Shabu Shabu Sumire-An in Tanjong Pagar

So the Itadakimasu folks at 100AM have changed the old Gyu Jin shabu shabu into one named Sumire-An (100 Tras Street #03-11), which presumably is unrelated to the Sumire yakitori chain. Actually, it seems like it's an extension of the yakiniku shop next door, which was previously Heijoen but is now chain from Japan called Gyubei.

I might not have even noticed though had no one told me, as they were still sporting the old Gyu Jin signage everywhere. That signature black sesame broth wasn't as exciting as it sounded, and the spread of unlimited veggies and treats (like somen, curry, and ice cream) made it feel rather downscale. But it was affordable, and was better than that Suki-ya place.
