The decor’s nothing to shout about, the ventilation is horrible, the waiting staff aren’t trained to smile but the food is still good. Naomi and I had one of our first dates there, announced our engagement to our would-be wedding party there, and of course, ate till we burst each time.
Last night, we took Naomi’s mum and aunt from overseas to Shashlik Restaurant because we couldn’t think of anywhere else to go to that didn’t require too much traveling, and then we remembered, when you’re out of ideas for a good meal, just follow the instructions:
Check!
Check!
Check!
Prepare to smell like cooked beef!
Borsch!
Beef Shashlik medium rare
Banana flambee
Here’s hoping that this institution will be around for our own kids or grandkids to take us out to, even if we have to get them to mince the beef for us.

You’re right about the eating-till-you-burst part! I always overeat when I come here. The borsh is a practically a meal in itself.
But why did you tag this entry as “hainanese”?
It’s still there ??
Soup Nazi man that place.…
I had to tag this entry “Hainanese” and “Hainan” or else the Hainanese uncles would flambee my backside. Flambee is a Hainanese word. It is pronounced “Phlegm-Bee”.
And Lincoln, they are nothing like Soup Nazis. Soup Hainanese are a lot worse.
hahahahahaha I’ll take your word for it…
