Sushi Tei is located in Gadong in Brunei at the shops just in front of the Centerpoint Hotel. This is by far one of the better Japanese food I have tried in Brunei. The other great thing is that they are giving 30% on their a-la-carte menu *yippie*

I ordered the mix sashimi tei special set, at only B$9.90, you get 3 yellow fin tuna, 2 sashimi salmon, 2 abura bozu, 1 tako, 2 hotate, 2 tamago, 1 rice, 1 miso soup 1 appetizer & 1 salad!!! Talk about value for money!

Other goodies here includes their grilled seafood served in a hot plate as well as the deep fried octopus.

This is a great place with nice cozy environment and provides great value too!

Daniel got some lobsters from Sg Renggit in Johor and I was asked over to do a cook out. Being a newbie to lobster and since the lobster is not live, I have decided to grill them instead.

So, I got my Tefal electric grill out from the storeroom and put it to good use. The lobsters need to be cut into half from the tail up and you will need a really big and sharp knife to do the job. I recommend chinese chopper if you have them. Wash up the lobster and get it ready to grill.

I placed a small pot on the grill and melt some butter then add in chopped chilies and coriander leaves. You may add in garlic if fancy. Then brush a light layer of the melted butter on the inner lobster’s flesh and put them face down on the grill. You may turn it to brush more butter as needed but I would not recommend to much or the butter taste will cover the lobsters.

Once cooked, serve the lobsters with more coriander leaves and squeeze lime juice on it just before eating.

This is a really simple to do tom yam soup which can easily be made at home in a quick manner. You can take this soup on its own, go with rice or add in noodles if you fancy.

First things you need are:
1. 1-2 Bird chili (depends how spicy u can take it)
2. 1 clove of garlic
3. 1 lemon grass
4. 1 big red onion (sliced)
5. bunch of kaffir lime leaves
6. 1-2 big juicy lime (depends how sour you like it)

Crush all the above using a mortal and pestle to let out the fragrant (except for onion), then put them into a boiling stock. The stock should ideally be chicken or seafood stock, if you don’t have time for stock, stock cube are ok too.

Once they above are boiling again, add in vegetables of your choice, tomato, carrots, greens are good with this. Also put in any meat or seafood of your choice.

Once the meat or seafood is cook, its ready, simple right
