Yakitori Japanese Grill at Vino Vino in Taman Molek, Johor Bahru

Johor Kaki was invited by Christian, manager at Vino Vino Bistro to try their Japanese grill or yakitori dishes.





Vino Vino Bistro in Taman Molek is a very well appointed restaurant with an impressive range of beers, whiskies, fine wines, and premium spirits.



Vino Vino has a private room for those special occasions.



Vino Vino has plenty of choices of fine sake and shochu, needless to say.





And, this is the charcoal fired yakitori station that churns out all the delicious Japanese grilled dishes to go with the fine spirits in Vino Vino. Heading Vino Vino's kitchen is Japanese Executive Chef Inose Kazuhiro who has many years of working experience in Japan and Singapore, and over 10 years in Malaysia.



Before we get down to the yakitori, Christian started us off with a couple of Japanese appetisers. This was the Ockura Mentaiko Ae (RM16), lady's fingers with cod roe.



I liked this Ockura Mentaiko Ae a lot. The tender, crunchy, slightly sweet lady fingers with slimy sap were mixed with savoury cod roe. Excellent, delicious combination that really whetted my appetite. 



The Gobo salad (RM16) made with very thin slices of fried fibrous root is a very popular appetiser among Japanese.

Our appetites nicely whetted, it's time for the main course. Yakitori literary means "grilled chicken". So central to any good yakitori menu are its grilled chicken parts.







Nankotsu (RM3), chicken cartilage from the breast bone. My family and friends know that I will always "reserve" this part of the chicken whenever we eat together. I like nankotsu for its crunchy bite.



Torikawa (RM4) or grilled chicken skin and ginan (RM3) or grilled ginko nuts. Crispy and savoury.



When I saw bishop's noses (bonjiri RM6) on the menu, I couldn't resist asking for it. Hey, the best blend of skin, fat, meat, and collagen in a chicken is right here, not anywhere else. They are always good when grilled till the skin is crisp.



Aburi Mentaiko (RM38), cod roe marinaded in red capsicum juices and then grilled.



Salty and savoury with very subtle tender, poppy mouth feel from the bursting eggs, Aburi Mentaiko goes well with drinks, in my opinion.



Tokusei Tsukune (RM6) or "Special Meat Ball" made with minced beef and chicken.



The "meat ball" is dipped in soft boiled eggs and sauce before eating.



Eringi, King Trumpet Mushroom (RM3).



The manager's recommendation, Ocatsuki (RM6) or "Rice Ball in Green Tea Soup".



The steamed rice is compacted into a ball and then grilled till a slightly burnt crust forms. The bits of burnt, crunchy crust matched well with the clear, lightly flavoured broth to create an interesting dish that goes well with yakitori.



We had a couple of wines to help us wash all that yakitori down.



Getting to Vino Vino Bistro is really easy. Just 15 minutes' drive from downtown Johor Bahru via the EDL (Eastern Dispersal Link). If you don't want to drive, Vino Vino even has a limo service (actually a SUV clearly painted Vino Vino) in which they will pick up diners from anywhere in town and bring you to the restaurant. After your dinner, Vino Vino's limo will send you to anywhere you want to go in Johor Bahru town. Just call Vino Vino at 607-357-6699. I think this is a really thoughtful and helpful service. I will use this service the next time I am going to Vino Vino, and perhaps, indulge myself a little bit more in the drinks :)

I would definitely like to come back to Vino Vino Bistro for the food, drinks and the ambiance.

"The Clothes"

Happy belated Easter to all.  The sun is shining bright and we've cracked 45 degrees here in New York State.  Ah, the sun on my face has felt extraordinary. 

Today, I'm shipping out a few boxes to a wonderful friend.  For the past decade, four women (myself, my sister-in-law, one of my best friends from childhood and her very dear older sister) have traded and saved all of our maternity clothes.  This tradition began after I had my oldest two munchkins, and my sister-in-law was pregnant with her first.

I packed up all my maternity clothes (as friends do) and sent them her way.  What happened next was the beginning of a fabulous, economical system of clothes rotation.  She added to my clothes, and when one of my best friends from childhood got pregnant, we sent them to her.  She then added what she bought to the bins, and sent them back to me.  When her sister got pregnant with her first, we sent the bins to her.  Then they went back to my sister-in-law.  And then back to my friend, and then me, and, well, you get the idea.

What we have now is bags and bags of maternity clothes.  With all the trading and saving, anytime one of us gets pregnant whoever had the bins of maternity wear last must pass them on.

The bins and bags have become known to all of us as "the clothes."  I have had many calls that sound just like this,

"Who has "the clothes"? 

Last night, I went through four large bags of "the clothes" in preparation to send them off today to the latest expecting mom.  For the record, it is NOT me or my sister-in-law.

I weeded out anything with stains, anything that was discolored or fraying, and anything that was so old it looked like a rag (we've been trading for over ten years now).  What is left is two large bags of fabulous tanks, tops, jeans, swimsuits and dresses.

Today, these goodies ship out and the tradition of "the clothes" continues.

After all, sharing is caring.

Happy Monday.  Happy Spring.  Happy everything to everyone reading.  Much love to you!
