Biers go Kinpachi

Bini kept telling me how good was Rakuzen, so finally we found a reason to try upper class Japanese food! We always manage to have some reason to celebrate, don’t we Bini? :D Instead of going back to Rakuzen which Bini had tried, we chose another one which is near our place – Kinpachi. It is hidden on the first floor, and the block is usually human-less at night. If netizens never blog about it, we would never know such good stuff exists!

Anyway, the menu is comprehensive and for a while I was stunned not knowing what to order. Maybe I was too hungry and everything sounds perfect! In the end, we settled with below

IMG_5589 Seasonal sashimi platter. Awesome stuff though we can only recognize salmon, tuna and scallop + roe. They just melt in your mouth.. mmm mmmph!
IMG_5595 Unagi Dragon roll. Another awesome stuff. When you bite on it, the Unagi melt and mix with the rice perfectly. All thumbs and toes up!
IMG_5599 Soft shell crab. Bini thinks it is average but I like it! It is different from normal as there is no batter and flavour is very rich!
IMG_5600 Bento set. Nothing to hooha about this except the tempura prawn. The prawn meat is very smooth. We should order by itself next time, right Bini?
IMG_5586 Asahi Beer. A little too light for my liking. Will try Kirin beer or sake next round :D

Overall, we are extremely satisfied with the quality! Mind you, it is a pricy place but you get what you pay! So good that we want to go back again, in near future! :D
