mmm, food.

so yesterday i went with my family to shimizu~!! the buffet that is.

there wasn't much of a variety so i got myself some..

LOTS of fatty salmon sashimi, sushi, unagi, some miso soup, lots of tea, x2 caramel slice, lots of oranges, lots of jelly, chicken katsu, crab stick salad thing, some beef which is half raw and cold but was nice, all from the area where you get your stuff.

after you sit down they will bring some takoyaki, teppanyaki, and mixed tempura. all of them were nice but i have to say.. i think i got sick of takoyaki. so we ordered MORE teppanyaki and tempura because they were the best <3>

the prawn tempura was REALLY nice.. the prawn they used were fresh and it was all bouncy inside the mouth ^^ (can't explain this really well)

the highlights of the buffet i guess.. is the tempura, fatty salmon and caramel slice.

but why caramel slice you wonder..

thats because its the best i've ever tasted~ and it goes all melty inside your mouth unlike the ones you buy outside. i got sick after the first one but i didnt care.. i just had to get more and made myself even more sick o_o

its around $45pp but hey, all that prawn and raw salmon i took probably made up for it (mom took ugh..the whole row probably) and if you're planning to go eat there its better to book beforehand! the tables were all full when it came to about 7.30pm ish~ (we even had to line up to get our tea)

all in all, it was a pretty good jap buffet experience.

i give it 8.5/10
