Base on the price on their menu I have high expectation from them. But after eating I felt rather disappointed. Largely due to their slow service.
Oh my! this gonna be one harsh food critic.
Unlike the usual buffet where you pick your plate and play Food Jenga. Here everything is made to order. The server will take down your order then have it delivered to the kitchen.

However there is something strange with the ordered food.  Gonna call in the ghostbusters.
The quantity of food served doesn't quite match the order we made.  Lets say we ordered 6 pieces of Gyoza, it will come out with a different number. Strange? perhaps Slimer ate the food?

Anyway I recommend getting their Pawns, sirloin, fried soft shell crab and gyoza.

Overall I like the food.
But I have a few confession to make. Oh.. here comes the "but"

Fake wasabi Is so fake that it doesn't even tickle my sinus. Hey! What is shashimi without a good spicy wasabi?  I know is difficult to get real wasabi here.. at lest keep it spicy.
No sauce for Goyza?

Last thing but not least, the desserts.
If you like green tea ice cream, this will not be the one you'll be anticipating .
It doesnt even taste like green tea to me..
It tasted much like coconut ice cream than green tea.
Look! it's pale green in colour

Soup Restaurant (三盅两 件) at IMM
