Fine Modern Japanesque

I'm seriously zonked from the past few days. Undeniably, it's been fruitful, and eventful and expect at least 2 entries the coming week. I completed a second assignment with Nuffnang this week, the first was completed couple of weeks ago. You can read it HERE. I kinda enjoyed myself more for this second one, minus the fact that it stretched until 5am the next day. I'll blog about it in a couple of days..

Here's a belated entry, for Father's Day.

Father's day was celebrated at Dozo. Thanks to the management for acceding to my request of a private room. ;) I've been to Dozo once before and it was a pleasant experience so i've been spreading the word since. The excellent service, the quality and presentation of each course is really worth the time and money spent. Still, it was a first time for the rest of my family so i'm glad they enjoyed the food.

We had our lunch there, which comprised of a six courses. Along with the courses came laughter and conversations. I guess the ambiance and privacy really made everyone relaxed and happy. Thanks to Eric for being a such a good host too!
Food photos are taken by John. Here are our takes on each course. (=
