Gathering at Watami Singapore

J and I met up with Flo on Tuesday evening after work.  It has been some months since I last seen her.  We decide to meet at Watami @ Raffles City Basement.  It's the first time J and I tried the Japanese food there.

The ambience was great and we noted that there were long queues outside the restaurant after 7pm onwards.  In fact all the eating places in Raffles City Basement have long queues - probably due to the large crowd of Christmas shoppers.

Watami @ Raffles City Basement

Unagi with Seawood & Chives

A mini 'rice-cooker' - I have to wait 20 mins for my rice to be cook.

Pan-fried Scallops - to share

3 types of Sushi - to share (Salmon, Scallop & Prawn)

J ordered Sliced Pork Soba Soup

Rice is still boiling.

Rice is cooked - added the seaweed and chives
For dessert we decided to order the Brownies and Ice Cream to share.  It's very nice but the ice cream melted far too quickly.

It was a nice evening, catching up with each other.  Our dinner was marred by a young waitress who suddenly asked if we are 'ready to leave or continue to drink our tea' !   We were shocked by her statement.  Flo, who has been to the restaurant a couple of times before, was shocked by the waitress's question.  She said this is the first time she heard something like this from the staff!

Other than this minor incident, the evening ended quite well.  We had enjoyed our interesting meal.

Watami has a couple of branches.  The one we went to is located at:
