Not wanting to spend precious time cooking & washing, we decided to eat out & at the same time do some shopping.
It's been a long time since we stepped into this restaurant. We were surprised to be informed of the tea-time promotion of 30% off from the total bill for member.
The interior setting was a mixed of Zen & Modern Functionality. It exudes the uniqueness of Japanese serenity in a subtle way through... We ordered 2 set meals & a lunchtime special set. Hubby got the Beef Set, son had the Clam Set. The cheerful waitress served us a pot of hot glutenous rice green tea (member's privilege) as soon as she had taken our order. I used a complimentary drink coupon (c/w selected set meal in the menu) to redeem a cup of hot tea while son added a bottle of chilled Bubbly Sake to his set meal at a special price of only $10! My lunchtime special set consisted of...
a plate of Kushikatsu with Tonkatsu Sauce (2 skewers of chunky breaded Salmon, Shiitake Mushroom, Scallop & Leek) which were crispy outside, succulent & juicy inside;
a tiny container of extra Teriyaki sauce;
a bowl of well-seasoned kelp soup;
a chawanmushi with tender chicken, fishcake, crab stick & mushroom;
all the above is completed with a bowl of very flavorful Char Siew Rice that was of humongous portion!
I couldn't finished the whole Bento without help from hubby & son (as their portion were also very delightfully filling!)
The fact that the men kept eating was proof that their food must had been good also. Son was having endless time picking up the clam shells & chomping away while smiling at us ever so often... The Chef must had been very generous with the ingredients...
Verdict:
We had a great time enjoying each other's company, had a hearty time chatting & laughing for the time spent there & will definitely go back more often!

"EWYFD 2014 is a one of the key highlights of the International Year of the Family. The event aims to encourage Singaporeans to set aside a day to share a meal and spend quality time with their families. Through this event, CFF hopes to strengthen family ties by encouraging Singaporeans to eat together more frequently with their families throughout the year.
The act of eating together, especially in Asian societies, is a common social practice and it promotes family interaction. It is also a major element during important festive occasions such as Lunar New Year celebrations and birthdays. Families can bond over food and cherish family moments by having meals together. Family mealtime has become an integral and almost inseparable part of a family’s shared experience and contributes to the strengthening of the family unit."
