Chubu Centrair International Airport Nagoya has much to offer in terms of F&B. :) Thumbs up! We couldn't leave Nagoya without having another Nagoya style breakfast. :) Breakfast today was at Cafe Yutori No Kukan. Nagoya toast with honey, ham, salad and
red beans
Honey & coffee
There was just one more Nagoya speciality on our to-try list! :))) Lin bought us tempura rice balls for snacking on the flight back to Singapore. :) Meifutsu Temmusu Senju makes tempura rice balls using only the finest ingredients. :)
Such elaborate packaging. :)
Don't underestimate these plain looking babies. :)))
They are the most delicious tempura rice balls ever! :D

As we turn XX, I'm celebrating our birthdays overseas. It saves loved ones and friends the hassle of celebrating our special day with us. :))) Besides, there's always the two of us. So it wouldn't be too quiet. :)))
On top of the birthday tart Marriott prepared for us, Beanie got us my fav strawberry cake from Gramercy. :)
We are God's two-rific creation :) Double the giggles, double the grins, double the trouble, double the pain. Twice as much to love, two blessings from above. :) Blessed birthday Lin & me! :)
I love shabu shabu! Lin brought us to Taiko Honten for our birthday dinner. :) Taiko Honten specialises in traditional shabu shabu and Kaseiki cuisine.
I was hoping for something more casual as we had a week of fine dining already. *.* Anyway, everything seemed intricate here. :) Our Tokujo shabu shabu course included: a chilled starter (some tofu & jelly fish thingy)
assorted veg, mushrooms and tofu
and premium beef slices .
The service at Taikon Honten was impeccable.
Udon next up! :)
Mochi
Ochazuke :)
And finally, green tea ice cream :)

If you happen to be in Nagoya and you crave for pork cutlet, head down to Yabaton! :) Yabaton is known for its miso-katsu, pork cutlet prepared with thick miso sauce. We checked out their main store with its recognisable sumo-wrestling pig mascot. :) A must try would be their signature miso katsu. :)
The serving was huge and it came with rice. :)
Japanese curry pork cutlet was pretty awesome too.
Sides that came with the curry pork cutlet.
We overestimated our appetite. :))) Ebi-furai (Nagoya giant prawn) and kani korokke...
Say cheese with ebi furai! :D
Because the food was deep fried, we were too stuffed halfway through the meal. *.* Sharing is highly recommended at Yabaton! ;)
