瓦(Wa) (Japanese steamboat @ cineleisure)

          Hello guys i am back for another food post! (yay me!) This time i will be doing on the restaurant called 瓦(Wa). So... Some background info first. It is located @ cineleisure orchard road, fourth storey if i am not wrong?  ( in case you have not been there, it will be nearer if you alight at somerset MRT, rather than orchard MRT station.) I am not very sure about the price, but it should be around $15 or $16++ for lunch (Mon-Thurs) and $19++ for dinner. However, there will be extra charges if you want other soup base like Kimchi, Suki Yaki, Miso,( most will choose another soup base cause the normal one taste quite bland :( But you can choose to have the steamboat or just other normal Japanese food. They also do have a 30% charge if there is any wastage of food there and they will emphasize to you. Last, they will have a one hour ordering time for you to order your food.
 

          Okay! Back to the review! Personally i find that the base they gave for free really does not taste very nice, i mean it is quite tasteless. However the Suki Yaki soup base is really nice! Since its like buffet style, we are able to order as much meat as we want, so on the first ordering, we order quite little as we want to see how big is the portion that will be given since we did not want to pay the extra amount for food wastage. However, the meat was really nice after we put them in the soup, so when we ordered the second time( Which is our last order) we order alot of meat( chicken, pork and beef) and still other things like vegetables, meatballs, tofu etc. But there is one thing that i really dislike is that if you opt for one portion of the meatballs or whatever balls or tofu, the only give you ONE PIECE!! I was like, HELLO~! THATS TOO LITTLE!. And for the veg, it is the same! They will only give you a few pathetic pieces! But i can say the place is really empty and we went at around 6+? Which is dinner time for many people, but we are the only customer and when we left, there are like only 3 tables occupied? I dont know is it because we went on a weekday so there are lesser people, or there is a problem with their food or service.
          So, since we are the only customer, they remove our empty plates and refilled our greentea (you need to top up $2 for unlimited refill of greentea) really fast! So after all the cost that are added, we paid like around $25/ person. Which i find quite reasonable for unlimited supply of meat within an hour? But they should really change their menu and tell customers the hidden cost for the extra soup base what not so that people will not end up paying more than what they expect.

Hope my review did help you in some way! See you next time!♥
