Previewed By2 latest album - MY.遊樂園. This album consist of different genre of music which suit their image pretty well. One plus point about them will be having their unique personality which many has yet to grasp that at the moment.

The recommended track from me will be: 沒理由, 不哭了, 就這樣嗎 and 藏不住.

Signing off with by2 hit song, which was my favourite from this album!

Kazushige Numata and his wife Kayoko have two sons. The first son Shinichi studies well, but the second son Shigeyuki does not. Kazushige and Kayoko are worried about Shigeyuki, who might even fail to enter high school. Making things worse, Shigeyuki stays at home and don't go to school.

Kazushige and his wife Kayoko finds an ad for a private tutor on the internet. They contact and then meet Yoshimoto (Sho Sakurai), who is the private tutor. During their meeting, both parties lays out one condition to work with each other. The father stipulates that Shigeyuki must go back to school within a week or Yoshimoto will be fired. Meanwhile, Yoshimoto stipulates that the parents must not interfere with his work. Yoshimoto's extraordinary teaching methods then influences not only Shigeyuki, but also his entire family.

Finished watching The Family Game (Kazoku Gemu) recently. A show which revolves about a family that looked good on the outside but not realizing the ugly truth within it. 

I thought this film plot was nicely portrayed, keeping me in suspense. The main character will be the private tutor who uses different teaching methods to influence the family son to grow stronger and smarter in tackling different issues face in school. The story goes on from there where the family slowly discovered many ugly truth and try to amend it. 

There was also a secret truth about the private tutor on the reasons why he was doing this stuff all the while. It will be revealed towards to end of the show. 

Was impressed by Sho Sakurai acting capability here with his expressive expression! And yup, Shiori Kutsuna do look cute too!

Previewed 杜德伟 Alex To latest album - 好樣. It has been quite awhile since He has a new album! The previous album was 8 years ago! 

This album is pretty good and he maintain his own unique personality. As usual, his ballads score high in this album! Think his vocal range suit slow songs better!

The recommended track from me will be: 想要快樂, 妳值得, 妳不再孤單 and 因為你. The song which I adore most will be 妳不再孤單!

Finally get to watch Platinum data! Woo! The story was not realistic but triggers one mind on the technologies in future. It kept viewers in suspense as you watched on. I think the story flow was good as it kept me in mystery mode while watching.

The mystery was revealed towards the end of the show with certain answers to the entire plot. You have to be attentive in order to get the gist of this film. If not, there will be many question marks in your head.

Nice acting capability from Kazunari Ninomiya with the 2 different character that he portrayed.

Ninagawa is a powerful man in Japanese politics and with top economic connections. His granddaughter is then murdered. The suspect is Kunihide Kiyomaru (Tatsuya Fujiwara). Kunihide Kiyomaru has a prior conviction for assaulting and killing a girl 8 years ago. The police could never apprehend the suspect in the prior killing. 

Three months after the murder of his granddaughter, Ninagawa places a whole page ad in the 3 big Japanese newspapers. The ad states "Please kill this man Kunihide Kiyomaru and I will pay you 1,000,000,000 yen as a reward." Meanwhile, Kunihide Kiyomaru sees the ad and begins to fear for his life. Kunihide Kiyomaru then turns himself in at the Fukuoka Police Station. Five detectives from the security section (SP) of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department travel to Fukuoka to escort Kunihide Kiyomaru back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. The distance between Fukuoka and Tokyo is approximately 1,200 km. During their fateful trip, a significant portion of the Japanese population plot to kill Kunihide Kiyomaru. Many of those people, actually pursue Kunihide Kiyomaru while he goes back to Tokyo to get the 1 billion yen reward. The lonely fight of the five detectives to protect this man begins...

Watched Shield of Straw with Gary earlier this evening! Was looking forward to this film because Tatsuya Fugiwara was in it! 

I felt that the story was direct and straight to the point. There were similar scenes depicted which I thought was unnecessary. Nice suspense and action scenes throughout the film but I thought it could be even better. Though Tatsuya Fugiwara is not the main lead, he was expressive as usual.

This is a decent film but as compared to others such as kaiji, the incite mill and gantz, I think they are slightly better in terms of the flow and storyline.

Since it started in 2011, the ULTIMATE RAMEN CHAMPION competition has established itself to be a favorite amongst lovers of Japanese cuisine. Over 13 brands have participated and the spirit of competition has brought about the desire to produce high-quality and good-tasting ramen to the delight of ramen lovers everywhere.

Currently the largest ramen operation in Singapore, it has served over a million satisfied customers from its 2 outlets in Changi Airport and Bugis+. Despite its success, Ramen Champion still continues to strive to provide for the best in order to satisfy the cravings of its customers.

Was invited to Ultimate Ramen Champion for a food tasting session! The restaurant has a nice ambiance with warm lighting. It is a good place to chill with friends and loved ones

There are quite a number of stalls there! So.. you can simply purchase it using the card given when you enter in the restaurant. 

Here are the list of stalls that I tried during the food tasting:

The one I tasted was Ajitama Ramen. I think this bowl of ramen look pretty appetizing when served. It comes with a slightly bigger bowl with cabbage and bean sprouts which is a rather refreshing concept. The broth is thick and rich in flavour. The noodles are thick and pretty chewy! If you are a vegetable fan, you will love this dish even more!

  

The one I tasted was Nikumashi Ramen (Pork) & Beef Nikumashi Ramen (New). The Tonkotsu broth here is light and tasted slightly sweet. I thought it gave a surprise to my taste bud because I like it pretty much. The well-marinated pork belly was slice thinly and tasted tender! The egg was perfectly poached and was a great combination with the ramen. As compared, I think the Pork tasted better! 

The one I tasted was Special Ramen & Tsukemen (dipping noodles- New). The broth is light and with a strong spring onions flavor which I thought was rather salty for me. I like the well-marinated Cha Shu because it was flavorful and tender! One of the better ones I have eaten! 

Tsukemen tasted good with the dipping it the noodles in the broth. Do not try the soup just by itself because you will be overwhelm with the taste. Dip it with noodles and it tasted yummy! Nice hanjuku eggs there as well!

  

This Deep-fried Tofu with Japanese Sauce pretty tasted good! Soft on the inside, Crispy on the outside! It is best to eat it once it was served!!   

And yup, tried this new beverage from Heaven and Earth! I think it tasted pretty good! You can really taste the freshness of the tea!

Lastly, here's a group photo with Bario Chef!

Great to see Damien there! Great to mingle and make new friends! Grateful for this opportunity to attend this food tasting session. Thank you Malcolm for the host and invitation! (;
