Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar
Since the closure of Marché, there has been a new kid on the block to replace them in offering a bazaar style of ordering food. Here we have Shokudo, the Japanese "Marché".
Every patron is given a shokudo card to charge your purchases to it and very important thing to note is not to lose your card! A hefty fee is charged for the lost of cards.
THE QUEUE
This is what irks me when I think about eating at Shokudo. The queue seems neverending. Luckily for us, it was rather fast moving when we went the 1st time.
Side Tracking...
Actually I was a little hesitant about trying this as my previous experience at Shokudo Pasta & Pizza (City Link) was horrendous. All 3 of us hated the food while Marky went on to clear them for us and even felt that they tasted okay.
We had to wait super long to get seats, waited even longer for our food & bill to arrive. The service just sux. Plus they serve the worst pasta & pizza ever.. I can't even remember the exact pasta dishes we ordered. It was some Wafu sauce pasta. The worst part was the thin crust pizza..Somehow, the cheese just smells of vomit. SO UNAPPETIZING.
Our horrible dinner experience was freaking expensive & left us hungry still...so off we went to New York New York for some small bites & desserts to make up for it.
The moral of the story is ... don't bother eating at Shokudo Pasta & Pizza (City Link).
Back to the main topic of Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar. It is way better than their sister branch (Shokudo Pasta & Pizza). We enjoyed every morsel of food that we ordered. At least their pizza didn't stink and the wasabi on the pizza wasn't that bad, being the non-wasabi eater that I am.
The yakitori which I forgot to take pictures of, tasted really good! Especially the Tsukume (Minced Chicken Ball) Stick ($2.50) and bacon wrapped quail eggs.
The unagi omelette was pretty interesting & tasty (when it's hot) ($5.80) and the BBQ Eel with egg on hot plate ($6.80) was mediocre.
If you're a fan of mushrooms, the mushroom tempura will satisfy your cravings. The portion is huge & they're really crispy!
The Katsu curry lacked some kick but the rice made up for it =)
It was my first time eating sakura ebi on fried rice & it does add flavour to the boring fried rice.
Overall, it was a good experience @ Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar despite the expensive price tag. I might just be back again on a weekday when I don't have to queue...
