Right after our breakfast on our 3rd day, we head to ABC Cooking Studio Midtown Studio for cooking lessons! It was super fun because I made my favourite teriyaki chicken and maki sushi!
Ingredients..
Our instructor.
Tuna and Mayo.
Joanna mixing them.
Pretty japanese mixing the rice!
Salmon!
3 bowls of rice for us to share!
seaweed!
Victoria preparing the roll!
like.a.pro!
All the girls looking so serious suddenly. lol!
While we were busy with the chicken and salmon, our group mates are preparing the ingredients for the desserts later!
I was already so hungry by then and I just want to finish up the chicken quickly.
Sydney and Joanna were thirsty and they went to make tea (i know right!) and I had to monitor their induction cooker. LOL! I was so stressed because I don’t know what to expect!
Victoria was still there cooking like a pro!
So here’s me, looking at their chicken meat and worrying that the oil might splatter onto me!
But you have to act chio infront of the camera, so here I am smiling. LOL
Yummms!
Pour in the teriyaki sauce and look at this. Wow now I’m really hungry!
Sydney and Joanna’s chicken meat was burnt by the way LOL!
After the teriyaki chicken were done, we continued to make our maki roll and Victoria and I were trying our very best to make our dishes look beautiful hahaha.
The sushi kept collapsing and we had to keep pressing and shaping it.
Eventually we completed the ‘challenge’ and here I am holding our masterpiece hahaha. I look different here man. Maybe it’s the short hair..
After the cooking experience and lunch, we went for Yukata dressing at Nihonbashi, place: Kyorakutei, COREDO Muromachi 3, 3F!
This is my first time wearing Yukata and I honestly don’t know what to expect. I don’t even know which prints/colors I would look better in and just decided on the really light coloured one..
Would like to try with Simon too!
Change into my yukata and we did a short photoshoot. LOL so awkward. My face and eyes were so puffy by the way!
I look too guai here. Deceiving HAHA.
Group photo!
After that we went for japanese tea and desserts tasting at Tsuruya Yoshinobu, Coredo Muromachi 3, 1F!
very beautiful handcrafted traditional sweets from kyoto but I think they are too sweet for me.
Next, we visited the Art Aquarium – Nihonbashi Mitsui Hall, Coredo Muromachi 1, 5F (Entrance on 4F)
beautiful setups, lightings and goldfish!
after this we went for a walk along the NAKA DORI through the Coredo Muromachi shopping area!
and more photos with the peeps at the Fukutoku Shrine! Do you know that Fukutoku Shrine has been watching over the town and the people of Nihonbashi since the 9th century?
Around 5pm or so, we changed back to our own clothes and prepare to go to our hotel. We stayed at Tokyo Bay Ariake Washington Hotel for the last night!
It was a transit hotel and the room was quite small but 3 of us continue to sleep in the same bed that night anyway. lol! After checked in and wash up, we met up again and wanted to go to Shibuya but lost our way. We ended up stopping at a random station, if I’m not wrong it was Osaki station and just settle at someplace nice for a quick dinner. hahhaa. I remembered there was nothing to see nor shop and we were just walking around aimlessly. But the most epic moment of the night was when we stood along this road that seemed to be the expressway and gossip for about 45minutes. LOL.
Our dinner place at a random Izakaya.
ordered yakitori, gyozas and FRIED RICE. We had to point at the menu because no one knows how to speak english or chinese there. The 3 of us cannot go to japan again, we are real road idiots.
Really miss Japan and these 2 girls. I am finally finishing these posts! The next one will be the last one and I will try to publish it asap so that I can continue my Bali and MELBOURNE posts. Omg. -_-
Alright then, see you soon!
