Dinner @ Kushigin

We had dinner at Kushigin @ Cuppage Plaza recently. We had this craving for japanese food but wanted to try out somewhere different. So we went to browse through different food blog and chanced abt this place. We had wanted to go to another place(we totally forgot wat it is called), also at cuppage plaza but it was fully booked. Seems like cuppage plaza has quite a few good authentic jap restaurents.

Because there was like 6 of us + 1 infant, we manage to get a private corner, which was kinda cosy.

It is a charcoal grilled restaurent. From the blog reviews, we knew that the restaurent was famous for its yakitori. So we went crazy ordering sticks!
