Food Review: Kaisen Tei by MOF Group

Kasien Tei is a friendly and casual dining concept that allows the guests to personalise their donburi with freshly cubed sashimi, salmon, seafood and vegetables on top of soft fluffy rice. This Japanese DIY approach presents a complete Rice bowl - perfect as a healthy takeaway meal for diners on the go.
The friendly team will be glad to suggest any of the authentic Japanese Chicken/pork Katsu Curry rice, donburi and the signature Kasiendon tochoose from. If you prefer a simple seafood DIY donburi, ENJOY!

It's located at 313 Somerset, that's convenience for everyone.

Kaisendon - $16++

The signature dish at Kaisen-Tei. Whats' inside? 4 fish in signature Kaisendon and kaisensalad:
MekajikI (swordfish), Mini hotate (scallop), Maguro (tuna), Salmon, tamago, ginger, cucumber, spring onion, seaweed, ended up with Kaisen sauce.

The seafood was really fresh, and overall tasted not bad and it was worth the price.

Kaisen-salad - $16++

DIY Bowl -

Pork Katsu Curry - $16.90++

Kurobuta pork is used in the pork Katsu curry. The katsu was light and crispy. The flavour wasn't that strong and the meat was pretty firm. Curry wasn't that spicy and it was at the right flavours for everyone to enjoy it.

My Verdict:
Kaisen Tei is more on takeaway concept. If you are happen to work in town why not give this a try. I would recommend their Kaisen-don and DIY.

Stay tune! They will be opening 2 more outlet at GSH Plaza (Early April), and United Square (Early May). So don't miss it!

The real look of the collagen before it turn to our hotpot soup.

What we order? We had their Chicken Collagen Soup and Garlic Spicy Pork Collagen Soup.

Time to feast! Had a taste of the both soup before you start to throw in other ingredients.

The chicken collagen broth tastes much more rich, aromatic and smooth. While the garlic spicy chicken broth tasted slightly salty but it's the good broth good dip your meat.

Fine Dining Review: Caffe B @MBS

Caffé B is a Nouveau Japanese Italian restaurant and bar that celebrates the union of Italian and Japanese Cuisine.

Here, you will get to savour contemporary and premium quality Italian cuisine, infused with Japanese finesse. Your gastronomic dining experience is complete with our curated accompaniment of fine Italian and unique Japanese wines.

Went to caffe B and try out their christmas menu and new bar bite set menu with angie.

I will start from Christmas Menu Set.

Zuppa -
Chef's fresh pot of the day. The soup will be different everyday so depend on your luck see what you get. On that day, they were serving mixed vegetables soup. It consist of pumkin and other assorted vegetables. The soup was creamy, healthy, and fragrance.

Duck Liver Terrine Crocrante -
Served with an assortment of charbroiled yellow watermelon, kumquat compote, fig, choya jelly, green apple chutney, black berry, pea tendril and crispy forcaccia. Interesting combination, such an refreshing dish to start off with my dinner.

Risotto - Sakura Denbu Risotto -
Delightful risotto infused with proseco wrapped in seaweed , Served with sauteed onion and a garnish of sakura mirin and bonito flakes. Nice combination, the texuture was moist and creamy.

Poached Lemon Sole and Truffle cream -
Garnished with deep fried julienne of yellow, green zucchini and carrot, white truffle cream foam and sliced black truffle. Served with a side of yellow chanterelle, edamame, champagne mini pear and mazano pearl tomato. The truffle wasn't too overwhelming and the fish was well cooked still soft and moist.

Duo of Lamb Loin -
Sumptuous pair of loin, one roasted skewer prepared in Marinated herbs and mustard. Accompanied by a cut of lightly seasoned loin topped with fried sesame. Garnished with layerd tomato with ticotta, parmesan and basil with a sprig of thyme. The lamb loin was meaty, tender but i think the fats was too much and it was lacking of seasoning or taste.

White Forest Verrine Style -
White chocolate mousse with sour cherry compote, mascarpone con matcha chantilly. Garnished with a touch of matcha soil with a complimenting aroma of raspberry. Interesting dessert and well match with christmas theme. Ladies definitely will love it.

Bar Bites Set -

Smoked Salmon and Tomato Salsa -
Delicious filling of marinated salmon and light spicy tomato salsa, served in a homemade yellow corn meal shell. Drizzled with dill mayonnaise. A tad too salty to me.

Roasted Young Tom Turkey Breast and Roasted Striploin of Beef -
Served with brussel sprouts, caramelised pineapple rings, parmesan grilled tomato, chateau potatoes, buttered chestnuts and baby young corn. Accompanied with cranberry and veal jus. I would recommend this dish to go with a glass of wine.

Vanilla Gelato Casatta -
Hazelnut sponge filled with a layer of vanilla gelato, covered with infused brandy and topped with Italian meringue. Served with ponatone, wild berries and raspberry coulis. My favourite dish among all. I highly recommend everyone to give this dessert a try.

Christmas Menu Set: $148++ per pax

Bar Bites Set: $68++ for 2 pax

Food: 2/5
Ambiance: 4/5
Service: 0/5

My Verdict:
The food was decent but I feel it was normal. No special ingredients was use and also I can't really see the effort in it. The service was the worst, the service wasn't well match with the standard.
