17 September 2011 - Kiseki, again...

Miss Glutton wanted to have sashimi after browsing the fancy stores for a couple of hours. The most convenient place that came to mind was Kiseki. This is getting boring already...

Saw this guy on their way to the food hunt.


Trying out a new way of presenting the images, especially when many of them are out of focus. Something's wrong with him nowadays. Maybe it's the stress.

Assorted sashimi and the crabs


Yakimono, agemono and other cooked stuff. Don't remember having oysters of any sort in Kiseki before...


Mash of dessert, also the first time he's had so much dessert at one go.


Featuring her pictures too...

Assorted sashimi...


"Whole" crab, after seeing it in halves so many times.


"Whole" crayfish, didn't enjoy this as much as the prawns. Meat tasted plain.


Sauteed scallops


The item in between lady's finger and cocktail sausages was tasty and fragrant. Reminded him of sate lilit in Bali, fish paste slapped onto a stick of lemon grass and grilled.


A more "wholesome" yakimono picture of quail egg sticks


Desserts attack


Marshmallows in pudding?


Another plateful of dessert she polished off.


3 scoops of ice cream, nice. So much for being weight-conscious.

07 August 2011 - Kiseki

He was feeling lethargic due to the stalemate with throat/nasal infection, and also sustained a wisdom tooth extraction in midweek. But she said that to recover, one should act as if he weren't sick. So they ended up going for her shopping trots.

*few hours flew by*

Then came the dilemma, to eat in town or to have beef noodles at Lai Lai. As they walked on pondering, it was decided that they eat at Kiseki since they had crab and sashimi cravings. Prices went up by $2++ to $34.80++

Crab legs and mussels. He had plenty of snow crab legs and flower crabs. Sweet stuff, but probably bad for the wound. Ate with the right side of his jaw... probably took 2 times the time to eat.


Sweet sweet flower crabs


Sashimi and skewers of pork, curry sausages and prawns. The prawns were covered in salt and barbecued, perfect to awaken the taste buds of the sick. They also had skewers of chicken liver that were slathered with yakitori sauce, good stuff.


Baked shellfish - mussels and scallops covered in mentaiko.


More skewers, just can't stop... yet.


Fried food, polished off by her


Savoury seafood soup, never fails to whet appetite.


And finally some pretty looking dessert. These were very evil though, chock full of thick chocolate, no hollow spaces.


If you're wondering about the lack of pictures, it was because he had his hands full of crab...

20 Mar 2011 - Dinner at Kiseki

She was craving for buffet even when she was ill. This time, the requested victim was sashimi. Headed to Kiseki at Heeren, as other Japanese buffet options would definitely require prior reservations. The pictures in this post are all from her, as he was busy eating with his bare hands.

Checked in and went for the cold section first. Got some snow crab claws and legs. Some were sweet and really good, while a few were just bland.


Assorted sashimi, this was the second round selection by her. The first round was only a third the length of this. He commented on how after having tasted salmon sashimi made him dislike having cooked salmon ever since.


The whole array, picture uploaded at her request.


Shellfish selection... the scallops still had sand in them *cough*


They loved the soup from the beef hotpot, delicious and addictive but probably MSG-laden. Enjoyed the tender shiitake mushroom but disliked the fact that the beef slices were all stuck together, not sure if the chef was supposed to stir in the first place?


Did he say the soup was addictive? For the next round of soup, he got the seafood option. The tofu tasted weirdly doughy, never had anything like that in his life.


He also tried the technique of prawn peeling as seen on TV recently. Pierce the prawn from the back through to the front, and then pull the shell off. She wasn't impressed.


Got yakitori and some sushi, the bbq meat was salty stuff.


Salad for the sick girl, mixed of pasta and greens. Glad that she ate the tomato chunk when she hated it a lot. However, all the oil and dressing probably undid all the goodness.


More oily stuff, prawns were sweet and crunchy.


She never onced wanted omelette, but this time round she requested for it.


Witnessed this phenomenon. Waving bonito flakes on warm omelette. They were squirming and waving as though they were alive! Try it on your own next time.


Chawanmushi was brought onto the table along with the omelette, since their steam baskets were side by side.


Miscellaneous finger food that she picked up. He was already very full when she went to take this plate of food, but she still forced him to help finish it.


Her dessert catch, very kind of her already. Liked the lychee one, light and refreshing.


And they're done for the evening.
