7 Sensations

The human species is endowed with 5 senses; sight, taste, hearing, smell & touch. Our tongue can detect sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and unami, the taste revolutionised by Japanese through the simple sprinkling of Ajinomoto or monsodium glutamate on our food. It is the glutamate that heightens the taste buds and the sensory experience so much that some of us can get allergic to it! I for one will suffer from thirst that can only be quenched with copious amounts of water downed within an hour. Such is the price, or rather small price we pay for our enjoyment.

For 7 Sensations, it is a quaint little organic vegetarian shop that sits pretty between 2 shophouses at Madras Lane at Little India. It is a favourite haunt of mine notwithstanding the fact that it used to be very near to where I used to work! Avocado and mango salad, tofu squares, korean rice, petai rice and its recent addition, pumpkin tofu cake are stuff that dreams are made of and which fortunately can be enjoyed in reality. Me, being the greedy one will be apt to order one too many dishes and look forlonly as the unfinished dishes are taken away all because I wanted more space for dessert! It is a happy place to me and it had brought beautiful memories of the great company I went with and the food, simply made.

7 Sensations - a place that invokes my senses and more.
