| Can’t believe I have been blogging for 2.5 years already! Believe it or not I started to write just because it is just a way for me to polish my chinese, but now I decided to do a bit of both (chinese & english). Getting to know a lot of friends probably become the biggest achievement within this 2.5 years. Can’t remember how long we have been trying to schedule a time to do some catch up outside of work but tonight we are finally together to do some catch up. Luckily enough we are having dinner at Kokomi at Pacific Place , replacing the Roca which was right next to Thai Basil, 10 minutes from my office and all I have to do is to show up and enjoy my dinner. Mirin Grilled Dried Fish (Fugu) ($78) was the appetiser of the meal, a bit of chewy texture and go so well with mayo, guess it will be a better match if we have a beer or some sake. Too bad I gotta work the next day so I dare not to consume any alcohol. Seared Salmon ($48/2pcs) and Sweet Shrimp ($38/2pcs) Sushi was recommend by the Manager. a good balance texture and favour of the rice goes so well with the fresh ingredients. Not as good as a Sushi specialist, but good enough especially if you take a look at the price. Freshness plays the most important part of Sashimi, we had Salmon, Scallop , YellowTail (Hamachi ) and Chu Toro in the platter tonight. I don’t think I would use words to tell you how it taste like, how if I tell you “thumbs up”? This sashimi platter definitely make me a happy kid tonight. Crab meat avocado & tofu salad with spicy dressing ($78) may not be anything surprising, but replacing the sesame dressing with someone refreshing is not a bad idea, at least I got a better appetite after having this dish! Baked oyster with wasabi sauce ($58/2pcs) was a surprise for me, I eat spicy food but mustard and wasabi isn’t my thing so I would just say no if I knew it has wasabi favour in the first place. But my frd said it taste kinda sweet so I grab one on my plate to try it out. This oyster has a mild wasabi favour with a creamy texture , I won’t say I like it but I won’t say no if I got offered another one. Exceptional case towards my tolerance on wasabi items.I The dried shrimp and vegetable tempura flitter ($55) is a very filling item. It was crispy enough yet they are not dried out, is one of friend’s favourite , so we have a legitimate reason to order it right? A beef shabu shabu ($238) was served before our sweet treat, the borth is sightly lighter then a sukiyaki pot , with beef vegetables noodle and mushroom is there it is just not likely to go wrong! IT would taste better if there is a bit of more fat on the beef slices though. Apparently the dessert here cannot be missed! Like I said I am not the one who ordered so I just ate anything they arranged. Tempura Banana Boat ($58) was the first one we had, the banana is lightly battered! it does go well with the ice cream and chocolate sauce, eat it quick otherwise the ice-cream will melt! The 2nd one is the Green Tea Panna Cotta, Red Bean Cream Sauce and Sesame Ice-cream ($58), Pretty much they just combined the 3 japanese traditional sweet favour in different state of matter! A smart combination and good contrast in terms of its color, and it also comes with a thin crispy almond slice to give a better texture. My favourite dessert of the night was the Okinawa Coconut pudding with pineapple ice cream ($58), it reminded me of the Pineapple and coconut favour of haagen dazs that I had when I was back in the states. Making use of the sweetness of the young coconut and plus the pudding, and using pineapple ice-cream to balance up the favour, it was no doubt a very good dessert and perfect for summer! Turns out the bill was so cheap which is less than $2000 for 1 group of 4 and its value for money consider it locates in PP. They also do teppanyaki as well and got lunch sets available, will go check this place out again very soon. Thanks a lot for the great company my dear friends, never get tired of talking to you girls.
