Furusato Japanese Restaurant ふる里

 今天来到这里绝对是个偶然，原本我就没打算吃日本餐来庆祝妈妈生日，想安排去 Thistle Hotel - Glass Restaurant 享用晚餐。打了个电话，想问有没有 ala-carte dinner， 然后预定位子，可是却遇到服务态度差的客服人员，就决定更换地点了。

深思了很久，还是坚持要换一换常去的地点，每次都去同一家，难道不会闷吗？网上搜索了很久，觉得这家 Furusato 应该很不错，也听朋友提起过。好吧！决定了。。就这一家啦！

La Gourmet 乜都撈

最近我爱上了在网上买特价固本，如果懂的慢慢去找，努力去找，就一定能买得到物超所值的优惠。这次我也是寻寻觅觅了好久，才被我搜出来的。可以说是无比的超值，因为平时一碟主菜就要大概RM10.00了。这固本才卖RM13.90 （如果没记错的话），就包含了蘑菇汤，主菜和店里小有名气的甜品！我兴致勃勃的就买了三张，其实我还嫌买少了，有点后悔。。很贪心哦！

蘑菇汤是没的选啦，可是也没什么好拍的，因为没什么特别，马马虎虎而已，足够暖暖胃，待会儿好"大开杀戒" 。

Shik Gaek Korean Restaurant 食客韩国烧烤

韩国餐说真的我也吃了不少，新山东边吃一吃，西边吃一吃，南端试一回，北端试一回，吃来吃去，口味都大同小异，就是酸酸辣辣的泡菜和吃了火气直升云端的热气，再不就是人参鸡汤，炒年糕，煎饼啦。。。真的有点吃到怕。都是我妈惹的。。。现在的欧巴桑也随着潮流，哈韩起来了！就连在家里，随时都会出现泡菜炒鸡肉豆腐。。。恐怖啊 ！所以说我吃不腻是骗人的，人人看了会垂涎三尺，我却远离三尺。

Pelangi 大丰擂茶

这间店如果我没错的话，以前是开在大丰，ShowHouse对面的角头间店屋。不知道那里现在是否还有吗，还是搬到这新地点了。太久没在新山市混了，都整天待在Mount Austin一带。可能下次可以去大丰那里兜一圈看它是否依然存在。

Sweetwater Mediterranean Cuisine

"You went Deep Water for your birthday celebration just now ?" That got me pondering for a moment, "Where exactly is this new joint in Johor Bahru ?". The answer I've gotten was "Jalan Serempang, along the same row of shophouses as Gianni's". Ohhhhh ... and I was told they share the same boss. Interesting and that really got me excited, can it mean they are serving something with mediterranean flavours, that's the 1st idea that came to my mind when I heard of the word "Deep Water". Afterall, I've never had a chance to try but lust at some of those mediterranean cuisines I've grown accustomed to watching on Food Channel. Then came the knock from my friend ... "Hello, it's Sweet Water, not Deep Water".

Food République ... with improvements

I remember blogging about them on my last trip here, and the review wasn't good coming from me, mainly due to the unforgivingly long waiting time for our food to be served. This time round, I am much more impressed by their eagerness to serve up the meal.

八起居酒屋

An authentic place to have a decent Japanese meal in Johor Bahru. They have a rather extensive menu and quite a selection of sakes as well. I can see they have quite a following of Japanese expats, most probably a place where they can feel right at home after a long day at work or after a golf session.

Food République

To make things simpler for the readers of my blog and myself, I've decided to cut short on the lengthy and nitty gritty details of my foodie outing each time and go straight to the point for now & in the future. Introduction of the dish, coupled with overall ratings for the food. I'm contemplating to actually provide a rating for every dish. Maybe I should try to implement it starting from this issue. Hey, you have to start somewhere somehow, isn't it ?

Interior of the place. Looks decent and nicely done up with a simple and no frills setup. Rating: 7/10

Dinner @ Gianni's Trattoria Restaurant & Cafe

Today is the 1st day of the lunar new year. Due to the special occasion and to some extent, repeated servings of the same dishes for our past 2 meals, my Dad suggested going to Gianni for dinner tonight. I made a reservation for 5 in the afternoon, just to be safe. Was glad we made the reservation, as it was fully booked on both floors. I know it sounds weird to have Italian cuisine on the first day of Chinese New Year, but well our family is kinda different from the norm :P
