Don had to settle something regarding his convocation at The Otomotif College on that day, so we headed to SS 2 quite early in the morning. I could recall both of us searching around the area to decide on a place for breakfast. We were quite indecisive, because many restaurants were still closed or they did not operate on that day. So we ended up at Win Soon Cafe.

 
We shared a cup of Hot White Coffee at RM3.00. My mum could make one of her own at much lower price. It tasted just like 3-in-1 coffee, but highly priced.

 
I had Fish Head Meehoon at RM9.50, simply because I would always go for the most original version for its taste. Guess what? It tasted like an overpriced bowl of noodles with fried fish. I could always have something similar at any other restaurants at around RM5.00!

 
Don had their Fish Paste Sotong Ball and Fish Head Meehoon. I’m not sure about the ingredients, but the soup wasn’t even close to good. Meh!

I will be sure not to return to this cafe ever again, and surely, I wouldn’t even want to recommend this restaurant to anyone at all. Huge disappointment!

Before Nadeje finally opened its outlet in Petaling Jaya, I had been trying different types of Original Mille Crepe from one place to another, and I concluded that Arthur's Hokkaido Mille Crepe Cake served the best one among all. Or should I say that its Original Mille Crepe is the only edible one compared to all that I have tried? Ever since I visited Nadeje, I now have two options for a piece of Original Mille Crepe!

 

 
As I put a mouthful of my Original Mille Crepe into my mouth, I could instantly feel the many layers of the cake, and I immediately fell in love in the cake. However, a layer of sugar was added on top, making it slightly too sweet for my liking. It’s actually the texture that I like, whereas for the one available at Arthur's Hokkaido Mille Crepe Cake, it’s the taste that attracts me.

 
Don, who always loves to be adventurous, had their Cheese Mille Crepe. Personally, I wouldn’t even recommend this because I would only go for Original Mille Crepe, but Don said that it was good. The feeling was there, and it has very strong smell of cheese.

 
We shared a cup of Iced Hazelnut Café at RM8.80. It literally burned a big hole in our pocket. I wouldn’t think it was worth the price, since it was merely okay as a cup of coffee.

During our visit, we had to queue for quite a while since it was a Sunday. The shop wasn’t spacious, so it was quite pack, and the tables available indoor are very limited. We eventually had to sit outside and dealt with the cigarette smell and hot weather. Hence, if you hate to be in such situation, I would suggest you to bring it back home and enjoy it in a better environment, unless if you’re lucky enough to grab a seat in the shop itself. Price wise, the cakes were priced similarly to the other competitors so I was fine with it.

It has been a while since the day I started to have strong craving for Mille Crepe. The ones available at Ochado are never in my list, but since Don and I were killing time at Sunway Pyramid, we decided to give it a try to avoid boredom.

 
Usually, we would go for any kind of milk tea. This time in particular, we were on an adventurous mode, so we decided to try Grape Yogurt Aloe Vera Tea. I loved to bite the aloe vera lying underneath, but once is just enough for the cup of drink. I personally dislike the feeling my throat was having then, just because of the tea.

 
Unfortunately, Vanilla Mille Crepe was sold out, so we had no choice but to order Chocolate Mille Crepe instead. I thought it wasn't worth the penny. I would usually prefer to feel the layers of crepes as I bite it, but this piece of Chocolate Mille Crepe was slightly too sticky and not something I would want to eat ever again.

I have heard of positive comments about the milk tea offered by Ochado, so I guess I should just stick to it and forget about any other drinks available.

That night, I had a date with my girlfriends at Asia Cafe, a premier food court offering an array of food and beverages from all over the globe, including Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and the others. As usual, since I don’t usually come to this place due to its environment, I ordered Lemongrass Grilled Chicken with Rice from Vietnamese Cuisine. It was recommended by one of my friends.

I was disappointed when the food was served. The drumstick had shrunk compared to my previous experiences with the same stall. Taste wise, it was just okay. The smell and taste of lemongrass was nowhere to be found. I would say that I was basically eating Grilled Chicken with Rice, instead of Lemongrass Grilled Chicken with Rice.

Meh! I should start to consider giving the other food stalls a try.

The enterprise group, Watami Co., Ltd., was developed in 1984 and was listed on the Japan Exchange in March 2000. The core service of Watami group is in food service business. Besides, it is aggressively challenging to different areas of business such as "Agriculture", "Environment", "Education", and "Nursing home". More than 600 restaurants were developed in Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Shenzhen and Shanghai up to date. Each brand has its own characteristics to provide the multiplex choice for the customer.

Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant is a new type of tavern that concentrates on providing food with less emphasis on alcohol at affordable prices. It serves delicious Japanese food and drinks in a comfortable atmosphere. The dining environment is good for causal gathering and family. – Copied and edited from Watami Malaysia (http://www.watami.com.my/)

It wasn't really our first experience at Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant. We had our first try at One Utama Shopping Centre, and it was good although slightly overpriced.

As usual, a cup of Hot Green Tea would be the best drink to go along with Japanese cuisine. Don had Iced Green Tea instead, and both were refillable.

Thanks to Don for ordering their Zaru Soba, which is literally cold soba, it was exactly when I changed my impression on soba. Since young, I used to consider it as a weird dish with funny taste and I dared not try it, only to realize that I was totally wrong all the while. Dip the soba into the sauce and eat it right away, I'm sure you will be amazed by such delicacy.

According to him, as I never eat sashimi, the Salmon Sushi Don was a "thumbs up", while I would only prefer their Tamago Yaki, the egg rolls on the side.

I had my Eel Pot Rice, or Unagi Kamameshi, with an additional Fresh Egg. I loved it, although the process was threatening. I have mentioned that I was in hunger before settling down at Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant. When I placed my order, I was informed that I had to wait for 3 minutes before I could start eating my food, and I agreed. Apparently, the time I had to wait for my meal to be cooked was way more than merely 3 minutes! I felt cheated.

Still, it is recommendable if you do not mind having sticky rice, which is my favorite of all time. I did not regret adding the Fresh Egg right before it was completely cooked. The great smell of egg was just irresistible!

Priced at approximately RM41.50 per person, it had burnt a hole in his wallet. Despite so, I will still be sure to return occasionally. Ah, their Zaru Soba! lol
