Issho Izakaya @ Kallang Wave, Singapore.

First time checking out Kallang Wave, quite surprised as there's quite a few restaurants and makan places here. Anyway main reason was to recce this Jap place as I saw the happy hour promotions not bad. Came here for lunch first to look see look see.

Ordered a Bara Chirashi Don, costs 22sgd++. At first glance the bowl does look pretty and it came with a quail egg, nice touch to it. The shot glass accompanying it was the shoyu so you can pour accordingly on top. Food is decent, staff was attentive and friendly.

If there's one gripe about this place, I was a bit hampered by the portion, a bit small compared to other places. Don't get me wrong, normally by the end of a chirashi bowl, I'll get a bit jelak(too rich) and it fills up my tummy. This round I needed something extra to fill up the spot. I guess rental is high this days? Oh well did I mention they have pretty good deals for happy hours on weekdays? Check out their website.

Taiwan Railway Bento @ Kallang Avenue, Singapore.

I haven't been to Taiwan yet, so I can't really compare the quality of the food. But when a colleague of mine suggested this for take away for lunch in the office, why not? I'm always gamed for new cuisine.

Real wooden bento box, honestly just by looking at it was appealing. They have two outlets one being in International Plaza and the second at CT hub at Kallang Avenue which my colleague did a take away.

Chicken cutlet bento rice set. The bento looked small before I opened it, but boy oh boy, the cutlet was humongous, comes with a bit of lap cheong(chinese sausages), half egg, gravy and some vegetables. Chicken cutlet was awesome, its damn good and the other thing I loved was the pickled vegetables.This bento was just right, they managed to captured all the taste in one small box.

Another side view of the bento. Although it looks small from the outside, it really stuffed me up.
