I've fallen in love with their buns when I was in Singapore. But now it's here in Jakarta and i got to eat those heavenly buns again!!! so much <3 p="">

(yeah couldn't careless about the rest of the menu, but the poached veggies is awesome XD)

Give it 6 months if you want to avoid the long queues XD

Nasi Goreng Hitam

Long John with beef paste, beef kebab, Cheese and Egg.

Ice Durian Ovomaltine

I finally sat down and eat in OTW food street. The recent hip place in Kelapa Gading. Always crowded with people and only open in the evening.

I came with a group of friends who's as curious as I was. So we queued and surprisingly we wait for a while and then we're called to our table. Quite fast actually, i didn't expect that. OTW street food is actually somekind of food court concept. It consist of 4 different food joint - martabak, drinks, dessert (cendol and durian and Kue Cubit) and the main course (noodles, rice and burgers). You order them on the respective seller, pay them first and the food will be delivered to your table.

Getting a table was fast but a different story in queuing to order and food delivery. They really did take quite sometime. The queue for ordering in the main course section was.. not really long, but each customer took sometime to order. Basically because they didn't put a big menu where everyone can see and choose while they wait and not enough menu books. And the cashier was not being helpful, i mean she could really hasten the ordering proses but i find her somewhat slow in responding when i ordered. And the food getting out from their kitchen is really sloooowwww, i didn't count but i'm guessing we're waiting around 30 minutes until we can get our Long John. The rice meal was quicker to be delivered. Kinda weird, because i'd assumed that rice meal needs time to prepare while burger and sandwich is basically half prepared already. But that's what happen. *shrugs*

The black squid fried rice (Nasi goreng hitam) taste quite good in my opinion. This is my first time eating squid ink fried rice. So i can't compare to any other, but i found it taste ok. Different from usual fried rice and to compare them i think i prefer the usual one, but this one quite appetising XD While the long john taste like.. I almost can't taste any beef, only bread and tomato sauce and mayonnaise. Though they did grilled the bun so it's a bit crunchy on the inside but nothing special. Beef patty should be a better choice but they haven't sell the Long John with beef patty yet. And another let down is they don't have french fries!!!! I love to have the burgers with french fries.

The Durian ovomaltine though... YUMMY!!!! i really love it!!!! Shaved ice, durian juice, grass jelly, chocolate ice cream and then poured with a squirt of ovomatine. Apart from the grass jelly, i thought it's pretty good combination. I didn't expect chocolate going well with durian but it does. The only thing annoying is the grass jelly, because i don't think it fits together. And it's quite expensive, durian ovomaltine 30k but still i would go and buy it again XD The service is fast too, either ordering and delivering is fast. so I'm really satisfied.

On the place, I think it's just so so, half of the place is outdoor. But I think it's better to sit outside since the indoor was quite hot, albeit all the air conditioner was on full blast. The place was packed, the seat is small so not so comfy to sit on for a long time. The pricing is affordable, main course ranging from 20-40k, Long John 45-55k, drinks 5-40k, desserts 15-30k. I didn't check the martabak one so i can't say for sure.

All in all, i really love the durian. I'll go back just for that XD

Opening: 4 - 10 pm.

For couple of days we've been using this place for our ads shooting projects. So naturally when i was surrounded by cake, it was my natural instinct to go and want to eat them XD especially the chocolate one XD

So at the end of the shoots, i finally lost to temptation and just order what i had wanted for days. The chocolate oreo tart (47.5k). It was what i have expected, chocolate. Though it looks so small, I actually can't finish it. I was surprised that it was so dense with dark chocolate, chocolate ganache, chocolate sponge complete with the tart crust at the bottom. I was hoping for it to be more moist than it was and as usual i'm not a fan of tart crust. It was not DA BOMB but it was enough to satisfy my cravings XD

Hmmm the other fruit tart looks extremely tempting XD

Intention: watch SuperShow 6 - Super Junior with budget 800k... Yeah that budget a little to low for SuJu. XD

So ended up in Ikea to look for book shelf, ended up eating way too much for my own good. And I still ate ice cream on top of that xD

Actually i was craving for their meatball but i was warn that Indonesian Ikea's meatball is not as tasty as their abroad franchise (I think it must be because they missing the cranberry sauce) so yeah i opted for other.
Their mushroom soup (15k) is delish just too bad they don't add mushroom chunks, that would be nicer.
And also i like their chocolate tart! For 20k that's quite a deal!
Other than that, the main dish (Chicken leg) is so-so, nothing special.

I must say their pricing is not so expensive. They ranging from 15-75k but the expensive ones portion is bigger than the others so it's still pretty good deal. Plus the all you can drink for 7k that's also cool. And the ice cream for 4k... I think there's tiny space in my stomach for that one XD

A Thailand bbq-hotpot tent restaurant just sprung up in Wisma Gading Permai! When we went there and saw it, we just knew we had to go there. Especially they're having soft opening promo. Meat buy one get one free!!!!

So we ordered 3 type of beef; original, sweet and black pepper. Along with 2 veggies and instant noodle.

The way to eat this is that the pour the soup around the bbq top ( please refer to the pics because i'm sure i can't explain it that well xD) and the juices of the meat will flow down into the soup making it taste much more delish. They also use charcoal instead of usual burner. I'm not sure it's because of this or the bbq plate but the meat won't get burn, so you can enjoy them slowly ;)

The soup itself already have it's own flavor, it's no regular chicken stock soup but it's yellowish color and it taste sweet. So my brother who only drink sweet stuff but didn't like sweet meal with his rice said that it was to sweet for him. But for me since i'm the complete opposite of him, love it. And i also enjoyed eating the soup with noodles too. I think it's a great combination xD they also have special chilly sauce to eat the meat with. One is sweet red chilly sauce and the other one is spicy green chilly sauce. I can't really eat spicy food though i live chilly, but i gobbled them all like it was nothing so yeah they aren't spicy at all.

The pricing is quite affordable, a serving of meat for 18k though the serving size is not big but pretty decent for the price. And since it's promo, we got 6 serving of meat!!

They are brand new (and i think it was their first day when we ate there) so they are pretty shaky with the service but overall i'm satisfied with what we got. And of course bbqing outside in a tent on hot day can really drench you with sweat. But i guess that's part of the enjoyment XD
I think we will be back again!

Desserts menu

Hot pure chocolate

Banana Tartin

Plants

Pralines collection

I've found this place by accident, when i was browsing for other chocolate desserts place. But since this one have an open kitchen and built from scratch chocolate, it's intrigue me and i just had to drag Q-tan to this place.

This ended up as the 2nd place we visited after the 1/15 cafe. When we met we spent a really long time sitting in one place, it even feel awkward to order anything after 3 hours lunch would it? XD We found out that this place is close to the cafe so after our initial search and getting lost, we found it. The first floor is the open kitchen and the 2nd floor is the dining place.

Unluckily when we arrived, they didn't have free table for us, since half of the place was closed due to an event. And sadly they didn't have any waiting area, so we awkwardly standing there, waiting. They really should have waiting area, seriously. After a while we thought we should just do a take away and try the drink first, and came back next time if we thought it taste decent. After we ordered the drink and paid, we saw some people just went up and paid, so we got ourself a table... At this point of time i feel that, compared to just wait and being served, i think it's better to be proactive in here, because it seems the staff was pretty clueless as much as we were.

Looking at the menu, they really got a lot of creative things going on and all looks so interesting. We have ordered Hot pure choco, which is melted dark chocolate mixed with milk or basically hot dark chocolate for me and Ice Choco Salt Caramel for Q-tan. I got to say i'm impressed with the chocolate drinks they serve here. Mostly in other chocolate parlor, when they say dark chocolate, you will got little bit bitter version of milk chocolate, I would say it's like 30% dark chocolate bar. While in Pipiltin cocoa, you really got your dark chocolate, it;s bitter yet still sweet, my hot pure chocolate taste like around 50-60% dark chocolate bar. It's really a hot chocolate made for adult. It's rich, bitter-sweet, and thick but still easily drink down on your throat. They didn't made fun of dark chocolate and i love them for it. While the Ice choco salt caramel, really does taste like it should, it's salty and caramel sweet with strong taste of bitter chocolate. it really is a very interesting combination. Taste damn good.

Then we've decided to settle ourself with Plants (cookie crumbs cake with honeycomb covered in dark chocolate) along with Deconstructed Banana Tartin.

When it first came into our table, I was simply blown away with the creativity. The first to arrive is the Plants. It looks like a bonsai on top of a big rock with 2 honeycomb 'rock' on the side. The small bonsai tree was really potted in a real plants pot. Really if i'm not in this store and you gave me this, i would assume its actually people trying to play with dirt, because the cookie crumbs does look like a real dirt. The 'bush' is made of cotton candy, a very sticky one, but taste good. A chocolate 'trunk' and the 'dirt' made of layered chocolate sponge and lemon cream (something like chocolate tiramisu just minus the coffee) covered in cookies crumbs. The actual cake actually taste decent, lemony, sweet, a bit chocolaty taste and a surprise of a whole berry fruits inside, but the cookie crumbs taste like mothballs (it's not like i have ever eat mothball but yeah i figure if i do eat them it will taste like this) so when you eat them altogether it give this horrible aftertaste in your mouth. So we try to get rid of the cookies crumb when we ate the 'Plants'. Luckily the honeycomb taste absolutely delightful. Overly sweet covered with bitter dark chocolate, so it's balance well in your mouth. and of course the chocolate itself that they use for the 'trunks' was exquisite. If it's not for that i might trash this desserts quite badly.

Then came the Banana Tartin. As always the presentation itself blew us away. it has two injection tubes, one caramel, one chocolate cream, salt caramel tuiles, banana cream and banana cake. Really looks like food playground, and the way to eat it is start from the tuile and go the left side putting the sauce, dip on the cream before you much them. I never had such fun playing and eating with a desserts XD when i eat them altogether (without including the cake) it taste like banana ledre (a traditional indonesian snack) the banana cream taste so banana, almost feel like you eating banana milk puree.. if that's making sense XD the tuile was soft crunchy, could be more awesome if it was crunchier. Too bad the cake was hard and doesn't taste appetising and fun like the rest of the plate. But still it was fun!

The place is pretty comfy, a little bit too rustique for me and the decor is really raw, and the lighting is pretty minimum (hence the hard time for me to take a picture since it's already dark outside when we finally get a table - should have brought camera) but hey you came here to play with your food XD

Pricing is upscale, our drink is around 44-47k each, their specialty drink varies around 30-50k while the dessert varies around 50-70k. They also have savoury food, which varies around 40-90k. They also sell ordinary slice cake and pralines. They got this promo, tweet pipiltin cocoa picture while tagging their username and show them to the staff and you get yourself a free praline/macarons, which of course i took advantage of, i could say their pralines is pretty good. Basically their chocolate quality is great so it's no wonder at least they can make a decent pralines.

All in all i would really love to come back to just saw the creativity. Taste was a bit arguable, since none of the desserts really blew me away. But if you're looking to have a grown up hot chocolate while keeping check with your childish side, i think this place is a good place to visit XD

Mocha

Ice Cappucinno

French Toast

Big Breakfast

Q-tan is a coffee drinker and she found this cafe since she went past it a few times. She told me she has interest to visit it and try their coffee (she is a legitimate coffee lover unlike me XD) And of course if it's a cafe i would like to check on it XD

So last saturday we went and visit it. I must say, it did look interesting from the front. There's parking space but parking in south area is always tricky as usual. But we didi get a parking space fine and we went in.

The place is simplistic, in natural tone and very welcoming. This would be the perfect cafe for working. I spot a few cushion seat but most of the seat is wooden seat some with back support, some only stools. They use a very large glass windows so a large amount of natural light, since i was visiting during daytime. The lighting on the store itself is pretty subdued, soft evening light kinda feeling.

Came in the store and went straight to ordered on the ordering desk. The ordering is pretty challenging on it's own. They only provide, menus on the ordering desk, we pretty much spent quite a while in front of the cashier because of that. (I'm choosy XD) Which make me feel rushed since there are other customer queuing behind us. And after you pay they give us number and then you can choose where to seat, wherever you want to XD.

I ordered Mocha and French toast while Q-tan have Big breakfast and Iced Cappuccino (they have all day breakfast here, which is always get a high point from me XD) Usually i'm staying away from coffee on weekend, unless i really have to drink them. But since we were visiting a place that are well known for their coffee, I thought i should have made an exception.

My mocha was exquisite, creamy, not overly sweet, balance between chocolate, milk and coffee. The coffee itself is not strong, I felt fine drinking it without adding anything or making me nauseous afterwards. Q-tan also said that the coffee was good (that's a certified comment there XD) My french toast was fluffy and soft and lovely, would be perfect if they gave us more maple syrup because i'm such a sweet tooth but it's great. While Q-tan's big breakfast have quite a flaw in my opinion. the corn fritter taste a bit bland, great salsa sauce on top though but the fritter itself is bland and the texture feels like i was eating corn shell. They also overcooked the poached eggs, so there's no melting yellow goodness, which is disappointing. but the sausage taste heavenly, greatly seasoned. Overall was ok but surely it could be better.

Pricing is pretty upscale. Drinks varies between 25-40 (I didn't manage to really learn the menu, i knew they also sell non-coffee drinks but i didn't properly see the drink menu so yeah i could be wrong) Breakfast varies around 50-90k, they also sell desserts and pastries. I spent around 102k for my french toast and mocha, while Q-tan spent around 110k.

The place was pretty crowded when we were there, most of them doing works and meeting to discuss things. No wonder really, the ambience really do support you to do your works XD I'm pretty hooks with this place and would be great place for me to do my works. Too bad it's so far away. at least i will try to come back for the desserts next time XD

Enjoying me time, it's been a while.

Went to LOVE (Lotte Avenue) and having dinner at Blooming Mari, korean fussion food, accompanies with manga and my phone XD

I ordered cheese toppoki with 'four seasons' drink (guava, pinapple and 2 other fruits that i can't remember with grenadine syrup) The drink is lovely, though the i don't really like guava but it's pretty refreshing to drink that especially when you are eating spicy stuff XD not too sweet and mixture of refreshing fruits juice. I quite like it. Cost: 35k

Cheese toppoki was sooo cheesy XD a big dollop of mozarella cheese on top of korean toppoki, spicy really. The portion is big but it is expensive, 80k for a big plate. Well korean food is always expensive. It taste like it original toppoki sweet and spicy. A little bit challenging to eat the cheese but it's all fun XD I came pretty hungry and i thought it taste great until in the middle of enjoying them i feel really hard to continue eating. Having the cheese in it help big time to fight that sweetness of it.

They come with a little complimentary radish pickle with kimchi... In a tiny sauce cup which i found hilarious (too small!!!)

It's a ok experience, not something memorable. I saw the rest of the menu, i didn't really find anything that grabs my interest so i'm not sure about a 2nd visit but when i'm craving for toppoki maybe i will. But i will drag someone with me for sure!

The food hunter is on the road!!!

So our venue today is GI since Gi has a lot of new restaurant opening there. (well actually I want to try the Coco Curry, since they were my fav curry restaurant in Japan and Beijing XD but since Mimitsu isn't that fond of curry rice, so we opted for something else)

Our pick for today was Jill on Marketbar.

The place wan't that cosy, i hated low table with chair higher than the table. They got normal dining table though but i did opted for the sofa, which really unsuitable for dining. Good for lounging but not dining. My bad choice.

We ordered Fried dory with Jill's homemade sauce with mash potato and Vietnamese baguette with potato wedges. Despite good services (the waitress did a good job in timely service, polite, fun, and overall helpful), i found the taste of the food wasn't really up for our palette.

They got "Belly filler" on the menu that made us were expecting for something in moderately big size. And it did surprised us when it turn out smaller than our expectation. It ain't big, though enough for one person. But i won't say belly filler, because certainly it's not that fulfilling. But to be fair, at that point we were very hungry. One thing that i also found weird is that on the menu they wrote that Dorry fish with Jill's homemade sauce is great to be eaten with briani rice. But briani rice aren't included in the side dish choices for the fish. The reason is because the briani rice is in different price range from other side dish but when you saw them on the menu, they are all 15k. You still can order the briani rice separately though, which is what we did.

The deep fried dory with Jills homemade sauce which was actually mango salad with sweet chilly sauce dressing and mash potato was a ok. I quite like them. The fish, albeit they should make it much more crispier than that, with the mango salad and sweet chilly sauce dressing was quite delectable. The mash potato has a hint of sour taste, which for me as a fan of sour taste food, that is a good surprise for me. It was perfectly seasoned as well.

On the other hand the Vietnamese baguette was a wreck, it was nothing like Vietnamese roll. The bread is pretty good for me, but Mimitsu said it was hard for her to chew but that to be expected from a baguette i say XD But the combination of the sauce that they spread on the bread, with the pickle and beef was somewhat weird. It's salty-sourish in unpleasant kinda way. I'd prefer to eat the bread only without anything in it. It was disappointing.

The briani rice is pretty ok. I have never eat briani rice before, so I can't say if the taste was spot on or not, but it taste like nasi uduk but just more flavourful and has stronger taste.

For the drink we has peppermint mocha latte and ice passion fruit tea. The peppermint mocha latte taste similar to s*bucks one but just with stronger coffee (which explain my alertness at this time --> weak coffee drinker XD). Since that was my fav coffee, I'm pretty much enjoy them. The Ice passion fruit tea has a dollop of passion fruit in it and it did taste very fruity, but that's all nothing out of ordinary with that one.

The pricing start from 30k-150k. The drink start from 15k and they do serve alcoholic drinks. For that taste and that amount of food, i think it was overly expensive. I'd rather eat at other restaurant for that pricing and have something fulfilling to the belly. Also when you pay, please do asked if they had promotion. I was happy i asked because it turn out they giving out discount for the G Card holder (Grand Indonesia member card) ;)

I won't say it's sunny side up for everything else though.
This was actually my 2nd visit to this particular restaurant.

I am a big fan of breakfast food so when i saw this restaurant open in the mall in my neighbourhood, i was happy with the thought that i could eat more variance of all day breakfast. But when i try them on the first time they actually left my mediocre impression. But Pisuko was pretty impressed by them. So when she asked me to have lunch here, i thought maybe i should give them a 2nd chance.

Turn out not so sunny at all. We ordered the omelette breakfast and mushroom soup for share because we want to taste the water first before we ordered more. (Well actually because Pisuko want to avoid unnecessary cholesterol XD)

The order came pretty soon and we were having trouble with some dirty cutleries. Really restaurant need more attention to the cleanliness of their cutleries. Really such a turn off when you found something stuck on what supposed to be clean spoon. Then when we dig in, we found out that the taste was pretty weird. They didn't really turn out like it was before. No cheese on the tomato, the omelette was dry with the weird taste mushroom (i'm pretty sure it's canned mushroom but blah) the cheese inside wasn't melted which kinda confuse me because the egg was cooked thoroughly but the cheese was intact ... *shrugs* the ham and sausages was dry. The mushroom soup was salty but i can tolerate that, so that was our saviour. It was a plate of food that need more inspiration! Overly dry-looking and unappetizing! Pisuko complain about the food alot! But anyway we got a cup of ice cream for mentioning them at twitter. XD Needless to say we ordered nothing more and save our stomach for something else.

And that lunch was the cheapest lunch on our food hunt session, so we took a picture of the bill to commemorate them XD

Got a meeting for the church's good friday theatrical.

So Chom chom it is.

Though i only ordered chilli cheese fries with honey lemon tea. The taste is so so. Nothing special worth mentioning. Not great but not bad. I want a bit of meat on my fries though which nonexistent. Also my honey lemon taste a lil bit weird. Granted i was expecting something like HongKong honey lemon. It's nothing like that though.

The price is expensive in my opinion, fries for 28k with the drink for 18k and the portion is ain't that big either. They package them all like the way they did in fast food joint. I thought that pretty cute, love the design for the cup.

The place is comfy though! They got a nice leather sofa seat, that doesn't look like it's nice to sit on but it's actually pretty comfy. I think it's suitable for sleeping XD also extra point is they have free wify and it's pretty fast!!!

Though i must say their services is a little bit sucks. When i want to order i have to call them couple of times. Cooking time took a lot longer that i thought it would. But not so bad that i hate the place. It's ok.

Might come again for the wify!! XD and also they open until 2 am.

Bought vouchers for special package to dine here, despite the long way from home, i must say it does not disappoint XD

P-chan told me about it and we decided to buy the voucher and give them a try. And we bought 2 packages xD so after the bra competition in PP, we went straight to this place.

They had quite a large selection from the menu. Not only western but also asian. We strictly order western type though but stay away from all the pork since Mimitsu was with us XD. For starters we choose Bacon enoki kushiyaki and escargots au beurre maitre de hotel ( they got a very long and difficult name D:) they taste absolutely delicious. Make me craving for more at first the enoki appearance turn me off since it doesn't look all that bbq but when i ate it, it made me dance xD perfectly balance cooked with a lot of juice. The escargot had a mash potato bit under the bread and i thought the mash was a bit bland, but the escargot is thoroughly seasoned well to eat on top of the bread.

Our main, 2 burger, panko fish mousse burger and cheese lover burger, fillet mignon and tuscan lemon chicken. First the burger, i totally love the brioche bun that they used. Taste firm and springy, not soft like most burger bun. But the patty for the cheeseburger was somehow taste a little bit funny. I can't exactly pinpoint it but it's just taste funny. I think they should grilled it a bit longer. They were juicy but way to juicy in my opinion and didn't have the grilled taste that i was hoping to get. While the fish was crunchy, that's the plus point. Also the chop their own french fries, i love that. The tuscan lemon chicken taste great though it didn't come as sour for me, though a very well seasoned grilled chicken that i enjoy eating XD.Fillet mignon was a let down for us. It remind me of 'gepuk' instead of a steak. Small meat in top of mash potatoes accompanies with sweet sour sauce that i didn't think went well with the steak. The meat was tough though we asked for medium well, it was medium rare.

The mocktails though were awesome. I think that what you should get from a pub XD. We got mint mojito and if i'm not mistaken sweet sunset., melon (honeydew) tea. Mint mojito is ginger ale with a hint of mint, right combination. While sweet sunset was so sour that all i can remember right now it's lemony XD but it did perk yourself up and with that amount of creamy food you ate, this was the right drink. I never drink melon tea before and for the first timer it taste pretty weird XD but a good weird i quite like it (it looks like a beer XD)

Pricing is in the medium high, starters around 45-85k, mains from 65k-150k drink starts 20k up. Place is small but awesome decor, sad because it's a pub so i don't think they have non-smoking area (or at least they didn't offer it for us) service is fast, helpful and friendly.

Overall i love the time i had there, the starters was great but then the main remind us of a well... Bar standard food. At least a high bar standard food xD still a little bit too expensive for that standard. But aince i got voucher price i have no complain for that... It's a different matter if i have to pay the full price XD Pretty awesome place, will likely to return because i'm curious about their desserts.

Pisuke called me put for dinner meeting XD

So i asked her to meet me in Kenji sushi fusion restaurant. It's been around for quite a while but i haven't got to try them out. So we went and try.

When we entered the restaurant and the cute plate greet me from the start, i was about to squeal XD for those who knew me will understand why. I'm a sucker for cute plate and cutlery and all that jazz XD so when i saw they used all cute, different plate on each table i just got hype up to eat XD

Fancy restaurant, funky decor and all unique detail touch. Me so likey, but unfortunately it does not follow with other aspect. We decided to order 4 sushi. Most of their pricing for the fusion sushi range around 20-100k depends on what they have on the roll. They use fancy ingredients such as lobster, variety sashimi, caviar, etc they mix it all together. They got two different menu. One on their fancy menu book are the creative fusion roll which consist of those fancy ingredients, range around 40-100k they got full (8 pcs) or half (4pcs). They also got economic roll menu (which they didn't gave us until a while later. I think they forgot about those) the price range for these economic roll is around 20-50k which have the 'basic' ingredients without fancy creative add up.

Our 4 sushi that we bought is 3 creative and 1 economic. And none of them satisfied me. I can barely remember what i ate right now. I know we ordered one with mango (manbo mango) i think it was one that was put on the long with round separation plate (Did i describe that right? ), stacey roll (crunchy spicy salmon with avocado) and mystique ( i only remember they got tortilla on those) and one tamago kyuri mentai, which i forgot to take pic of. I can barely recall anything. I only remember that the mango, since it was drizzled with a bit of mango juice, it taste sweet. A little bit salt on rice for the tamago mentai, crunchy tortila among rice and a hint of salmon with mayo.

And since i thought we already there i should try their desserts. They only got 2 desserts, tempura ice cream and matcha pannacotta. Now desserts is something i can remember well. Theirs version of matcha panacotta is actually quite good. Bittersweet green tea but too overly fragrant and dry and tough for me. It's very matcha XD but still not something i enjoy a lot.

The only thing i do love is their ocha. Bitter like the way i like it, and it's only 8k XD the service is good but i just don't like the way they clean up, they took each empty plate just after you picked up the last remaining roll on that plate. The waiter/waitresses came 4 times to picked up the plate just after i took the last roll on that plate. They were polite though but i feel like they're kicking us out. Though we did took our time there XD

Beside sushi they also have the usual Japanese dish like udon, curry etc but i was a bit discourage to come again. I'll miss the cute plate!! But well maybe not the food.
