Nippon - Tei

Since my uncle and aunt were in Bangkok for a short visit, our very generous 'bagkok-aunty' brought us to this fabulous Japanese place. I LOVE Japanese food. i don't remember when did i learn to eat raw fish, but i just LOVE it sooo much. i remember when i first tried japanese food, i didn't dare to touch anything raw, but now, i just want everything raw!!!.. :)
This FAB Japanese place is located at the basement of a Japanese company. I don't recall the name of the company but if u take the BTS to Rachatewi station (one of the exits), the building is right beside the exit.
This place is quite costly for ppl like me!.. but quality wise, i won't mind spending the money for real food like this!... I heard there's a branch in Paragon but it's fusion. This one here.. is authentic!..:)
Jap Tofu
This is really good.. one of the best i've ever eaten so far.. I have no idea what they put inside... but i know there's something crispy inside that made the whole thing so delicious!!.. two thumbs up for this!!
I don't know if they really have this in Japan, but the idea of "Yam" raw rish just reminds me to Thailand...
ok.. i love love this.. esp the butter fish (white in color).. i didn't try the darker skin color fish on the right side of the butter fish, simply becuase it looks a lil scary to me and the flesh is very fatty. My sis tried it and she said i might not like it.. so therefore, didn't try. I think she finish everything coz apparently, my uncle and aunt are not fans of raw fish.. :DNothing much with the main dish, coz it's what u can get in other Japanese restaurant. Taste wise, it's very nice and very Japanesy. :)
Dessert
I had a 150 baht Green Tea ice cream (LOL! one scoop only!!.. WT?!)
It was different from the other green tea ice-cream that i've tried before. i'm not sure if its worth 150 baht..haha.. but all i can say is.. this green tea ice-cream is very pure. The green tea is very strong and u can hardly taste the dairy in it. Compared to what i've tasted before, those were very milky. so there goes the 150 baht for the pureness of it!.. :D
TtoekI blogged about this in one of my korea trip entry. Suprisingly, they have it here as well.. :) but yes, it does taste a lil different. Instead of steaming it, this one they sort of grilled it a lil on the outside to give a crispy texture to the Ttoek.
uncle elvin and aunty patchara loving the food!!.. :)
and of course, i love it too.. =)
