Yo! Feel sian now!!! AHHHH.

Went to IKOI JAPANESE RESTAURANT today with my parents! It was mind-blowing can! I wanted to take pictures but the camara click damn loud then I very paiseh. haha.

1st we had salmon sashimi appertizers and that was the most wonderful sashimi I've ever tasted!! Followed my mix sashimi plate (tako, swordfish, tuna, salmon and 2 more which I have forgotten). by now, I was pretty sick of raw fish but it was good!

After that was chawanmushi. It had a very strong eggy taste. The fried tofu was good though. A little spicy but nice. The yakatori was tough and probably one dish I would not recommend, along with the chicken wings. The unagi was good and so was the tempura, particularly the shitake tempura. Then they served miso soup in a small kettle and we had to drink the soup from little tea cups! That was delicious XD. The assortment of grilled fish was alright.

And I finally got to try SOMEN! It arrived cold, with ice cubes and it was heavenly. The chasoba was even better than the one at Kushinbo, with the strong seaweed taste making it very pleasent. We also had this steamed fish head which was good. The meat came off in chunk. Salmon skin maki was one of the highlights of the day. The skin was crispy and flavoursome, while the mayo and roe evened out the tastebuds.

Finally I ate some beef curry. The beef was tough but the curry was fragrant and wonderful. The rice was hard though.

Oh and I met yeu keed on the train!

This was a very foody post!
