Hello everyone!
Decided to "colour" my dormant blog today, hence the pictures. :)
If you've not been to Garden's newly-opened Hokkaido Ichiba, you should give it a try.
Brought to you by the same folks who brought you the likes of Sushi Zanmai, Pasta Zanmai & Shojikiya, Hokkaido Ichiba is catered to the slightly more premium market.
(Which means food could be a little more pricier comparative to the former two).
But there's always a positive side to that - they serve really fresh sashimis & they have additional items sold like sea urchin sashimis! :D
Was there on the first night of its opening and here are some pictures to go :
They have an ice cream corner right beside the main restaurant where they serve a selection of hokkaido ice creams! Didn't get to try this then, but will certainly do soon!
We weren't really big eaters so we had minimum orders that night. Pictures here :
Where it's located :
Hokkaido Ichiba,
T-210, 3rd Floor,
The Gardens, Mid Valley City.
If you know where Sushi Zanmai is on the 3rd floor of Gardens, just walk towards the middle court on the same floor, you'll see Hokkaido Ichiba right at the escalater's end. :)

Q2 Briefly Swaying By...
This year has been the best travelendar (travel + calendar, LOL) I have by far.
There's been a lot of travelling of late.
To UK in June (which I've not blogged about, yet. -_- )
To Singapore in August (Okay, I know, this one doesn't count.. business related. But I met the nicest people there whom I've been working with, known their names all along, but couldn't put faces to their email Ids, talked non business, and made new friends! Finally eh... not too bad at all).
To China in September. I'm leaving in 2 days. :D
I wish there's more to come to keep the hype going! So energetic and excited to think about.
But darn I wish our currencies are as strong as Sterling Pounds or something.
Bank account is bleeding max. Sigh.
So there's that - quarter 2 swaying by at lightning's speed.
Obviously I haven't been updating much.
Just in case you're wondering, I'm not acting busy. I AM busy! :D

Uni Uni Uni
Guess what I discovered on the day of my birthday?
I discovered I'm a year older, and many more older years to come. And that I'm only in my 20s, but it feels as if I'm already in my 30s. All the ladies stuff. Duhh.
Ok. No la... I actually discovered that sea urchin sashimis are quite tasty!
Yes! I tried!
But no... no photos to show you.
So I have to steal a picture I googled randomly to show you how it looks like.
Ta-da! We call them 'Uni'.
Yeap, it looks like that - like tao fu pok cut into slices. Haha.
"Eeeyerrrrrrrr"
Yea, that was my response. That is... until I nom-ed them. Haha.
So there, another milestone in my Jap gastronomical journey.
Next in my must-try-before-I-die Jap delight - Fugu sashimi!
You don't get pufferfish sashimi here, because it's almost lethal if it's not prepared properly, so chefs are licensed to be able to prepare fugu sashimis.
Apparently if a human consumes poison from the deadly pufferfish, he can practically die in 10mins.
-_-
So there, my next wishlist. Haha.
