    Just been to this Japanese eating place at Illuma. This was an eating outlet which consisted of several small Japanese shops housed under one roof. On the outlook, it looks pretty much the same as most other Japanese eating places. But the most fascinating in this place was not the food (thou it was nice), but rather the way one orders their food.

    Each table comes with an electronic pen, which is a scanner to scan the food codes on the electronic menu. This saves much time as the waiters need only serve the food and clear the table accordingly. As I went with a group of friends, we managed to taste a variety of food. These includes the hotpan rice set, which consists of a hotpan of beansprouts, beef and salmon, coupled with miso soup and white rice. We also tasted their Maki and curry rice, as well as pork ramen and bento sets. The food was generally tasty and portions were about right. We also tasted their desserts, which were some slices of cakes. They were not sweet , but were quite average in terms of taste and looks.

    Nonetheless, the pricing was fair and it is indeed a great place for groups of friends to gather for a nice meal. However, the place can be slightly small and thus it would be wise to get there early or make a booking should you have a big group going there. So do try it out and see for yourself!

      Fully decorated to look like a Japanese Food Amusement street, it did attract me. The first waitress gave us a table with chairs that had low backing. She didn't hear us calling out, fortunately, another who was nearby heard us and gave us another table as requested.

      The menu is designed in a different way, we were given some instructions on how to order using a handheld scanner that would detect the item that we had picked and selected the quantity. All the waiters and waitresses had to do were to serve the food and clear the empty plates. Only one menu required ordering via the waitresses and waiters.

      The food arrived within 15 minutes, an acceptable time. The udon tasted good while the mushroom and soup were too salty. It would have been better with less salty or seasoning.

      As time was a constraint, we didn't order any desserts that looked tempting. The experience was rather good. The tables would be a tight squeeze for a group of four people.
