Debasaki Japanese Style Chicken Restaurant
When my fellow Xangan, Azriha wrote a post on Debasaki, I KNEW, just knew that I have to come here. The number one reason being that this restaurant makes fried chicken with stuffing in it!! Just the concept alone is enough to win me over. Now, I have tried different kinds of fried chicken in which I classify by geography. American fried chicken is satisfying, but Korean fried is gourmet and very addictive. I have yet to try Japanese fried chicken, and I made it my mission to go there right after my gym work-out on Saturday. Yes, this is how passionately I feel for asian fried foods!
Understand that just because the restaurant advertised that it is Japanese Style Chicken, doesn’t mean it is runned by the Japanese. In fact, this place is runned by koreans! I don’t know where they got the recipe for Japanese fried chicken, but all I know is that it’s a great idea.
When Finechinaguy and I walked into the restaurant at 10pm, I thought I walked into a trendy lounge. It is dimly lit in there and there’s a stretch that you have you walk down in order to find the waitress. I felt like a model when I walked down that stretch because the whole room was pumped, literally pumped with clubbing music. Ok, Akon’s Dangerous was on, but later on there was other hip-hop, r&b, and pop! As I was walking down with ‘Guy, I noticed that there are booths, just like what my fellow Xanga mentioned.

So please stay tune!
Papaya Monster (8 pounds)
Papaya
Finechinagirl’s mother bought this behemoth of a Papaya. Its 8 pounds of fruity goodness from Mexico! Its pretty massive. I didn’t even know papayas could be so large. I love papaya when its chilled just right and sliced up so you can just eat your way through its sweetness with a hint of bitterness towards the skin. In the summer, its great to chop it into a smoothie. How do you like yours?
Kumquats are in season!
Kumquats are the cherry tomato version of the orange except that you can eat the skin! According to my mother, the best time to get it is from mid-autumn to winter time. Or if you can’t keep track of your seasons, you can tell if your local supermarkets carry them. A sure sign of this is when you go to a local Chinese market. They come in a box for your convenience and it’s very inexpensive to get.
