Wooshiโ€™s Make-your-Own-Bowl/Roll gives you complete control of your meal. Check out their extensive range of delectable ingredients and make the perfect meal for you, the possibilities are endless! Donโ€™t forget to drizzle your creation with the sauce of your choice to tie it all together!

one of my go-to options when i need a healthy meal hehe delicious bowl but wont feel guilty SLAYY๐Ÿคฏ

KINEX remains a low footprint mall but thereโ€™s actually plenty of food selections here, including this Japanese restaurant. Serving extensive Japanese cuisine with wide range of menu.

I gotten the spicy soup ramen with cha shu, which you also can get it with gyu instead.

Tasty bowl of soup with hint of spicy, not to overwhelming. Thereโ€™s lots of corn given, accompanied with seaweed and pieces of cha shu. I like the cha shu which retain the fat.

Similar to the Maki-San concept, we get to customise our very own sushi bowl with a choice of base (green mix / warm sweet potato noodles, furikake white rice / mixed warm brown rice), accompanied by a choice of 1 main, 1 sauce, 2 toppings and 3 fillers.

My order goes like this
Base - Mixed Warm Brown Rice
Main - Teriyaki Chicken (?)
Sauce - Yoozoo Sesame Sauce
Toppings - Fish Flakes, Bonito Furikake
Fillers - Kani Sticks, Roasted 'shrooms (+$0.50), Ebiko

I actually ordered warm sweet potato noodles as my base but they gave me mixed warm brown rice instead ๐Ÿ˜ฆ The teriyaki chicken didn't taste like teriyaki and I'm unsure if they threw in the cajun chicken breast as these were the only two types of chicken shown on the checklist. Sauce with yuzu sesame was a good choice with a myriad of flavours and the roasted shrooms were something that turned out unexpectedly better as compared to the rest of the items in the bowl ใ€‹$7.90 + $0.50 Roasted 'shrooms

Similar to the Maki-San concept, we get to customise our very own sushi rolls with a choice of white/mixed brown rice served in nori wrap as a base, accompanied with a choice of 1 main, 1 sauce, 2 toppings and 3 fillers.

My order goes like this
Base - Mixed brown rice
Main - Salmon sashimi (+$2.50)
Sauce - Spicy Mayo
Toppings - Tempura Crunch, Nori Chicken Floss
Fillers - Sliced Avocado, Tamago, Ebiko

Perhaps I was expecting it to be similar to Maki-San since Wooshi was from the same founder but the whole roll that I ordered lacks flavour. Unlike sushi rice which usually comes with vinegar and a sticky texture, the brown rice was merely loose plain brown rice that couldn't hold well. The amount of sauce given was too little for us to even savour it and the only flavours I can taste was some saltiness from the chicken floss and sweetness from tamago and ebiko ใ€‹$7.90 + $2.50 Salmon Sashimi

Found this bar and the food is pretty okay! Though you can give the stew a miss, the burgers are really not bad. We got the Wasabi Beef Burger ($18.80 1 for 1 with #entertainer) and the burger patty was thick, juicy and very flavourful! The wasabi sauce actually goes well with the burger ingredients, making this a wonderful sloppy mess. The fries are pretty addictive, and taste just like Mcdonald fries.
