Japanese Buffet?
Last night, my recommendation was sought for a decent Japanese buffet, reasonably priced with good variety, something exotic and different, other than the "usuals" (like Ikoi, Hanabi, Honjin, Kushinbo etc)
Minori Dining & Sake Bar

I was half tempted to suggest Minori Dining & Sake Bar after I saw the buffet menu ($28 lunch/$32 dinner) on their website, the range of sashimi seems quite impressive and they have yakitori as well! It's opened by the previous owners of Hanabi, should be around that standard? But I've not been there personally, so can't really much about the food quality from the pictures.
I just had to come across some terrible reviews on service @ minori, poor service is something I can't accept. If you're definitely charging the 10% service charge, then at least have the minimum decency to give people what they will have to pay for?
I pass ...
While searching, I found these 2 other Japanese restaurants at Camemberu's blog, he takes really good pictures with just a plain old Sony DSC-W50
Wasabi Bistro at Mandarin Oriental (Sunday Brunch $58 or $118)

Sushi Kizuzawa ($29 lunch/$39 dinner)
Selling point - incredible selection of sushi, including sea urchin!

I've not given him my recommendation yet, anyone tried Wasabi Bistro or Sushi Kizuzawa?
Dang, I got myself tempted looking at these pictures //
Btw, if anyone is even considering to suggest Sakae ....
Yepp, he spat it out .....
