I still remember coming here when I was little, sat on the second floor, cars rolling along the sizzling tracks of Scotts Road behind me while slabs of beef grilled quickly before my eyes. After the ever-satisfying meal we would couch ourselves in the lounge and I would go all kid-happy over a scoop of lemon sorbet.Things have changed over the years. I have been back almost every year since for their buffet lunches, but have never seen the mythical second floor again, nor tasted that scoop of sorbet. But the essence of Shima's teppanyaki remains: a hearty serving of well-prepared and well done Japanese essentials. They still roll out quality starters - I always double, and then triple on the sashimi, shishamo and tempura - and do a good fry-up of prawns, chicken, beef, bean sprouts and most uniquely of all, oysters (I have of course had them raw, and then battered, but never grilled as such), in addition to the delicate slices of salmon that were baked before us. The freshness of each meat was evident and it was no surprise that on my latest visit, the bubbly chef cheekily talked us down from our choice of our preference of beef cooked to 'medium-well' to the much more delightful texture of 'medium-rare'; he must have felt vindicated by the smiles exchanged around the table. That said, I have personally found more enjoyment in their BBQ buffet lunches, where matters are taken into your own hands. Perhaps it is the great responsibility that makes me feel great empowerment, but in particular I savour the casualness of cooking the dishes myself, as well as the thinness of the slices of beef that melt more easily in the mouth, compared to the juicy chunks that are served for the teppanyaki buffet. Don't forget to ask for the garlic fried rice, surely the unsung hero of this buffet: the garlic is crisp but not overwhelming, and serves as the perfect accompaniment to the mixed vegetables. Even without treating this as a buffet (where the classic game-plan would be to stuff yourself with the most expensive stuff, shunning the carbs), I'd say you're just about getting your money's worth. (Note: I've only ever been here for lunches - dinners seem to be a little out of my price bracket)
