In love with Uni Rice Crackers

Found this mega yummy rice crackers from the Japanese supermarket here. Uni (Sea Urchin) flavored rice crackers ~

Love............. found .. also in the same supermarket .. black pork slices for hotpot at only 6 bux ! try to get it at the same prices in Singapore.

Singapore - Tokyo - 6 hours. New York - Tokyo - 12 hours. Yet things are cheaper here. Baffling !

Sunset @ St John the Divine

Life pasts all of us by, whether we know it or not. 

Sometimes you just got to look around and look up. 

I will definitely be visiting this church again. Just loved the little park and gorgeous fountain next to it. Students from the Junior High decorated the fountain with their own little statues and message of peace. It was a good moment. 

Then headed to a Columbia in-house production. The direction was excellent. :) 

A Trip Down to Newmuseum

Thanks to a Google Offer, i headed down to visit New Museum to see its latest exhibit The Ungovernables.






The theme of this museum is to showcase the new art from upcoming artists, but it wasn't really my thing. One of the many things that i love about New York is about opening up my mind to all these new experiences. :)

There was an excellent roof top view from the museum.

A Kaiseiki Dinner in New York

At Sugiyama exactly. Known as of one of the those understated restaurants in New York, i decided to go there for dinner when one of my favourite yakitori diners were full with a 30 minute wait.

I ordered the 6 course dinner.

Monkfish liver with tofu - smooth and delicious

Sashimi platter - with oyster, king salmon, blue fin tuna and other goodies.

Radish, Baby Eel that tasted smooth like noodles, Silky smooth tofu skin with lobster(Good !), Organic Mushroom

My chef who was slogging along.

Yummy grilled black cod with pickles & rice.

Yummiest grape jelly.

It was a good meal with a fair price but it just made me all the more curious on what else they can do on the 10 course kaiseiki meal.

Till next time ! to Japan i will go :)
