Teppan Yaki ... (with free ajinomoto)

Everytime when we were at the shopping mall .. the questions of what to eat is always a big problem...
My wife is a bit picky & undecisive ... however fast food is always out of her options.....

We thought of having dinner @ 1 U since we are going to redeem our free movie tickets .......
Again the problem question pop out again .."What to eat ...."
Passed by the new food court and saw a teppanyaki stall..
So I suggested and without much thinking my wife agree to it........

The name of the stall is Kulin Teppanyaki .. (Don't ask me why)...


We look at the menu and decided to order meal set (which is come with soup, beanstrouts, choy sum & rice),,,
I ordered a chicken chop set and my wife order the salmon set....(which is not in the big value pic above)

(choy sum, beanstrout & ABC soup)
choy sum & beanstrout - taste is OK but too much of ajinomoto
ABC Soup was OK .. but too much of ajinomoto .. (of course is not as good as homemade soup)
                                                 Free Ajinomoto - put a lot to taste GOOOD...

                              I love the fried chopped garlic (requested to put extra).. is good...
                                

(chicken chop)
Mushroom sauce with too much of ajinomoto again .... n a bit too much of butter ...
(my wife is on diet for the CNY feast ...)

                                                           Chicken chop & salmon

Opps the chef is too fast didn't manage to capture the sprinkle of  Ajinomoto

(salmon)
2 words - "Too Fishy" (Hou Sen)
It is not good.. so I don't bother to capture the pic .....
(Summary)
It could be a better if they reduce the AJINOMOTO ....
Both of us were so thirsty after the meal .......

If you love Ajinomoto .. then is the place for you......

  5. lol! ajinomoto, hmm nowadays everywhere seems to be using ajinomoto like nobody's business, especially chinese eateries. What to do, homecooked meals still the best. :)

  9. what a great post! :) Thank you. Finally I found out what ingredients were in Teppan Yaki we had had few months ago :) Just would like to clarify ajinomoto seasoning - what exactly is that?

    1. Ajinomoto also known monosodium glutamate is added because it enhances the umami taste (savory). It makes all foods taste great.
      Then it makes us very thirsty.. if the food is very fresh it doesn't need to put this MSG.

    2. thank you for your answer :) and maybe one more question :))) would you know what kind of sauce was on the chicken? :) I know funny question - but here in central Europe this kind of dish is considered as highly exotic :)))
