I know I have blogged about Sushi Zanmai not too long ago but I have to blog about it again as this time, it was an eventful lunch at this Japanese fast-food restaurant with a reputation of serving delish yet affordable Japanese cuisine. First, we could not believe our eyes when we saw that the queue was for once not over 10 meters long, literally and there was no double queue outside the restaurant. So what made this lunch so eventful and unforgettable? Read on but first, pull out a hanky to dab your dribbling saliva ;p
Some of the pre tummy fillers from the conveyor belt whilst waiting for our yummy hot and piping ala carte dishes…
Don’t know what this is called but it tastes like some kind of sea shell. Very tasty and love the texture of the meat.
Must have California rolls for the 3 famished angels…
Health freak mummy’s fat-free salmon sashi — all mine. I was craving for something light that day and it was actually my idea of coming to Sushi Zanmai …
Grilled Saba fish, mine too, for a low-carb freak…
Seafood salad, all mine too!
Beef Sukiyaki…
Beef teppanyaki, which is hubs’ pick…
The girls beaming with joy when they saw that the queue was only this short as compared to the perpetual long queue and overly-packed restaurant that we always see each time we pass by this restaurant.
Though the food was delish and satisfying, I have to say that the super cramped small table that we got spoiled our entire meal at Sushi Zanmai coz you know what? First Miss Clumsy Pot spilled her full glass of cold green tea all over the table and seat. Waitresses had to rush over to our rescue to wipe the table. Minutes later, daddy’s elbow knocked onto a piping hot bowl of noodles with soup and 50% of the hot soup splashed onto his shirt and pants. Cass who was seated next to him was not spared and she yelped out in shock and pain when the hot soup splattered onto her thigh and hands. So the excitement of easily getting a table and having the food served to us in a jiffy all ended in an abrupt halt with 2 messy scenes, just within 15 minutes of being seated at the table. We were all knocking our elbows against each others’ elbows and the table, which was not even a meter long was filled with food, bowls, glasses and things right up to the edge. Well, I guess you can’t have the best of both worlds. You pay this price for good food, do not expect an environment and setting of a 5-star restaurant or hotel.
