This was one of my favourite Japanese restaurant located @ The Central Shopping Mall,
it has beautiful scenery along Clarke Quay and it great to bring friend or family there! 
I use to go frequently to Bugis+ and Marina Square outlet with my friends and now it's relocated
except for The Central outlet, would definately visit again! good enough compared to many :)

Shokudo Japanese Food Bazzar

This was a famous ale-cart like buffet style famous restaurant around year 2006-2008
It feels like Japanese school canteen when I was there with most of my friends at that time! Before it changed and relocated it was formally at Raffles City Mall and HMV orchard, now it has Shrink to (Shokudo Japanese Coffee House)


My very last visit and snapped the drinks display lol!
Famous for Marble Soda (Soft drink) and in-house Matcha.
Actually I required to add redbean from dessert side secretly haha~
definately taste better then very matcha (maacha) alone XD
It was split to 2 stores: 1 for Japanese trend drinks another
can drinks with machine Yuzu and something else.

I lost the photos as it was ages ago lol, Miss Wing & Me would remember
that we were Regulars and always ordered (Omurice with Chicken Chop).
Inside was wrapped with Tomato Rice, with onion and blackpepper corn 
and it really brings out the taste out of it, ever since then I've been cooking 
my own omurice x) *Recommended* #1 if you love Japanese-western style!
Currently the price is $16.80 compared to Bazzar was less then $10,
personally I prefer "Kazokutei" omurice set more :D

#6 (Shokudo Bamboo-steamed Unagi Rice) this is 3rd rank in Minhee's List,
It's a 5/5 Star must order for her, but it was too soft and comes with many bones
not really my style, i only prefer sea unagi with lesser bones.

#7 (Shokudo Ramen Stall) I wonder if anyone remembers this was in most bloggers' review, I've tried it with my friends and it depends on which ramen you ordered, each has different rating. the worst rating was a fail like 2/5 stars, while e other is still acceptable =/

#8 (Shokudo Pizza) We didn't really like it from e Bazzar,
while some bloggers does enjoy it; probably it has improved now
in the new Japan Coffee House.

This review was at Ootoya Suntec City outlet (from Japan Kyoto),
way before I found the other outlet at Orchard Central lately.
It was once of my favourite restaurant with Traditional Japanese food taste!
I lost my photo and found something similar (Tori Salad)
 formally named as (Charcoal Grilled Chicken Salad)
worth a try and it's really tender and delicious! *Recommended*

Here's my friend's Little Ryan, his favourite food all egg-type XD


We had a nice time dining and chatting together ^_^"

I ordered this for first time, hoping it would be similar but it was a lil
over decorated with too much mayonnaise, it become sticky -.-; 
wouldn't say it's good or bad, probably could request "no mayo".
