In times of recession, people are looking to stretch-their-dollars in whatever they can. So, we decided to jump on the bandwagon and went to Ryoichi Sushi @ Suntec for their Weekday Value Meal. A plus point - this value meal is valid on Friday nights as well (till a certain timing), unlike some other restaurants which classify Friday nights in the same league as Sat & Sun.
As expected, lots of other patrons are queuing up to lay their hands on the value meal.
We took the counter seat; if not it will be another 20 min wait for a table.
Leecher's enthusiastic face @ the stretch-your-dollar-meal that he will be having.
I was pretty fascinated by the "water spray" thingy at the bar counter. Leecher said that the spray will dispense different types of beverages depending on which button you press. Wah, so interesting.
Usual cam-whore while waiting for our food to come. No water was served, though I spotted white plastic cups on other patrons' tables :(
Complimentary plate of sashimi if you're paying with DBS/POSB credit card. Thick slices of sashimi, but not really that fresh though.
My order of Spinach Leek Yaki beef set. Beef was slightly salty (if I recalled correctly) but definitely better than Leecher's order of Unagi Tori Tamago Sullmono (below)
The Tamago soup was quite bland; can't really taste any tamago despite seeing it floating around.
Old-school ice cream being served, adding the final touches to the meal. We observed that the waiter(s) lacked consistency while scooping the ice cream. While one guy attempts to fill up the scope entirely with ice-cream, the others just 做个样子and scope the minimal. We even overheard
someone "scolding" the guy; saying that he scooped too much ice cream for the customer. Poor thing!
Leecher looks very pro when tasting his strawberry ice-cream & he went off to polish my portion. Well, that doesn't mean that the ice cream is that fantastic. Rather, the value meal can't seem to fill up his stomach, wa ha ha. Leecher 的胃大如宇宙.
Leecher's hands got really red while we were on our way back - cuz he was busy carrying our loots from The Body Shop sale, wa ha ha. See the contrast? Don't worry, I bought hand-cream & body lotion for him to soothe his hands :) wat a doting GF I am, wa ha ha :P
