Crayfish Party 2015 @ Ikea Restaurant

Staying nearby IKEA make me can't miss any food promotion form Ikea Restaurant.
I had mark my calendar on 14/08/2015, Friday to attend the Crayfish Party or I would say is another buffet offer by Ikea Restaurant. Since I did not purchase the ticket in advance, I actually quite worry if they are sold out but since I had learn from my previous experience on the Mid Summer Buffet, therefore I choose the first session which start at 5:30pm till 7:30pm instead the second session start at 8pm.

Sticker for the buffet entrance 

I reach around 5:30pm and it had started, so without delay I went to purchase the ticket at RM35.00 per pax and we are also given RM10.00 cash voucher to shopping at Ikea. Out of curiosity I went to the serving place and look for Crayfish. Wow, is really prawn with big craw. Wondering how to eat, after taking a full plate of food then I walk slowly to get a sit while looking at how other customer enjoying the crayfish.

Fresh Water CrayFish

'I look so fresh or so life?!'

well, since is my first time to have this and I really don't have any expectation towards this big hard shell prawn. The only part that eatable is the body, the head and shell are all discard so only left a small chunk of meat. Feel wasted right? I really wanted to try to tear open the craw but is useless and somehow I feel is empty. Besides, crayfish, there are also other side dish such as below;

Crayfish Party Menu

Crayfish

• Green salad, Cucumber salad, Hardboiled eggs with mayo and shrimp
• Shell on prawns

Breads

• Ikea Crispbread & Crisprolls
• Thin bread

Warm Dish

• Meatballs, Mashed Potatoes and Lingonberries 

Dessert

• Assorted cake and cookies
• Almond cake

Beverages

• Soft drink
• Hot Beverage (coffee/tea)

The variety is not much but the main is the 'Shell on Prawns' - crayfish which I still think is a catch.

The crayfish is fresh and tasty either you may eat straight or dip in any sauce is perfect. I had mine dip in the mustard sauce with lingonberries, yum yum~

Hello~

Looking at the crayfish head did remind me of the 'Sebastian' from the Little Mermaid story. It make me think are you mini lobster? or maybe the 'Sebastian' is a crayfish instead of lobster? Hahaha~ I am sorry as I know is very rude to play with the food but... only this one, k?

Overall, I did enjoy dinning in Ikea restaurant and besides the crayfish, my all time favorite is the Meatball and Almond cake, which is they signature and almost all the table having this 2 dishes without failed. I just hope they could remain the same price for next year so I can try again such a rare 'fish'~ cheers!!!

  

 

Midsummer Buffet @ Ikea Restaurant

I forget to post about a buffet that I had last month...
If you are an Ikea Family member, I think you had already known or even went to Midsummer Buffet on 9th June 2015. Let start by how I getting know about this buffet, from email of course.
This is what I received.

Tempting right? Who can resist???

So out of curiosity, I went to Ikea and bought the ticket for 2 pax (me & my hubby of course). I bought the ticket as earlier on 28 May, so I can get the early-bird price at RM30.00/pax with the cash voucher of RM20.00/ticket. Is so worth right?!

RM30 for buffet with RM20 voucher

After a long wait and thinking how would it like and don't know what to expect so I am excited on the actual day.We had choose the second session which is from 8pm till 10pm. We reach there as early as 7:45pm and there already a super long queue. Wow... it really scary. I am so hungry and had to wait in the long queue and saw people taking a few place and from what can I see is the buffet place is so small and people in the queue are not moving.

After half an hour queuing, finally I reach the place where we had the plate, after taking 2 plate of each of us. Patiently queuing to get the food. May be due to I am too hungry, I am trying to fill everything in my plate and actually starting eating some biscuit while in the queue.

Hungry fest after queuing for half an hour

I believe there are no need to comment of the food, as expected from Ikea Restaurant. The food is yummy and very filling. To my surprise, I am full after finish my plate and looking at the salmon ball I feel so guilty if I end up never finish it. The variety of the food is not much choices but we did enjoy the food. 

If you ask me which would be my favorite, of course the meatball and salmon ball. I hope they will have another buffet like this again. 

Ps; I received an email that Ikea Restaurant is having the Ramadan Buffet as well. ^ ^  

OISO @ IPC, Mutiara Damansara

Which would you prefer, Korean or Japanese food?
If you would ask me, I would choose Japanese food even though they are quite similar but in term of taste is totally different. Korean food is always colorful and not to mentions they presentation is always look better than any other food. Recently, I had come across one Korean restaurant in IPC, although they had been there for quite a while, it was my first time trying too;

Steam Chicken with Soysauce - RM18.90

As expected, such a colourful dish which make one more tempting to taste it. I had this steam chicken with soy sauce however, you may see it didn't look like soy sauce but trust me, it taste wonderful. The chicken is so tender and is not as salty if you have it which the rice. Besides, the beautiful food presentation, serving the chicken in the pan to maintain the heat which make everything perfect. 

Yuk Gae Jang - RM16.90

Yuk Gae Jang or Spicy Beef Soup is a very common dish for Korean. The pipping hot soup really make your stomach tumbling and without a second thought we already taken a sip of the soup. Well, it did not taste as spicy as it seem, may be that because my husband ask them to make it less or lesser spicy. 

Honey Jujube Tea - RM5.90

Honey Jujube Tea or I would name it as red dates with honey drink taste quite refreshing and sweet. What I like more about this drink is the tea pot look cute and given me an authentic feeling. The small clay tea cup had make it more presentable especially on top of the wooden table.

Side Dish 

All the set is serve with 3 side dishes and 1 soup. As seen, they serve cabbage kimchi, apple salad and anchovies. I am not sure if the side dishes is refillable since I am full after the main course. Among the 3 side dishes, I would prefer the apple salad because the sweet and slightly sour taste really make for my appetite. As for the kimchi, just so so because I feel that they didn't marinate long enough where the favor is too mild and for the anchovies, which is not my fancy when I saw it had not been clean the inner body.

I prefer cold drink than hot drink, therefore I had order cold organic brown tea - RM1.90 for myself. The total bill come to RM 50.85 which included 10% service charge and 6 % GST. The Oiso Restaurant is located at LG 18 & 20, Ground Floor, IPC Shopping Center at Mutiara Damasara. Actually, they are located at the same row as Ramen Ten, so is quite easy to notice. I just notice when I am leaving the restaurant, they do sell some of the Korean snack and ice cream. Interesting~
