There are so many steamboat restaurants around, one has to be different to stand out from the rest. Shabu Zone is slightly different from the others, though the variety might not be as good as Fat One but it's acceptable. The service here is good; the people working here are friendly and very eager to assist.

Uncle Tetsu Cheesecake @ 1 Utama


Oh no check out the queue. Some of the people have been standing in the queue for more than 30 minutes. I'm one of them unfortunately. 

Every person is only entitled to purchase 1 Signature Cheesecake. And their oven can only bake 10-12 pieces every 30-40 minutes hence the long wait.

Or you can skip the long wait by buying the Cheese Zuccotto or Cheese Stick.

Cheese Zuccotto.

Another 8 minutes to go, woohoo :)


Finally we got it :)

Important Facts before you consume your cheesecake.

Uncle Tetsu Signature Cheesecake.

I better take a picture with it since I stood in line almost an hour or more.
It better be special.

Indeed the cheese cake is very soft and fluffy but taste wise I would say it has a very light cheese taste. You can barely taste it. 

After seeing such a long queue for the cheesecake, I assume it must be good, why else would everyone bother queuing and waiting an hour or more for it right? Unfortunately once I've tasted it, I think this cheesecake is overrated. I cannot comprehend why everyone is queuing for a cheesecake that barely had any cheese taste. Let's say on a scale of 1 to 10 of how tasteful the cheesecake is, I would rate a 4. I consume the leftover cheesecake the following day, there is barely any cheese taste left which rates a 1. It's best to consume the whole cake immediately after purchase or at least a couple of hours after.

U-Desserts @ IOI Boulevard



Ice Blended Mango ~ Okay.

Crazy Waffle Ice Cream ~ Waffles are overcooked and tough.

I'm craving for waffles with ice cream and butter; I'm not too keen on ordering Crazy Waffle Ice Cream because the fruits are splattered all over the waffles which I don't like. I would rather order waffles with butter then add ice cream on the side. So I asked the waitress if I could do so, she said she will check, she came back and said not possible. 

Then I asked her how about I order Crazy Waffles then give me butter on the side. She went behind the counter again came back and said no. By this time I'm already very annoyed. What's so difficult to give butter on the side, just charge me for it for crap sake. 

My last attempt I spoke to the guy who looks like he's in charge, asked if I could order Crazy Waffles but put the fruits and butter aside. He was confused at first then came back and asked me. After a long while, I finally got my waffles but without butter. It's okay I give up.

I want my butter :/
