I am glad to be invited to this grand opening where guests were treated to an authentic Japanese launch ceremony. I enjoyed the intriguing showcases of the Japanese culture such as a magnificent Taiko Drum performance, Traditional Japanese 'Soran Bushi' dance and Mochitsuki Ceremony.

Japanese Taiko Drum (a traditional Japanese instrument) was performed beautifully with much vigour. 

Satisfaction is written everywhere with their smiling faces as they give a final bow to guests. Magnificent and hats off to this talented group!

Fried mochi - two types of flavours, Pandan and Durian. The durian mochi is so addictive to me, its a wow! Must try for durian lovers.
