| Salad and starter. I can't remember what the starter was now but it was not bad. |
 |
| Here's the fondue! Very nice, especially in such cold weather! |
 |
| And then the crepes the kids were waiting for! Super delicious! |
 |
| The photo we took of James the last time we were here wasn't that good, so we had to make sure this one does him justice. |
 |
| I am not an oyster fan, but these fresh oysters were just FRESH! |
 |
| Some uni to get the taste buds going. |
 |
| And finally THIS is what we were waiting for. Alaskan crab legs! This time we made sure everyone had at least 1 leg each! The meat so sweet and juicy and the tangy dipping sauce, just took this to a whole new level! |
 |
| Clear clam soup, so fresh and so yummy! And great for such a cold night. |
 |
| I tried the clam chowder on the second visit but I think I preferred the clear clam soup better. |
 |
| Deep fried Smelt. Delicious! So crispy. The kids loved the the dipping sauce - thousand island with a spicy twist. |
 |
| Braised rock fish, always a favourite with the kids to eat with their Japanese rice. |
 |
| Potato wedges. Nice but have to admit the one at Bang Bang is still unbeatable. |
 |
| Grilled squid, once again delicious. |
 |
| Grilled salmon with a lemony sauce. The fish was wonderful, particularly loved the sauce. |
 |
| One of the kids wanted udon and for a seafood restaurant, the quality of the ubon is excellent! |
 |
| Once again, we had so much to eat, we couldn't stuff ourselves with dessert. James gave the kids some free brownies to take home. Suspect the brownies were homemade because they were, can't think of another word, delicious!!! |

| Wood fire. So cosy! |
 |
| The usual - chicken liver and asparagus wrapped with bacon. |
 |
| The best dish - ever! Potato wedges with a block of butter. |
 |
| Grilled salmon head. Not as big as I expected but lots of meat. |
 |
| Grilled Alaskan crab leg. Saltier than I expected. |
 |
| Deep fried dumplings. Different, prefer the usual pan-fried ones. |
 |
| Spicy miso ramen. Not too spicy but enough to warm the body up for the sub-zero temperature! |
 |
| G had the normal miso ramen - with only 1 piece of meat. Didn't know we could order extra meat till half way through the meal. |
 |
| G's favourite - onsen eggs. |
 |
| Before 12 and already a queue. |
 |
| Restaurant is small but well equipped. And everyone is there just to eat, people moved like a factory line! |
 |
| Look good, taste good! |
 |
| First to arrive were the salad and a bowl with sesame seeds. We were to crush the sesame seeds then mix with special sauce for the dipping the pork. |
 |
| The other bits of my set meal arrived. |
 |
| Although deep fried, the pork was crispy on the outside but juicy on the inside. Very tender! Excellent! |
 |
| G had the pork cutlet with curry. |
 |
| These bento boxes were beautifully displayed, so full of colours and so inviting. And best of all, they were delicious! |
 |
| Also bought some desserts and fruits. Yum! |
 |
| The chef at the back worked non-stop preparing all kinds of seafood for the tempura. And the chef in front prepared the tempura and served them to us as soon as they came out of the fryer! |
 |
| In this picture, the chef at the back was shelling mountains of prawns, that's after he filleted 2 huge fishes! |
 |
| This is the set we ordered. The tempura was served as and when cooked. Cannot get any fresher than this! |
 |
| In addition to the normal tempura dipping sauce, we were given 3 different types of salt. From top, plum flavoured salt, wasabi flavoured salt and normal salt. I think the wasabi salt is really interesting, followed closely by the plum salt. Made the taste of the tempura so much more interesting. |
 |
| Clam soup, super delicious! |
 |
| All done! Yum! |
