wanted to go eat dindin at Vivo, then buy my faithful kiehl's facial cleanser & toner... but upon reaching the car-park ENTRANCE, we were turned away by the security guard cause there's no more parking lots at 7pm! sigh.. wonder why all singaporeans going to the same plc as we are,,,
Decided to go to boat quay to eat korean food.. upon approaching the korean restaurant, it has been replaced by a american steakhouse! Arggh!! by this time bear was getting grouchy & scaring kitty le.. haa..
wandered to Central mall, saw this cute lil place that advertises itself as a "Japanese-styled Western Food" restaurant, so we went to give it a shot despite having to wait 10mins for a table.
The atmosphere was impressing and more so the staff (we're suckers for "nationality-related-staff". This restaurant has japanese waitresses and we think its cool; just as french restaurants should have frenchies and italian employing italianos), order their specialty, some "miso-based japanese sauce brewed over 28days(!) and poured over a hamburger patty.." & it really taste as good as it reads! Sauce was a nice blend of saltiness and sweetness and the patty was cooked to a nice softness topped with an pan-fried egg..
shared a Gratin w/prawns & scallop with Kitty and it was delicious too, but kitty wished it was more burned so that the cheese will be the crusty kind.. haa..
The uniqueness about this japanese chain showed when the waiter gave me a huge bronze key with tag with our table no. engraved on it shortly aft our dishes was served and informed us to "check-out" aft we finish our meal, so me and kitty thought it was a nice gimmick. But was kinda dissapointed when we "check-out" at the cashier only to realise it was merely handing over the keys and everything is as per other normal restaurants..

But the cashier said "Arigat0o-Gozaimashita" (in real Jap tone) to us when we left so we still lap it up like two idiots hopelessly in-love with anything japanese la.. keke
P.S: we then tried this desert at the Azabu Sabo call "HOT-BALLS"... it is reeaallly good....

hey, this restaurant is pretty decent. went there once, it's at a corner one right? the last time i went, had the window seats and was facing the river, really nice. yeah, when we first had the key, thought it was something arty farty but was a little disappointed in the end, oh well. i thought it was more of a french/jap modern cuisine but doesn't matter as long as our tastebuds are satisfied. ;)
