Sangokai Japanese Restaurant @ Upper Thomson Road

The Japanese Restaurant is located at the row of shop houses along Upper Thomson Road. I was surprised the restaurant served us an appetizer after taking our order. I thought it was complimentary until I saw the charges in the bill.

Anyway, the appetizer was a cold dish of Octopus, Radish, Carrot and Cucumber infused in a citrus sauce. The taste was subjective to individual palate.

Octopus Appetizer 3.5/5

The Shake Mentai Yaki Set has BBQ Salmon with Cod Roe Sauce, Salad, Miso Soup, Rice and Fruit. The Salmon had a very nice melting texture with a lay of Cod Roe coated on the surface of the Salmon.

The Yakitori & Kinoko Nitsuke Set has BBQ Chicken Skewer, Braised Mixed Mushroom and Vegetable, Salad and Rice. The BBQ Chicken Skewer had a nice sweet grilled fragrant from the Teriyaki Sauce. The Mushroom and Vegetable was well simmered in the soya sauce base broth, soft and tasty that goes very well with the rice.

N & B Snacks @ Potong Pasir

After my dinner at Hong Kong Street Chun Tat Kee, I still have some space for dessert so I went to check out N & B Snacks at the HDB block across the carpark. N & B Snacks made fresh Soya Bean Milk and Beancurd themselves everyday. The eatery has a simple interior design and a couple of fridge to store the Soya Bean Milk and Beancurd.


I had the Soya Bean Milk with Peanut Dumplings. It is a dessert that I can enjoy all three of my likings, Soya Bean Milk, Beancurd and Peanut Dumplings. Both the Soya Bean Milk and Beancurd were fresh and smooth. The disappointment was the Peanut Dumplings were from those instant packet and not made by them but it tasted okay with a lot of peanut fillings.
