I'm not in the mood to write a long review, so I hope these photos would be enough.
Here's the birthday cake from Vikings. <3
The birthday boy was early. He made a walk-in reservation before 5PM and we got the 9th spot.

I love the ambiance. There were a lot of customers that day, but it didn't make the place look too crowded.
Our table was near the dessert station.
appetizers
shabu-shabu section
pizza and pasta station
You guessed it. I ordered red sauce. I loved the mozarella cheese and tomatoes, but still my pasta tasted a little bland.
sushi boat
sashimi station - that guy over there got me my fave salmon
another boat - maki rolls
more finger foods - the chili con carne is a must try, pour it over your nachos
salad station - you won't find us hanging out here. HAHA!
tea time!
you don't have to try their ramen - go pick something else
enjoying his cake
carving station
go for the tenderloin!
take us home! HAHA!
more than 10 drinks to choose from, not to mention milo smoothie and fruit shakes
we recommend their blueberry and strawberry lemonade
snow ice
having a frozen yogurt aside from ice cream is a plus point
it's fondue time!
here's my creation - ichi's frozen yogurt
loved their ice cream too!
another one - strawberry and green tea ice cream topped with walnuts and mallows
satisfied with their dessert selection as well
must try: creme brulee and red velvet cheesecake
this one's good too
Few minutes spent answering their quick survey. High-tech!
What I loved about it:
- Birthday promo!
- Reasonable price for dinner and lunch
- Convenient location
- Great selection of dishes, drinks, desserts and more
- Presence of chefs makes it look more upscale
- Accommodating staff
- Ambiance similar to hotel buffets
Watch-outs:
- Ignore the tempura - size is so disappointing :(
- Drink station tends to be little messy because of spills
- I expected more kinds of sushi/rolls and dimsum/dumplings
- 2 main stations are located on opposite sides - imagine the walk
- I expected more fruits
Overall, we really enjoyed our experience. We almost tried every station. HAHA! YOLO meal to the highest level! It was indeed a sumptuous birthday dinner. :)
And now, for the finale.
Happy birthday again to my bestfriend, to my original bear. :P
I can't wait for my next feast at Vikings!
