Yabu - House of Katsu

Lower Ground Floor (Food Court Area)

It was my first time to try out Yabu.  It was a very filling meal.  Unlimited rice, shredded cabbage, and miso soup!  I do have a cold so I cannot be accurate on the how my order tasted.  Nonetheless, I enjoyed it especially the shredded cabbage and it's Goma dressing.

Vinaigrette Salad

Vinaigrette Salad

- Quick Recipe

The star of this recipe is the dressing.  It is something new you can try to graduate from the usual salad dressings like thousand islands or Caesar salad.  It also has fewer calories and quite refreshing.  It should be noted that this works best on iceberg or romaine lettuce as the dressing is runny.  These two types are what I found best absorbs the vinaigrette dressing.

RunKeeper

RunKeeper
- Mobile app I use to log the my run.

I have a friend who weekly logs in a 5k run.  I asked if she has a Garmin, but she said she just uses an app on her phone.  This was that app - RunKeeper.  Simply activate the GPS on the phone and you're good to go.
