As such, it was dinner with daddy. I think my kids like this place since they didn’t protest when I suggested going there for some Katsu. We used to eat at Tonkichi but have not been there for a while after noticing that their standard and service have dropped - except for their prices.
.
Ordered the Ebi Furai and Rosu Katsu - crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Something that I look forward to is their free flow tonjiru soup - loved it so much I had 2 refills - and down all these with some Sapporo beer...!! And mommy missed all that...!!

The last time when I was that Michelin Star Soy Sauce Chicken Rice store at Chinatown Complex Food Centre - I didn’t want to join the long queue cos I thought maybe if I came back later, the won’t be any...and I was right - there’s wasn’t a queue at all - cos they were already closed...!! 😔 So this time - I decided to join the queue. Didn’t want to be disappointed again. The wait wasn’t too bad - just over 25 minutes.
.
Asked to add more chicken meat to my very inexpensive $2 plate of chicken rice. Loved the flavour and you could taste the marinade subtly infused in the meat. However, the breast meat was not as tender as I had hoped for. So in the future, maybe I will ask for thigh meant instead. The other disappointment was - the rice was a little too moist. Hmmm...I hope this doesn’t happen too often if th

🙄 So this time - I decided to join the queue in spite of the long queue. Didn’t want to be disappointed again. The wait wasn’t too bad - just over 25 minutes.

Loved this cream puff - the pastry was light and crispy. Filled with creamy custard made of Hokkaido Biei Jersey Milk, the puff oozes out loads of custard when cut.
.
Will try their parfaits the next time I’m there. Was told by my colleague that they’re really good...!

Went to Basilico cos I really like the ambience the last time I was there.
.
The other thing that I like about Basilico is their Antipasti buffet - what a spread - cured meat, seafood, salad, cheeses...!
.
I ordered the Coscia D’Anatra alle Cigliegie Agrodolci for my main - I have no idea how to pronounce that - but it’s basically Sweet & Sour Cherry Glazed Duck Leg, Grilled Artichokes, Porcini Mushrooms and Potato Galette. Ordered that cos I love duck. The meat was well marinated, flavourful and so tender...! My wife had the Wagyu Lasagne with Aged Parmesan Cheese Fondue and Beef Reduction. She liked it too but was unable to finish it cos she had too much of her appetisers...!!

Life begins after coffee... and an Apple Crumble Cake...!! The cake was a little too sweet for me though.

French Toast isn’t just for breakfast - had some Strawberry French Toast for my afternoon tea...!!
.
The warm French toast was topped with a generous amount of cut strawberries, a scoop of their homemade whipped cream, drizzled with strawberry sauce and maple syrup before dusting it with powdered sugar for a delightful finish. What’s not to like when it accompanied with a much needed cup of coffee - a Hikoboshi blend coffee to be exact...!!

There was no (long) queue so decided to give this a try. I wonder if i can duplicate this drink at home. After all, it’s just milk and what tasted like Gula Melaka.
.
I have to confess that I kind of liked it... it was frangrant, not overly sweet and the Boba pearls were soft and yet chewie. May try something different in the future - provided there isn’t a (long) queue...
