I cook my own food, too

You always say you cook your own food in Germany. Agio Olio, fried egg, rice, sandwiches etc. I guess by the time you finish your 2-year course, you can be a part-time chef already. Actually you are not the only one who does cooking. I do cook once in a while, too. The last cooking session was in Aburiya, Clark Quay. Apparently there is also one Aburiya japanese char-grill in Holland Village. We have never notice that before. It is just opposite Subway.
My cooking session was initiated by big boss who wanted to show his appreciation towards a group of us who contributed in organizing an out-of-office meeting. Before we started to cook, the waiter pour some hot burning charcoal into the clay pot. Then we ordered beef, beef and more beef. Slices by slices, we placed them onto the grill. The smell is really good.


It was interesting looking at the raw red meat slowly turned into my dinner. Besides beef, we had some vegetables such as corn, paprika, onion and garlic. Ya!! Whole garlics and there are a dozen of them!! But in the end, nobody touched the garlic at all.


We also ordered 3 pots of korean rice for our carbo intake. If not, we would have spent a fortune on meat alone. The rice is well seasoned and the hot stone pot keep the rice warm at all times. Anyway we ate up everything before it turned cold.

We had a few cups of cold sake also. The small cup is beautiful.
