Day 22

Sakae - Japanese Restaurant in Eastwood

Whenever I'm in Eastwood around lunch time, I always have a hard time deciding on what to eat... Oh the dilemmas of having choice.

After walking aimlessly for a while, X and I decided on eating lunch at Sakae. 

There are a few outdoor seats at Sakae, but we chose to sit inside.



The inside is very small and very narrow, but considering that it wasnt very busy today, I didnt mind. We were quickly showed to our table and given menus. 

I think the lunch time menu is more value for many than dinner time. The food choices are pretty much the same, except the bento boxes are way more expensive at night and seem to be smaller. 

X ordered a sushi bento box and I ordered teriyaki fish. 

Woah~the amount of rice that was in my container was enough for two meals of mine. (I'm not much of a rice person)

The sushi bento looks pretty good and pretty similar to the picture on the menu haha






My teriyaki was a bit salty in my opinion, nice but i had to drink a lot of water. But overall it was a decent lunch :)

Day 21 Pine Inn Hotel

Who likes cheap eats? UNI STUDENTS DO~!

Because I was at X's place, and he was felt like eating cheap steak, we decided to go to Pine Inn "Hotel" for lunch.


This place is either hella busy or dead quiet. Either times, the food always comes out fast and hot. Today it was quiet. Probably only 3-4 tables around us were occupied.

On the $10 menu there is:

Steak (t-bone or rump) 

Chicken Fillet 

Fish

German Kranskey Sausage

Pork Chops

Lamb Chops

Spaghetti Bolognaise

and Calamari. 
All are served with chips and salad.

We always get the steaks. But one day I think i'll try their fish and chips. See if its any good. I ordered a rump steak medium rare with mushroom sauce. After ordering we collected our cutlery and chose a table. Within 10-15 minutes our buzzer started to vibrate, alerting us that our steaks were DONE~



There is never a shortage of sauce on my chips and salad. I love thick cut chips~ makes me feel a little healthier eating it with my salad. However there is always something to be said about the way my steak is cooked, like too cooked, unevenly cooked, too rare etc, but because its only $10 and it aint no kind of fine dining, WHATEVS~


We both couldnt finish our steaks and both felt like PIG after. Couldnt move. We sat there for a while longer talking the cars in the carpark. (X has a ODD when it comes to cars T_T)


Overall was a nice afternoon =)
