Major Event for 2011 - OSIM Triathlon 2011!

One of the most expensive event in Singapore (most expensive should be Ironman 70.3)...

I guess building up towards sundown marathon will be a good timing to train my running and i'll focus more on swim/bike during June/July period for marathon recovery.

Sounds like a good plan eh?

328 Katong Laksa

Well I love laksa. I treat Penang Laksa and Noyna Laksa as different dish. However i do love both types of laksa.

Flavorful with depth, little spicy kick and satisfying comfort to the soul. This is what noyna laksa is all about. Off all noyna laksa, i think Katong Style of laska is the best way to enjoy laksa.

Rich coconut and robust gravy with fresh prawns and cockles, short strain of thick rice noodles with some fish cake, a sprinkle of minced laksa leave all on one spoon. This spoon into the mouth will bring you to a place call heaven.

Chilli Sauce is optional but i love to add some to bring up the kick!

I will never stop loving this dish!
The Large bowl ($5.50) will satisfy big eater like me.

Yushen @ Fukuichi Japanese Dining

I wanted to try out something different from the usual Yusheng we normally had in chinese restaurant. Browsed the web a little and found this place.

Salmon for Yusheng. Superb Plating, looks very elegant...

Well, the difference between the japanese yusheng and chinese yusheng is probably the type of condiments available. However the condiments differs from restaurant to restaurant so this might be the most unique one i come across.

Other then the regular carrot, radish, pok cui and some pickles, you will find nuts, shiitake mushroom, lettuce and japanese pickles. As for the sauce, the seasoning is pretty heavy. Quite sweet and pretty distinct on the salt or shoyu.

The only dish worth mention was the unagi from my bento set. Apparently it was grilled with some bambo leaves that gives it a unique aroma and slightly pleasant bambo smokey taste. Unexpectedly, I love it!

We also shared a spider maki which is pretty good in taste and they are generous with ebiko. However the sushi chef lack skill to make it firm. The maki was very loosely made and challenging it eat.

Overall the food in the restaurant is just above average. Slightly pricy, not worth the frequent visit. However the presentation of the food is superb and food photographers will love this place so much.

Mixed Feeling...
