5 food items coming up! :)
Salmon kaminabe, the soup was the non-MSG kind i think. it tasted pretty bland at first but as the soup boiled on, it tasted better so i think it was the ingredients that flavored the soup :) salmon was fresh and thus didn't have the awful fishy smell which i detest. this was $13.80, and enough for two to share :)
Agedashi tofu, me likey :) this was pretty decent, though i've had better (but forgot from where.. Sakae/Ajisen?) as they come, this was about $5.90 i think. not very cheap but normal priced i guess.
softshell crab!! :) super love this, and they gave about 3 crabs for $9.90! we were deciding between the salad and just the crab itself and ended up having this.. no regrets. it wasn't too oily and the crab tasted fresh. batter was nice and fried to perfection imo!
grilled salmon sushi. this was something new that i haven't seen before! spotted by Nick on the menu, and he clamored to try it so i agreed hehe. it didn't really taste grilled but a little bit sweet when the top part was placed on my tongue? we had it pretty long after it was served but it still tasted fresh :) $5.90 for two!
garlic rice, which i saw that was a must-try on reviews. it was okay i guess, and $7.90 for a portion big enough for 2 to share! but then again, we ordered everything with the intention to share so i guess it's enough if you aren't tooooo hungry/have a small appetite.
we spent about $25/pax after taxes. doesn't sound very cheap but for the quality of the food, it's a decent price to pay :)

oh, last food photo. just found out about SBS's canteen and had their chicken laksa which i think was good! but their food prices are steeper as compared to other canteens..
