Honjin

Back to Honjin... think this must be the 4th time here. It is not fantastic, the quality is inconsistent, but i guess the 1 for 1 buffet gimmick is enough to tempt me. Like the Pig said, it is not really the food that is good, but it is just fun choosing food and eating as much as I want. In fact i think the best dish and most consistent dish here is the erm... watermelon and orange slices! k but nevertheless what keeps us coming back for more is the free flow unagi and salmon! Anyway having said this, i shall give credit to the company that never fail delight me. Sometimes good company automatically bring about good food!

Just some photos of the buffet... too lazy to continue taking.

Our desserts to share...
The not very nice Tiramisu recommended by the waitress... much prefer the 'take-away' version of the Tiramisu. Apparently this one we had is called devimisu or something like that.. too much cream.

The Choco-Nana.. ooo as I'm typing this, it finally hit me as to why this is called Choco-nana... chocolate and banana... soooo sloowww.. something wrong with the brain..

Tampopo

Sashimi to share

Wei's supposedly Berkshire Pork rice. Supposedly cos she was suspicious about the pork that was served.. She says that Black Pig is supposed to be fattier than that!

Plat's Salmon Chirashi

And finally, something that i have always wanted to try cos well... i am attracted to anything that has a raw egg as a topping. This is my beef curry rice with egg! The first few bites were yummy and it is especially good if you like gooey, soft, baby food... like me =) but i got kind of hot and tired eating it after a while. Hot because it was served in a stone bowl that kept the rice warm till the last few bites... Hmmm maybe i should buy a stone bowl cos i absolutely love my food HOT! The only thing about this rice dish is that it is deceivingly fatty! the beef pieces were all lined with thick layers of fats, but you cant really see it cos it is a mess of chessy, glooey, brown curry sauce. Nevertheless, I love beef fats! but of course not too much!
