Special thanks to Katherine for the invite!
En Dining is bringing authentic okinawan cuisine to the heartlands with their new outlet at Alocassia Apartments. Free flow Queen Crab and Seafood Hot Pot in this $68++ Premium Buffet available everyday.
Dining options available include tables like these.
Bar counter seats for a more intimate experience.
Private dining rooms are also open for reservation.
They have an extensive range of sake to go with the dishes.
This is the showcase of their Premium Buffet - shabu shabu! We had a platter of vegetables first.
Beef Shabu Shabu
Marbled slices of heaven, each was melt in the mouth delicious in the dipping sauce.
I can eat this every day.
Pork Shabu Shabu
As gratifying as the beef, I find it difficult to pick a favourite.
I have not eaten King Crab legs, here comes Queen Crab. The flesh is incredibly sweet and can be eaten two ways - cold as served or dipped in the hotpot. Either way, having the whole crab meat chunk falling out of the shell and sucking it up is quite an experience.
Sashimi Platter
Salmon, Yellow Tail, Tuna, Red Snapper, Swordfish
This buffet sports a wider variety of raw fish as compared to the other Japanese buffet restaurants attempted which is a welcome addition for frequent buffet diners like myself. I found the selection adequate and fresh.
Temaki selection
Salad with raw fish, fish roe and greens makes good of the raw food in the dish.
California Roll
Lightly Grilled Salmon with Miso Sauce Roll
On top of the usual favourites like california roll and handrolls, there is a selection of creative sushi that includes salmon with miso sauce as well as aburi wagyu beef sushi.
Beef Carpaccio
Sliced so fine, these flavourful slices are definitely worth seconds.
Salmon Wafu Carpaccio
Another must try includes this salmon carpaccio with a dressing so addictive, I am on the fence if the beef or salmon is a better option.
Riding on the high of the beef carpaccio, we had the teppanyaki beef too. Grilled tender cubes that were bursting with juice.
Yakitori platter that showcases their grill, special mention goes to the grilled chicken balls and grilled pork with miso.
Crisp ebi tempura that is a must try at any Japanese buffet.
Remarkably light and delicious!
Grilled Scallops
This stir fry would be better if served piping hot, I still adored the bouncy chewy texture of this.
Grilled Squid
This is a must order - tasty black sauce grilled squid! Tender bites make this a perfect accompaniment with sake.
This fry up was more oriental than Japanese in my opinion, goes well with rice.
One major plus point at this buffet is, desserts are also included.
However, do not rely on the pictures on the menu because they turned out otherwise. Thankfully the panna cotta was smooth, sweet and very delectable.
Black sesame pudding had a gritty texture and is a jell-o version of the black sesame paste.
Green tea panna cotta and azuki beans is the universal favourite at any Japanese meal - this did not disappoint either.
We had a swell time pairing the food with sake, a lighter and fruitier alternative to beer.
In addition to the buffet, there is an ala carte menu as well as omakase sets (starting from $70).
