Shillawon @ Suntec City

Another place that has been around for years and we’ve never patronised it before…
Read some positive reviews on the place a few weeks back, so decided to give it a try today

We walked past Kuishin Bo… which was packed with a long queue as usual and headed to Shillawon… place was kinda packed as well, but we were lucky as there was a last empty table for us thankfully

The waitress asked if we would like to have the buffet or not… we told her that it was our first time there… so she explained to us what was in the buffet… Aly turned to look at me… I just said “buffet!”

I was hungry! Anything would do! I just need food FAST

The buffet consisted of cooked food that we could take that was placed inside of the restaurant at the entrance and everything else from the menu. We had to order what we wanted ala carte style

While flipping through the menu, I noticed that some of the items were stated to be only available on weekends…

Hmmm…. lucky for us it WAS a weekend

Rice cakes from the counter … Aly claimed it was really good …. as compared to the expensive and lousy ones at Dong Dae Mun (Bugis Junction/VivoCity)

It was my first time having rice cakes… so I couldn’t compare or comment

More stuff you could pick yourself … sashimi and tempura

Onion pancake which we ordered … not bad I was surprised that Aly ate this as it contained lots of spring onions

More rice cakes!

Ordered some prawns… one of the things you can only get on weekends …

Some marinated beef …. bulgogi….

Spicy squid and non spicy squid

Marinated chicken wings… only on weekends….

I loved this one best … (Bossam) boiled pork belly for you to wrap with lettuce and pickled vegetables/kimchi, cut green chilli, garlic and hot bean sauce. This dish is so simple… yet so lovely… especially with the garlic … the tastes just explodes in your mouth! (Think a whole lot of wasabi exploding in your mouth )

Blogging about it now is making me have cravings for it
You can get additional lettuce from the counter inside the restaurant.

Aly ordered seafood soup…. brave… I’m just trying to stay away from these seafood stuff after that fiasco with Mario Kitchen

Now this is what I’m talking about … BBQ!

Food’s just about done… Makan time!

I was afraid to order this at first ‘cos had already waved the white flag….
But I wanted to try this…. thankfully after seeing Aly’s soup, I saw that the portion wasn’t too big… Good 1 person I suppose…. This is spicy soup with kimchi, pork belly and tofu

No regrets about ordering this … lovely soup… pork belly slices were not as big and thick like those that were served with the lettuce…. I had some leftover from that plate and threw them in the soup…. shiok

By the time I was done… erm…. Only kitty was left!
Everybody else had finished their meals… even those who came after us
You can imagine how much I ate :”>
