This sake I chose was pretty low in alcohol content, but the taste and smell of it was very lovely. 

Among all the Thai food at Golden Mile Tower and coaches going to Malaysia, I was really surprised to find this homely Japanese Yakitori place. It is small but can expand at will! The most number of people they managed to fit into the restaurant is 40!

Everyone seems to be ordering the chicken skin, so I did the same, and it was amazingly delicious. I asked how it was made so crispy and yet not a tad bit oily, and the answer was surprising!

"Our chef removes the chicken skin, scrapes off all the fat, then dries it. After it is well dried, it is fried and then the oil is left to dry off on the baking paper." 

Wow. All that to make a dish of chicken skin! You have to take a look at how yummy and crispy it is!

Always eat Sashimi before starting on the Yakitori, so that you are able to appreciate fully the delicate taste of the fresh fish with its wasabi and soy sauce combination.

Before tucking into the yummy chicken skin, my Sashimi came and it was super fresh with good cuts. I loved how thick each slice was, and even though I normally don't like tuna as it is usually overly strong tasting, the tuna that Yorimichi Yakitori serves is especially fresh and mild. Perhaps it was due to the fact that the fishes only arrived in the afternoon that day I was there. Tuna, Maguro is not always available, so do call ahead if you are there for the Tuna!

During my first visit, the pitan tofu looked awful but tasted good. This time round, it looked alot better, probably because they are not as busy on a Monday night. 

En Japanese Dining Bar has really outdone themselves in the Marina Bay outlet, part of Parco Marina Bay's Itadakimasu enclave of Japanese restaurants. Near the toilet on the third floor of Millenia Walk, En Japanese Dining Bar is the only outlet offering a buffet as of now. Dinner is from 6pm -10pm and it is wise to make a reservation. 

I visited the outlet twice, as during my first visit on a Sunday, it was running at full house and the food service was really slow as they only have three staff manning the front. I was however, impressed enough by the food to head back.

Besides the fantastic pork and beef in their Shabu Shabu section, they also have great starters like cold tofu with pi tan and a Caesar salad that is out-of-this -world great. A free flow of Sashimi was the main draw for me, and they have three of my favourite - Salmon, Mekajiki and Hamachi. They were also accommodating enough to serve sashimi style, the items that were supposed to be sushi, like the ika (Squid ) and the tamago (Sweet Egg).

While I tried my best to taste everything on the menu, it was not possible, not even with three people eating. I had lovely mentaiko chicken skewers the last time, so I decided to try the wasabi chicken skewers this time round - also fantastic! The wafu steak is also memorable, with juicy, tender cubes of steak nicely done to medium rare and sprinkled with crisp garlic slices that were nicely grilled. What was badly done this time round was the Kimchi pork, ginger pork and mentaiko spaghetti. These three dishes tasted like the chef was a little too happy in the kitchen, dancing with the salt shaker. For dessert, I had the vanilla, green tea as well as the chocolate ice cream - they were all pre-scooped and refrozen, and the texture was a little rough though the taste remained the same and there were no visible ice crystals. I think this is the best valued Japanese Buffet in town - mostly because of the fabulous, tender meats for the Shabu Shabu and the free flow of my favourite sashimi at $48++ ( Nearly $60 per person after GST and service charge. )
