A return to Kin No Uma

When I said I would return to Kin No Uma I meant it (the discount vouchers certainly helped though). So it was on a fine (but hazy) Saturday evening that the four of us journeyed all the way down to the Palace of the Golden Horses for another smashing dinner. I'll let the pictures tell the story.

I'm loving it

Solitary tower

We dined here!

Sashimi and sushi, always fresh, always good

The oysters did not disappoint

Tempura prawns were as good as ever,
unfortunately there was no squid this time around

Hot grill action!

The result of said hot grill action
Meats were tender but lacking in taste, no marinade at all!

Surprisingly spicy soup with assorted musrooms
A winner!

Miso soup and chawanmushi
No regrets here

Smooth oh yeah!

Assorted appetizers...yeah I know I should have started with these
Pretty good but not exceptional

End the meal with ice cream
(which was abundantly available this time around)

Pretty coarse shaved ice, they should really sharpen the blades

Expresso, double shot
Kept me up all night

This second visit proved that standards can be maintained provided the restaurant works hard at it. There were a couple of misses (namely the overuse of salt in a couple of dishes like the garlic fried rice) and the teppanyaki corner still didn't feature on-demand cooking (which to me doesn't really seem like authentic teppanyaki anymore) but the overall experience was a notch up from our previous visit. Oh, check out Wei Siong's review here!

And since the manager was kind enough to give away more discount coupons...we'll be back!
