[[Wacha, cozy shophouse..intricate servings of Japanese food]]


I read about Wacha and wanted to try it so I dragged J along. It is located at Ann Siang Hill amidst one of the shophouses. Wacha is a little shop specialising in Japanese lacquer ware as you can see in the photo below. There are pretty serving plates, bowls and cups that cost a bomb! Shall stock up on those when I have the money next time!


Beautiful tea pots and cups

The restaurant area is at the back of the store and it's a really small but cozy place. J and I were the only customers at 2pm. (Yes! they only open at 2pm-11pm!). We ordered the set lunch and we were delighted with the intricate and beautiful lacquer wares. The presentation of the food just makes you just want to admire it for a long time. But I was too hungry by 2pm so I greedily gobbled the food after I took some photos.

The appetizer was served in a two-layer lacquer basket. J and I was really fascinated by it coz it looked so pretty but of coz, when he saw it, he got pretty worried. (coz the portion of the food was really small!) We were served 6 different appetisers- all of them really good but it just made me hunger for more...

Appetizers in a basket!
