California Salad. Jelly fish, Chawanmushi, Baby Octopus, Kimichi (Appetizers, anti-clockwise)
Seafood Salad
Honjin Japanese at Chow House Robinson Rd is getting quite well known for their Ala-carte buffet which serve big plates of sashimi, free flow. Many years back we were here on a credit card 1-for-1; today's were on Groupon deal.
I love Japanese salad and all its appetizers. Without hesitant i made a full order for the listing and thoroughly enjoyed the crunchy greens and savory sides!!
Tuna Maguro, Hamachi, Salmon Shake, Tako (Sashimi)
Yes, this the place to be if you were so craving for a good serving of all-you-can-eat Sashimi; each slices thickly cut for a satisfying chew. We made a repeat order for the firm textured Hamachi and sweet Tako.
Yellow tail Hamachi, Tako Octopus
Grilled Salmon & Grilled Chicken with sweet sauce, Edamane (salted green soy bean)
And you must have their grilled salmon! Even Ric who hates fish, obediently gobble one. It is oishii.
Soft Shell Crab, Salmon Skin (Mini Handroll)
Up till this junction, everything had been almost perfect - well cooked food served warm from the stove, chilled food fresh from the chiller, all's fine and crisp in ideal portion.
Food standard starts going downhill as we begin ordering from the 2nd section of the ala-carte buffet menu - fried pork Tonkatsu, Gyoza, Kakiage, assorted Tempura, with boring Maki roll, Buckweat noodles, Udon and Ramen left a bad taste in the mouth. Only the Ebi Prawn Tempura was worth saving some appetite for.
Quite disappointingly, 6 slices of orange were served as dessert to end the meal; being fruit-of-the-day.
Hot Buckweat noodles, Garlic Fried Rice
Gyoza, Ebi Tempura, Shitake Mushroom, Eggplant & Sweet potato (Age-Mono, clockwise)
