Japanese Mochi

I tried these mochi from Sagachiku at PS B2. My preference is the one with red bean filling which are the 2 whole ones in the pic. The green one has a slight herbal taste in it. The stall sells another flavour with potato filling but it was unavailable & thus I didnt get to try it.

Mochi (sticky rice cake) is a traditional food in Japanese food culture. It is made of glutinous rice, pounded into paste and then molded into its shape.

Food Binge Time

This post will be different from the rest of our previous posts. Nothing to do with the learning of the japanese language..Just wanna share a few pics of some nice food I've tried. I can finally put my camera to some good use instead of letting it collect dust until my next holidays materialise. I've seen so much pictures on foods in other people's blogs & I think its not a bad idea to do that here as well.


It's flat noodles & duck slices served chilled with a special duck broth dip (hidden under the little red plate). I've never been a big fan of cold noodles at all, so I just "stole" a few mouthfuls from my friend's & hey, its not bad. I like the texture of the noodles, firm & chewy. The duck broth for dipping the noodles is thick & tasty too. Cold soba is more common in local restaurants here but this is really worth a try!


A very familiar dish - Tonkatsu Don. It comes with a generous amount of eggs (my favourite, the more the merrier). The pork is very tender & each piece comes with a little fatty bit but I'll rather do without the fatty bits though ~ fattening haha


The restaurant's signature is grilled skewers. This is black pepper yakitori & shitake with pork wrapped with seaweed. If you like black pepper, you'll like the strong black peppery taste of the yakitori.


Dessert time!!! The left one is my all time favourite ~ Yuzu Sherbet & the right one is Red Bean ice-cream. I've first tried the Yuzu Sherbet years back at another different restaurant & its always a must-have whenever I'm there. It comes with a few small bits of the fruit, has a very refreshing & slightly citrus taste so its still easy to "stomach" it even if I'm already full. In fact the scoop is never enough :)
For those with a very sweet tooth, you'll like the red bean ice-cream. Its very sweet & rich with milk as well.

Ok, that's all for now. Will post other oishii food again in the future. If you have recommendations for nice japanese food, please feel free to share!
