placing an order for a glasses of water after
10pm, the waiter actually went down and bought us bottles of water
for free, which is a pretty rare sight nowadays.

    夜:18:00 - 22:30(ラストオーダー:21:30)

カムイン北海道/Come In to Hokkaidō?

数週間前に、僕と友達は'Clarke Quay'に合う前に、暑いので、アイスクリームを食べたいです。だから、'Liang Court'へアイスクリームを食べに行きました。そこで。。。
Few weeks ago, I'm suppose to meet my friends at 'Clarke Quay', but due to the hot weather, I decided to grab some ice cream before I meet them. Therefore, I decided to pay a visit to 'Liang Court'...


「メロンとバニラのアイスクリーム」です。
そのメロンの部分は、味が重いし、質とかき氷が大体同じです。(≧∇≦)b です。
(附:日本のメロンの価格はS$50ほどです。高いですね~~~Σ(゚Д゚ υ) です)
'Melon and Vanilla Ice Cream'
The taste for the vanilla ice cream is pretty much the same
else where, but the taste for the Melon ice cream is pretty strong.
On top of that, the texture of the ice cream is pretty much
similar to the Japanese style 'shaved ice'. (≧∇≦)b
(Note: Speaking of Melon, do you know that a Melon in Japan
or from Japan can cost as much as S$50?)


店の名前は「カムイン北海道」です。そこで、様々な北海道のお菓子が探せますよ。
「Liang Court」の「明治屋」の店舗内、「カムイン北海道」という店がありますよ。
The name of the shop will be 'Come In Hokkaidō'. You can find
all sorts of infamous sweets and biscuits from Hokkaidō over there.
By the way, this shop is located inside the compound of 'Meidiya'
Singapore, which is located in 'Liang Court'.

シンガポール唯一のかき氷レストラン? / The only restaurant in Singapore that serves 'Kakigori'

「かき氷」は日本で夏季に人気な和風のデザートです。「かき氷」の形とシンガポールの「アイス カチャン」の形は大体同じです。しかし、材料と作り方は全然違います。普通の「かき氷」の材料は氷とシロップだけです。しかし、シンガポールの「アイス カチャン」は様々な材料もあります。小豆とか、いろいろなゼリーとか、様々な材料も見たことがあります。じゃ、次は食べ物の写真です。

'Kakigori' would be a famous Japanese dessert that the Japanese have been eating during Summer. The shape of the 'Kakigori' was pretty similar to the shape of the 'Ice Kacang' that we can easily find in Singapore. However, the ingredients used in both desserts were completely different. A normal 'Kakigori' only contains shaved ice and syrup only. As for a &aposIce Kacang', ingredients like red beans, jelly, etc were included in a normal bowl of 'Ice Kacang'. Well Let us look at some images of food.

シンガポールの天気はいつも暑いので、
僕は一週間二回以上、涼しいデザートを超食べたいです。

Due to the hot weather that I have been experiencing in Singapore,
probably more than twice a week, I would have the urge to eat some
cold desserts in order to make me happy. :)

そのレストランで他の和風料理もありますよ。
Besides for 'Kakigori', the restaurant also offers a spread of Japanese delicacies like
大根とか、

White Radish,
餃子とか、

Pan fried dumplings,
唐揚げとか、

Deep Fried Chicken,
冷やし面とか、

Japanese cold noodles,
様々な和風料理もありますよ。
(しかし、僕は一番美味い食べ物は「カキ氷」です。)

Basically, you can find all sorts of Japanese delicacies at this restaurant.
(However, I think that among all the food that they are offering, 'Kakigori'
tastes the best.)

そのレストランの名前は「Tamaya Dining」です。
As for the name of the restaurant, it will be 'Tamaya Dining'.

注意(以下はあのレストランのルールです):
  • もしそのレストランで「かき氷」を食べたかったら、お酒や食事食べなければなりません。このルールはちょっと酷いです。しかし、美味い「かき氷」のために、頑張ってください。

Note(The following was a rule of the restaurant):
  • If you would want to try the 'Kakigori' of the restaurant, you will at least need to place an order for Sake or food. Although the rule was a bit disturbing, but for the sake of the 'Kakigori', I think that it was pretty worth it.
