Dimples Turns Wiser - Zipangu

Maybe I should start a food blog cos the next few posts are all related to food.
It's Dimples' bday and when your bday falls on a public holiday, u know your options are limited. So after much googling and seeking friends' suggestions, I finally decided on Zipangu in Shangri-La Hotel.

WOW....... (yeah wait till u hear about the bill)

So the list starts here...
So we ordered
1) Salmon and Tempura Set
2) Tempura Hand Roll
3) Soft Shell Crab Sushi Roll
4) Sashimi - for 2-3 people
5) Grilled Wagyu Beef - 100g

Salad and 2 Appetizers (vege+sesame tofu)Prawn Soup with mushrooms
Goose Liver + Boiled Winter Melon
Not my favourite but i would have to say its not too badBalance of Miso Soup - taste great actually
Tempura
(who doesn't like this?)
Salmon + Rice
Chawan Mushi
(nothing like the ordinary)
Ice Cream
(im already too full when we reach to dessert)
AND THE ABOVE ITEMS COMES FROM THE SET DINNER

Next items on the order are:-
Tempura Hand Roll

- look quite sad and the seaweed dont even seem to hold the rice inside (Not recommended)

Soft Shell Crab Sushi Roll
- a huge disappointment. Cant even taste the crab. (Not recommended)

Sashimi - for 2-3 people
(if budget is a constraint, just try the salmon sashimi cos thats the best)

Grilled Wagyu Beef - 100g
(REALLY AWESOME!!! A MUST TRY although the price is a bit of a killer)

Then came the little surprise for the birthday boy. I would have to say that Zipangu did a really bad job surprising and also in the cake deco.. but glad dimples enjoyed it. So did I...

FREE AD SPACE.. anyone?

Baby bunny keep reminding me, "Blog about 88db.com la"
And I think her boss must be paying her loads to ask her friends to write about the company. Not easy being a marketing manager huh..

Anyway, the site is cool and it allows you to advertise for FREE (who says nothing comes free these days?)

And of course, being kiasu, I had to upload a few ads for my sister who is a veteran and professional make up artist. But then again, maybe my sister dont need any of the advertisement seeing that her calendar is always full. I could be wrong. So no harm advertising this
So yes, if you anything to sell, promote, market,
POST an ad in 88db.com It's free anyway. :D
