Sweet Paradise 90 min!

Maybe some of you have been to fish fish’s blog already and found out we went to a cake buffet together last Sunday in Osaka ; ) It was so much fun, and so much food!! This is the name of the place: "Sweet Paradise 90 min!" with all-you-can-eat for 1260 yen for 90 min! Fish fish took more photos that show what this place was like. This is not what a restaurant does for certain time of the day only. To me it looked more like a fast-food shop. First, we were told to buy tickets from the vending machine in the waiting area. What tickled me was that the machine had a button to issue “ryoshusho” (voucher). I wondered if anyone would try to have it paid as a business expense. Mmmmm, maybe young office ladies on a business trip? My first plate I just had to jump on cakes before anything. Then at the end of the pastry section, I found some savory foods were served, such as sandwitches, spaghetti and soups. I decided to come back for them on my 2nd round. The cakes were not too sweet and actually better than I had expected from the price. And there were just too many kinds! (I guess I managed to try less than 2/3 of them, after all.) My 2nd plate These were tuna cream spaghetti and Japanese-style (maybe mentaiko?) spaghetti. Ginger soup. They also had corn cream soup. My 3rd plate Curry- flavored spaghetti, salad, and some sweets, including Japanese dango (dumplings) with anko(sweet red-soybean paste)! OMG, they have chirashizushi, too! At a cake buffet!!! Can you believe that? It was a smart idea for stimulating our appetite, I think. If they had cakes only, I would have gotten tired of sweet tastes and quit eating a lot earlier. These savory and sour dishes, however, really balanced out and made me feel like going for some more sweets. What a dangerous place! I really wonder what their secret is to make profits out of this buffet. This kind of place cannot be successful in smaller cities, I think... Another spaghetti…arabiata, IIRC. Uh…. These are about 1/3 of all the plates/cups/glasses we used… And ice cream topped with blueberry sauce + cornflakes and custard pudding. Of course, there’s always a special place for ice cream, you know. Boy, I've never eaten this much sweets at one time in my entire life!! @_@ After the cake buffet, fish fish and I went to Karaoke to consume some calories ;) It was another nice place with incredibly low price! Fish fish is a good singer. I was impressed. She also helped me find a Chinese song that I had been looking for. When I was in the U.S., a Chinese friend of mine recorded the song on a cassette tape and made photocopy of the lyrics for me, but the sound and the photocopy were not very clear. Then I misplaced the tape after coming back to Japan. Since then I’ve been wanting to find this song, but didn’t know the title. When I sang just a little part of the song, fish fish found it for me in the Karaoke book right away. Just like that! I’ve never dreamt of encountering this song again, and singing it again at a Karaoke place in Japan with a blogger friend!! Life is so interesting, isn't it?! Thanks a mil., fish fish :D You're a wonderful person!
