HK Kim Gary Restaurant (VivoCity)
Came here to celebrate my birthday with my fren (KS, thanks for the treat :P ). We ordered one Hot n spicy noodiles with pork chop in tyhpoon shelther style and one cheese bacon baked potato.
I like the noodles, it was quite delicious. However, I was expecting the noodles to be quite spicy but turned out that it was not..(or may be a little bit spicy to those that cannot eat chili). The soup was full of garlic and was quite tasty.
My fren dun like his baked potato.. he said is too "potato" as the cheese and bacon is too little and a bit tasteless. He rather pay the same amount of money to order the baked mushrooms with cheese.
The service was quite fast and the staff were quite friendly too.But i think overall the food is not bad (given that the food was not very expensive), just dun order the food that is baked kind.
FYI, this hk cafe charged 30 cents for ice water.

My last 2 trips there this year was kinda disappointing as well. First time, somewhere near CNY, a lot of seafood was sold out, even the beer! Thought cos we were there late, so the next time we decided to get there earlier, and this time, the crab where sold out!
Service was also very slow and not enuff people to serve the customers.
Food wise, I think price is still ok, but I think the food is not longer as good as when it was less well known.... planning to try senibong next round...

This is located opposite the Yishun sports hall.... at the cross junction there... if you take mrt, during the durian seasons, u might notice people waiting there... is been 2 years since I been there, not sure if it is still around.

Have not been to Jogoya before, but I've been to the Gonbei opposite. Priced similarly to Jogoya if not wrong, and I thought the service and food was pretty good.

I went with 7 adults and 1 kid, we spent less than $120. I would safely hazard a guess of $18 - $25 per person, depending on how hungry you get. Real value for money for quality food.

Is diagonally opposite Jogoya. Supposedly the quality is better than Jogoya. Price wise, if we convert currency, then Malaysia is cheaper. If we do not convert currency, then Singapore is cheaper. Generally, a japanese buffet in Siingapore is around SGD30+ range.

I didnt know about this place, look like quality Japanese food with reasonable price, must pay a visit someday....BTW, would like to have your opinion, generally Japanese buffet is cheaper in Singapore, or in Malaysia?
