Go straight, you’ll find Excapade Sushi on your left.
Excapade Sushi, Gadong, Brunei
Yet another trip to Brunei, this time to the heart of it – Bandar Seri Begawan.
Yesterday, some associates of mine and I drove all the way to the capital from Miri to suffice our lust for quality Japanese food.
Approximately, one and a half hour later, we reached the HQ of the Excapade Sushi, Gadong Branch.
Welcomed with smiles and respect by the staffs over there really pleased us. They were friendly too!

The party set – B$ 50. Worth the price, looks nice, big portion, fresh but we almost can’t finish this. Haha.

I can’t really remember what is this but this Sandwich is delicious.
Kelvinsse.com had also visited the Kuala Belait Excapade Sushi.
Brunei Here I Come
kelvinsse.com is now accessible and available for viewing.
However, I still haven’t get all the technical stuffs to be working completely.
Going off for another trip to Brunei. Expect some sushi feast today!
Nikko Japanese Restaurant.

Yesterday, Leo Club of Curtin University had a reunion at Nikko Japanese Restaurant for an appreciation dinner dedicated to the committee members of Leo Club Orientation Day 2008 and Environmental Project 2008 as a recognition to their efforts and commitments in the projects.

Nikko Japanese Restaurant is one of the best outlet in Miri that serves Japanese Cruisine. It had a nice interior eluded with nice lighting ambient. Nikko is a suitable spot to impress your date with a euphoric dinner and an excellent spot for family gathering.
The service was quite good. We had waitress filling our cups every now and then. which continues to the end of the dinner.

Everyone us (Lions and Leos) had a thrilling and tremendous dinner.

We had our Past District Governor from Labuan with us as our special guest for tonight’s dinner.

Overall, we had estatic and joyful dinner. The management of Nikko will be laughing their way to bed tonight having to know that they are cashing in a huge sum as we (30 people) spent around Rm2100.00++ for this meal. Well, as the saying goes “work hard and play hard” in our case, its work hard, eat hard.
