Kansai Japanese Restaurant of NZX，
牛车水，关西日式料理店

首先呢... 不好意思啊各位，太久没更新了，最近我回到家好像看漫画看得有些上瘾了，一不小心就荒废忽略了 Facebook MSN AO 等，甚至是自己的部落格都不管了哈哈 XD 其实我注意这间店子蛮久了的，还一直不断地告诉自己总有一天要进去试吃他们的日式料理看看味道如何，现在我终于都做到了 XD
为您介绍位于牛车水的关西日式料理店... 就店面来看搭上红色鸟居的大门及类和式拉门是蛮吸引人的，唯一美中不足的应该就只是当日特餐展示台上那张写着错别字的小纸卡了，茶碗蒸应该是 chawan mushi 才对哦
First of all... sorry for the late update XD A bit addicted to manga recently haha thus ignored Facebook MSN AO & even blog~ Well... been quite some time since I noticed and kept telling myself that one day I'll be there to try the Japanese foods in this restaurant, and well I finally made it XD
Introducing Kansai Japanese Restaurant of NZX... Indeed the red color torii and the Japanese style sliding door would surely be the main attraction, the one and only flaw should be the wrong spelling on the paper card meant for the chawan mushi on the "Today's Special"'s display stand
Had difficulties shooting the light box,reason being... my height and the tree branches
要拍这个灯箱有些难耶，
全都是自己身高和那些树丫的错

They placed a red color torii at the outside,kindly slide the left panel to enter the genkan
安放在门外的红色鸟居，只要轻拉
左边的门板就可以进入玄关了

Today's special... well should be chawan and not chwan当天的特制套餐... 其实该是 chawan 而非 chwan
话说，当我一进入餐厅时我真的不是很确定自己该用什么语言来跟侍者们交谈，毕竟在牛车水一区真的是见过了太多看起来很像华裔但原来是邻国友族的工作人员... 中文？粤语？日语？英语？简单，还是以英语通杀好了
选好位置后就是时候该点菜了，感觉上自己是比较想要吃套餐又或是盖饭一类的，手卷和拉面等就留给下一次的到访吧，不过好像他们的套餐优惠好像蛮不错的... 惨了，到底该吃些什么呢 @.@ 果真是印证了选择太多也会让人觉得很头疼这一个道理
号外： 单是点菜就花了我将近十分钟的时间~ XD
Well, actually I wasn't really sure which language I should use to communicate with the waiter/waitress there, due to the fact that there's lots of Chinese-look-alike foreigners working there in NZX... Mandarin? Cantonese? Japanese? Or English? Guess English should be easiest and safest then
Time to place order after settled down and all, somehow for me I prefer to eat something like bento or don, guess I'd keep both temaki and ramen for the next visit, but hey their set promotions seemed not bad too... @.@ Gosh I had such a hard time just to decided what to eat, it's definitely true that at times the more choices you got, the harder it is to make a proper decision
P/S: It took me about 10 minutes before I finally decided what to eat~ XD
They put the set promo's menus on every single table每张桌子上都会放有这么一个特价菜单
The Lunch Promotion午时套餐优惠
The Dinner Promotion晚间套餐优惠
The chopstick wrapper & the tissue paper竹筷纸制封袋与纸巾
A bit hard to shot their menu due to the UV laminatedcover and the lights inside the restaurant
因封面是闪光的再加上店子里灯光的关系，
要拍好这个菜谱真的... 对我而言很难
既然想点的食物都已交待好了，那在等待之际又该做些什么呢？当然正在读着我的稿子的你一定不会搞错我一般上会如何打发这一段时间的 :p 是时候去照些相了 ^^ 就先坐在位置上从附近的摆设拍起吧...
What should I do after the food ordering? Well since you are reading this I am more than sure that you know what I would do as usual :p Photo shooting time again ^^ First I started with snapping the area near me, without moving away from my seat...
The cashier counter and so on, view from my seat从我的座位所见的收银柜等
The paper covered lamps天花板垂吊着的纸罩灯
They put lots of Japanese style dolls and katana there柜子里安放着很多的日本娃娃和武士刀

正好我的座位的正对面就有两间紧闭着的小厢间，想当年还在大学时每逢生日我都会和 Esther, Ryan 老大, Susan 等一起去马六甲 Jaya Jusco 楼上的那间森友日式料理店的包厢里庆生的，真的很怀念很怀念，纯纯的青春一去不复还了...
Happened that there were two tightly-shut rooms right opposite of where I get seated, kind of reminded me the time where we were all still studying in MMU... I celebrated all my birthday there at one of the rooms of Moritomo Japanese Restaurant (located at upstairs of Jaya Jusco Melaka) with Esther, Ryan, Susan, and so... How nostalgic... there would not be a take two for my innocent youth anymore...

And the Miyako's这则是 Miyako 厢房的紧闭之门

坐着坐着... 好像很想走走看看去拍些不同的照片耶... 刚开始我只是打算偷偷放大远处的摆设来拍拍一下的，想不到店主竟然很大方地要我别在意，尽管随便拍好了，还甚至叫我打开厢房的门去看看呢... 真是怪不好意思的 x.x
How should I put this... I felt like want to walk around and snap more photos from different angle and places... Well at first I only simply zoomed and snapped some pictures from afar, and I'd never expected that the owner actually approached me saying it's OK for me to just make myself at home and take whatever picture I need... What's more, he even asked me to open the door to the rooms to have a better view... Was so shy and felt so embarrassed x.x

后来呢，正当我和店主聊着的当儿侍者就来告诉我晚餐已经全都准备好了，也好，是时候开动了，来看看我的便当吧： 有味噌汤、茶碗蒸、红烧鸡、天妇罗、菜类、薯泥、白饭和饭后水果... 唔... 味噌汤蛮香浓的、茶碗蒸若是将之与森友比较起来则输了些、红烧鸡很不赖、菜类和薯泥都很好吃 ^^ 问题是很多!!! 好大份呃!!!
Well the waitress informed me that my dinner was ready and all served as I was chit-chatting with the owner, thus it's time for foods then, introducing my bento of the night... featuring the miso soup, chawan mushi, teriyaki chicken, tenpura, pickled vegetables, mashed potatoes, rice and fruits (as dessert). Basically the soup came with a really rich aroma, as for chawan mushi somehow I think Moritomo's would be relatively better, the teriyaki chicken was good, vegie and potatoes were really enjoyable too ^^ Ehrm... well the only problem was... the portion was way too big x.x

好惨呃... 我好像是花了将近三刻钟才终于慢慢地勉强吃下我那丰富的晚餐 x.x 循例地再走走想要来个第二轮的照相活动；无奈我却因为感觉很累，再加上已有好几天没真正睡好的缘故而没多作久留，只是在寿司台附近拍了几张相片就向店主告辞了
Hmm... guess it took me about 45 minutes or so to try my best to eat my dinner x.x Second round of photo shooting after that, but I didn't stay too long inside the shop too as I was kind of tired and slightly lacked of sleep the days before, thus I only managed to snap a few at the sushi bar corner and bid farewell to the owner before I left the shop

号外： 其实八月二十日（周四）那天我和同事也再次光顾了那里，不过也并没怎样拍照啦，只是快快地吃了一下就离开了，现在就来秀一下我那少少的相片了
P/S: Actually I was there again with my colleague on 20 August (Thursday) too, but well I didn't really take much of the photos too because we didn't stay long but mere dining and left the restaurant right after, hereby attached the limited photos I had
The bigger seat at the far end离我们较远的在该区域最大的座位
