Meals at Nichinan: Taikai大海 and 中央焼き肉店

 

Taikai 伊勢海老料理 大海

568-1 Miyaura, Nichinan, Miyazaki 887-0101, Japan

This place was a short distance from Sun Messe Nichinan and its highly recommended for their japanese spiny lobster. 


Its November and its when the lobster is in season from September to November.


Slimy seaweed appetiser that is sourish and grilled seashell on the house.

Interesting seashell that has another tiny shell. These shells is really hot after grilling.
Nanban fried chicken for the kids meal. This is standard japanese food.
Very chewy and tough abalone. Although the intestines are green and looked unappealing but it actually better in taste and texture than the abalone sashimi.

This is yummy and fresh.


Grilled lobster. But after tasting both, lobster sashimi would be a better choice as the meat became a little tough and dry after grilling. Though this is still good to eat. 
The lobster soup is so awesome!!!!

Very fresh and delicious sashimi. 

Due to the exchange rate, the price for the lobster set meal was so value for money. 

Fortunately for us, we were able to walk-in and seated without waiting. Food was served speedily. Overall, we really enjoyed our lunch here. I will definitely recommend having a meal here.  

中央焼き肉店

Japan, 〒887-0021 Miyazaki, Nichinan, Chuodori, 2 Chome−5−13

This is a last minute dinner place found by my sister while passing through the town. We were the only ones having yakiniku for dinner as the kids wanted MacDonalds. 

You need to climb up a very steep staircase to get to this shop. Be warned the owners can only speak japanese. But we managed by pointing what we want on the menu. 

The customers here seemed to be regulars as the owner will converse with the customers while preparing the yakiniku.
We ate this. But after trying it we felt that this is probably used to clean the griddle or something as its not on the menu and its really tough to chew. 
The different parts of meat for yakiniku.


Self grilling in progress.  
The meal is good and as usual le hubs is raving at the price after the meal.

Panasonic steam oven NU-SC100WYPQ "Cutie" Product Review

I wanted to get weeks about it  I purchased this item from Tangs at SGD $399. They are having a promotion of discount SGD $50 if you spend SGD $500. So i top up with a vacuum tumbler and pyrex glass dish. After several months of using, here are my comments on this cutie steam oven. This is purely a steam oven with no microwave function. One of the rare oven with no microwave function.  I am ok with it as i steam fishes regularly and its a perfect addition of appliance. The other alternative is the miele steam oven and it is on offer at the same time for SGD $1600. The oven can be plugged to main power point as it is at 13 amp.  Summary: Here are some of my observations using the steam oven.  Buns Easy peasy for the early morning rush to work, put the char siew bao into the oven. Set it to 10 mins and you can steaming hot bun to eat for breakfast. Fish I steam fish majority of the time. It is super easy to use for steaming fish Vegetables Tr...

Kose Beauty Centre Facial Review (Isetan Scotts)

I was very very taken aback when i entered the unassuming beauty salon right in the heart of orchard. While the place is clean and design is simple, it was very sparsely furnished considering its brand name and in comparision with Yamano (the other japanese salon i went).  I entered the facial premises after i passed through the hair salon. What greeted me makes my jaw dropped even more, the room is bare. There is no wall partitions for privacy, in its place are curtains hung to separate the different beds. And i am able to see all the facial therapist and guests. Each therapist handles 2 guests both at the same time!!! From My session suppose to start at 3 pm since my therapist is also handling another customer, i whipped out my phone and start playing candy crush till my therapist is available at 3.30pm. The therapist started by cleaning my face and recommending the appropriate therapy for my skin. I was advised to do the  Whitening & Anti-ageing Treatment an...

Banquet -Parkroyal beach road (Wedding dinner review)

I attended a wedding in October 2013 at the Parkroyal beach road. Boy! I was in for a surprise. The hotel is newly renovated and refurbished to a very corporate and clean polished look. There is a huge area for reception. Even the exterior area is also revamped (i didn't manage to get pictures for outdoors). You can hold your ROM outdoors and have decorated to an outdoor garden setting. Yes the outdoor area is that huge! This place has changed so dramatically.  By comparison, a banquet held at the same location in 2010, see review here . There is alot more room since the wedding i attended is no longer at the other ballroom. The ceilings of the ballroom are tall, creating an illusion of space and comfort.See the ballroom with the backdrop. The photo below is where the bride and the groom walks down the aisle from the back. You are guaranteed a long long walk down the aisle. Romantic backdrop for the stage in romantic flowers display. Interestingly the cham...
