Media Sake Tasting Event + Dinner at CALI Rochester

I met up with my usual clique for dinner, and we settled at one of the CALI outlets which is located at Park Avenue Rochester. This lovely eatery place specialises in Southwest cuisine (including Mexican food).




The CALI Wings were well-marinated and tasted fantastic, making it as a great option as a side dish.





I highly recommend the Baby Back Ribs, as the meat literally melted in my mouth. 




The Chicken Fajitas tasted great, and we loved the tantalizing caramelised onions. To enjoy the fajita to the fullest, simply put the chicken meat and the onion in a tortilla wrap with the given condiments and greens.

We were surprised by the price tag of the Lava Torte, but when we tasted it, I could respect the price! This finest dessert is truly worth every single dollar.


The Lava Torte has a rich, gooey lava centre.


Overall, we enjoyed everything that we had ordered. Money well-spent and truly eaten! CALI Rochester is perfect gathering place for family and friends, as well as for couple date!

I attended the Media Sake Tasting event which was hosted by J Passport, in collaboration with Tokai Food Export Consortium, Kobayashi and Ishi-san with my Baby Hubby.





Zaku is also recognised for its prime quality and it is known as 'Less Sake Cheesecake'.


During the Sake Tasting, there were 9 exclusive sakes from Tokai region - in particular, Mie and Gifu Prefecture.

Handago Junmaiginjo bears a high aroma with light flavor. This sake goes well with cheese, ham, and other Japanese snacks that goes well with white wine. It has a gorgeous aroma with a soft taste of elegant sweetness. Enjoy it best after chilled!

Oku Vintage Junmai Ginjo Original Sake is an aged sake that is kept well at a low temperature of below 10 degrees Celsius throughout the year. This ensures the sake retains gorgeous aroma and deep flavor that is created by ‘time’!

I enjoyed the tasting of these exclusive sakes from Tokai region! In the end, I purchased the Owari Otokoyama Daiginjo as it has a gorgeous aroma with a soft taste of elegant sweetness! 


Lastly, thanks for the invite!

KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts.

They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder.

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.

The common scalp problems can cause a lot of irritation, but also hair loss. I was in complete shock at the state of my nightmarish infected scalp!
