The ngoh hiong was the bomb. Savoury, garlicky and crunchy from the diced waterchestnuts, with a distinct saltiness reminding me of the ngoh hiong many years ago from a coffeeshop stall at the Commonwealth Cresecent Market. Nice.
Himawari Japanese Restaurant at Alexandra Road is a crowded place at lunchtime on weekdays. Office workers from the surrounding areas come for the affordable set lunch deals.
Here's the bossam lunch set from Ju Shin Jung. Even though it was only a half portion, it was rather filling; I had trouble finishing it all and I had been on an empty stomach since last night. These guys have some pretty decent lunch deals, especially since they are very generous with their banchan too.
I actually resisted having a buffet but after seeing the serving of Kumo Japanese Dining, I'm pleased. Every portion was manageable and food quality is of standard.

One thing you really shouldn’t miss is their larger than usual assortment of Tempura Agemono for you to sample.
I've finally figured out the right things to order at Qin Ji: the liangpi, along with this.
a place i will come back again.
And yes, I got a bowl of liangpi to go with it. They included some crunchy soybeans in there for some added texture, and it was rather garlic-heavy too. I'd be interested in coming back to try their other soups and roujiamo fillings.
