Places to Dine at The Star Vista Bouna Vista

 It has been quite awhile since I last visited The Star Vista. I decided to choose this place for meetup with my friends because it is a mid point location and less crowded than other malls. The Star Vista is an unique mall because it is naturally ventilated and aircon is only available in the stores. There are quite a number of restaurants and eateries that will attract us to visit. Here are some restaurants and eateries that I visited.

1. Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant (#02-16)

Watami is a Japanese Causal Restaurant that serves an assorted variety of authentic Japanese cuisine at affordable price. 

We ordered a plate of Salmon Maki for sharing. The delicious salmon coated with mentaiko mayo was sitting on top of the sushi, making the maki tasted flavoursome as a whole.

I had Teriyaki Chicken Don with Egg ($6.90++).

This menu made our eyes light up with their affordable price. The portion may not be enough for big eater, but it was just nice for me.

Happy birthday in advance, Linda.

Hope you like the gift and dinner treat. Thanks for the belated birthday gift too.

2. 5 Senses Bistro (#02-21)

Today's food hunt brought me to 5 Senses Bistro, an Asian and European fusion bistro.

We had Furikake Fries ($8.90++) to go with our meal. The fries were very addictive and well seasoned with Japanese rice seasoning.

I had Carbonara ($9.90++) for my main course. The portion was generous, the spaghettis was tossed with smoked bacon and parmesan cheese, and finished off with poached egg. I broke open the egg yolk and give it a good mix before eating, letting the egg yolk soaked into the spaghettis and enhancing the taste.

3. Geláre (#02-27)

Chanced upon Gelare while walking around the mall and I was attracted by their waffle ice cream, so we decided to stop by here for dessert.

Half Classic Waffles with Cookie and Cream Ice Cream allows you to choose two toppings. I ended up selected mini marshmallow and chocolate bits. With the chocolate sauce drizzled over, it was definitely rich in choco taste. The waffle was very crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.

4. Imakatsu (#01-17)

Imakatsu is a Tonkatsu-specialty Japanese restaurant located at level 1 of The Star Vista. This outlet is the first overseas store that opened outside Japan. Being featured in "Michelin Guide Tokyo 2015", it made me want to give it a try.

We came without reservation and got a seat immediately, we got a glass of green tea while waiting for the food.

I had Premium Pork Loin Cutlet which comes with the finest cuts of Japanese pork loin and different sauces. All the sauces paired well with the pork cutlet, each added different taste to the pork cutlet.

The pork cutlet was crispy on the outside with the light battered while the lean meat within was tender and juicy.

Stay tuned for more sharing by location.
