I better play safe and minimise intake of seafood now. My job teach me about radiation, so I'm taking precaution steps here.<br /><br />too many food tried but no time to write everything down, pushing my old files out as soon as I can.

KVINLIM<br /><br />i was actually at Rakuzen 2 days before this and the place was packed !! .. so much for fear of radiation in the fish ..:):) i kinda leave the detection to our fisheries import officials ... especially now with the heightened awareness on the "fukushima" effect .. i am certain the guys will catch on this a lot faster than us ...<br /><br />i cant really put my finger to what is wrong especially when the prepared food from the kitchen were quite ok ... though i thought the cheese flavored oysters were quite tacky from the photos ...<br /><br />my initial reaction when i encounter situations where differing qualities are evident is<br /><br />a) cash flow issues with suppliers<br />b) change in head chefs or key cooks<br />c) lack of understanding on fundamentals of food quality<br /><br />all said, though from other reviews the establishment appears well funded and committed to quality<br /><br />and with the popularity of Nihon Tei down the road, i would be certain that management would not have let their guard down ...<br /><br />thanks again for sharing your views .. i look forward to your reviews on future hidden gems ..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3931597925319367006.post-47896010274511503812011-04-04T08:44:09.142+08:002011-04-04T08:44:09.142+08:00nice review, basically their quality seems like ne...nice review, basically their quality seems like never improve, similar experience to my earlier visit. the place is empty most probably because of the worries on radiation issue, surprise that you still go for japanese foods at this peak time. i avoided all together, just in case. and that might be the cause of limited supply on their fish during that time. I'm not going back though, prefer to spend the money on some better food i reviewed earlier ...KVINLIMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04547933737894475657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3931597925319367006.post-50062279913603863312011-04-02T21:50:42.858+08:002011-04-02T21:50:42.858+08:00just came back from Ishin ...
surprisingly it was ...just came back from Ishin ...<br />surprisingly it was quite empty for a saturday nite ...<br /><br />opted for the sushi bar so that i can observe the hygiene and skills levels of the sushi chef ... it is usually a good indicator of the owner commitment to quality ..<br /><br />bar looks ok .. not impressive ..<br /><br />1st warning sign ... absence of higher end tuna like chutoro and otoro ... so ordered salmon belly and hamachi instead<br /><br />but was told that hamachi is not available .. was recommended kampachi instead ...chef indicated that it was the same fish .. hmmmmm ???<br /><br />anyway ordered as recommended<br /><br />2nd warning sign ... despite being served on ice ... the slices were not cold ...<br /><br />commented that to chef ... looked surprised but did not offer to replace<br /><br />3rd warning sign ... wakamme salad came ... same situation ... warm and cucumbers certainly looked aired (dryish due to left in open air for too long)<br /><br />from seafood bento set though i must say the cooked food was good, the fried rice, the grilled salmon. and prawns were all tasty and presented well ...<br /><br />and the teapot soup was not bad .. it took a long time for it to come though .. but worth the wait<br /><br />Overall experience was indifferent, i felt the layout and the use of iPAd as a menu to be refreshing, <br /><br />the kitchen for grilled and teppanyaki food is good but<br /><br />the sushi bar and cold dished totally lacking in pedigree ... it seems to me they were trying to sell common items expensive with emphasis on presentation ..<br /><br />in fact, i have seen more enthusiastic sushi counter assistant in Sushi King<br /><br />will i return ... like the many who thronged this place when it first open ... not likely for the price ..:):)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3931597925319367006.post-23468224807615679642010-07-22T07:31:05.362+08:002010-07-22T07:31:05.362+08:00that's true also, lots of ppl helping you to t...that's true also, lots of ppl helping you to take care of your car. but thought no ppl interested with our "kind" of cars =PKVINLIMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04547933737894475657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3931597925319367006.post-57905038093152034182010-07-21T00:52:09.176+08:002010-07-21T00:52:09.176+08:00i like the parking, can eat in peacei like the parking, can eat in peaceTNShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09808366357720724061noreply@blogger.com
