Friday Dinner@Ebisboshi Shotengai

4th floor@Iluma is a floor full of restaurants and most of them you don't see it anywhere in Singapore. I like this area coz it has high ceiling so gives you a feeling of spaciousness.

You get empire state, marble slab creamery, cheeky chocolates, manhattan fish market, Ebisboshi Shotengai, Hua Li Xuan, asian kitchen, empire noodles, thai express etc. Jap was the choice, even the Ebisboshi Shotengai has 3 separate eating area.

One is Tsubohachi, second is the maid cafe tora shabu, third is a combination of menya manpei, teppan no honshi, katsuya and sweet brothers. We went to the 3rd one because I felt like having ramen, menya manpei served them.

The setting was abit dark and of course, the interesting thing about Ebisboshi Shotengai is you take your own orders with a talking pen.

The menu has some tag on each item, so tapping the pen on the item, means selecting it ... then you follow by selecting quantity. So you repeat this, till you finish and "send" the order by tapping on "Send" on the menu with the pen. The teppanyaki items are good, the squid though quantity not alot, but is savoury and just the right chew is enough. The teppan bamboo clam just as good, very tender and with the right amount of garlic. At $8.90 each, still consider reasonable but can be cheaper.



The charsiew ramen is also not bad. Soup base doesn't seem got anything speical but still tasty, the ramen are abit thick and chewy. And the charsiew are the thickest i ever had in a ramen, 4 pieces, just enough.



The desserts are from Cheeky Chocolates, at the same 4th flr area. The cheeky chocolate crepes, at $7.90 considered good. It is like a cheaper version of the ones at Canele, you don't get the fancy condiments. Just crepes, a strawberry, chocolate ice cream, whip cream, the 2 huge crepes are chocolate flavoured, must mention is the ice cream, gives you not only choclate taste, something else in it. The warm choclate cake, also at $7.90, at this price, very good. Outside is soft and crisp with the oozing chocolate flowing out, the sour blueberry can take away some of the chocolatey taste if you want. The vanilla bean ice cream is as good.
