Wawa's Ramblings

Had lunch at Rakuzen at Millenia Walk. The restaurant was crowded with office workers during the lunch hour but we managed to get a booth seat which was quite private. Spent sometime deciding what to order as the menu was very appetizing with lots of pretty pictures of the food. We had the sashimi yakizakan zen (sashimi and grilled sanma set) [$22] and the sukiyaki zen ($18). The set lunch also included rice, pickles, miso soup, chawan mushi and a dessert. The sashimi was very fresh and the sanma was nicely grilled. We also enjoyed the tender beef slices which was cooked in a tasty soup stock. A point to note is that the restaurant flies in their seafood fresh on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Even though we were quite stuffed after the meal, we had to end on a sweet note and ordered the macha (green tea) and goma (black sesame) ice cream [$3 per portion].

Overall, a very satisfying meal and we will definitely return to try the other items on the menu. The lunch sets are truly value for money and the same set can cost a few dollars more for dinner. Service was generally polite and efficient and our cups of green tea were never empty.
