REVIEW:Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar

Labels:

A friend will oftentimes put this "status" in his YM. Oh well, I can totally relate to that. I went into a shopping spree again. I really dont intend to, but i just cant help myself. That's how I am. I dont want to justify what I have done but I just read an article in Today about "smart shopping can somehow help the economy."


I believe in that. I cant help but compare Singaporeans to Filipinos. Hasnt it cross your mind how many shopping malls there is in this small island? Almost every MRT stations has a shopping mall, mini mall, commercial complex attached. Even LRTs have. And these people not just go there because its aircon (ahem!). You will notice that almost all of them will not go home empty handed. So they may earn more than Filipinos, but how many times have I heard about Singapore being one of the top cities listed with a soaring high cost of living. So I guess its also on how the money is being circulated. Don't you think?



Anyway, this is a blog on where to eat. Sugar (you will hear him oftem) and I went to eat in City Hall called Shokudo Food Bazaar. If you're new in Sg, heres a thing to know about Singaporeans. They love to eat! Almost every block have Hawker centers aka Food court. And if you are looking for a good resto, it wont be a "headache"---a Singlish term for "causing headache". Google it and you will have a long list of resto reviews.



Well, here's mine. Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar is located B1 of Raffles Shopping Center. You can again google for some pictures. But I would say that the place overall is 10 stars. Ambiance 10 stars as well. I just have to warn you that if you plan to have your dinner here during weekdays office hours, you might want to bring some crackers with you while waiting on a long queue. When I went there for the first time we waited for maybe 20 minutes. So that will probably explain how delicious the menu is.



This type of restaurant by the way has their own unique way of taking your orders. Dont worry they will ask you in the entrance if youve been there before or is it your first time there. They will give you this sort of credit card (dont dare lose it as it automatically costs S$50). Once inside, you will be welcomed by a Japanese ancient soldier which my officemate had a chance of taking pictures with. There are 10 or more stalls of Japanese food, which you can request for the cooks to cook for you. Shortest waiting time will be on the Dessert Section. Around 2 minutes. Longest will be on the Grill section, 10 minutes. You can wait there or just come back with the receipt.



The food--10 stars. Its quite pricey too. First time I went there, we spent S$50 for the two of us. Second time, the three of us (with ofcmate) spent S$80. Today, S$50 again.

Heres our order and the price



2 mineral water $3.40

1 salmon cheese cut Maki $7.50

1 Chuka Iidako $2.50

1 Grilled Suqid w/ almond rice $10.80

1 tempura rice bowl $9.50

1 yaki tori $2.50

1 quail egg with bacon $2.50

1 waffle w/ ice cream (white coffee ^_^) $5.80

plus 10% svc charge

plus 7% GST



TOTAL: $51.20 (good thing we agreed of dutch or else...waaaaaaaaaah)



I was not able to take pictures. But the food that they have can only be described as DELICIOUS! I will definitely recommend this place.



Direction: Alight cityhall MRT. Go all the way up to Raffles Mall. Go down to B1. Theres an escalator beside Starbucks that you can use. Then turn all the way left.



Happy eating! and let me know what you think. :)
