SQ Flight Fukuoka To Singapore.

With a heavy heart, time to fly back. I'm gonna miss Fukuoka sob sob. 



Damn the satay was excellent, thought it's gonna be dry but the satay was juicy and the peanut sauce was spot on. I booked the Hanakoireki meal in advance, good stuff. Lovely meal.




Had some assortment of cheese before landing to wash down the balance sake.  Finally at the lounge in Changi, my first time trying the signature curry laksa(as I am always scared of needing to go the loo in aircraft). Yup the curry laksa is a MUST try, now I know what's all the hype is about.

Thank you Singapore Airlines, always been good flying with you lot!

Various Izakaya @ Hakata DEITOS ANNEX @ Fukuoka, Japan.

I'm starting to love this cosy corner in Hakata Station where all the shops are specialising in Izakaya. This area gets packed after working hours. As my hotel was nearby, I've been popping by here almost every night to have a nightcap before retiring to bed. So I don't know which shop is called what, I'll just spam all the pics of the various restaurants inside. 
























Everything was perfect, zero complains on the restaurants here. Service is fast, food is good, the staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Oh yes don't forget to try the variety of booze available.

Hakata Bunka-ya Curry Shop 博多文化屋カレー店 @ Hakata Ward, Fukuoka, Japan.

Not far from Udon Taira, 5mins walk is a MUST GO place if you're a fan of Japanese curry. This place brings back me back in time, looks like a cafe full of manga books back in the 90s. Too bad I can't read Japanese, if not I would probably be here everyday just reading the sheer volume of manga labels they have. 


The outside of the restaurant is damn quirky, aiyak forgot to take a pic of the inside. Was too mesmerised by the smell of the curry. You can actually smell the curry from a few shoplots away. That's how I know it's gonna be good. 



My last night in Fukuoka, I went for the oxtail curry on rice. First time I'm seeing a Japanese curry with such a dark colour. Oh my, the meat just slide off from the bone, soft and tasty. The curry? Damn sonnn, this is top notch. Thick, but not the jelak type, super addictive. Make sure add on the red pickle, pairs damn well with the curry. Highly recommended!


Love it, confirmed on my list next trip I'm back here.
