Nanny's Pavillion: We Love Tuna!!

Last Saturday, me and my friends wandering around Pacific Place Mall after attending a seminar at @america. We're starving and my friend, a Pacific Place adventurer, suggested us to try Nanny's Pavillion. She recommend baked rice tuna, and that's what I ordered.

Once I ate it, everything felt melted, starting from my tongue down to the belly and ended at my heart. Hmmmm~~ It consists of melting cheese, melting tuna and balanced with grainy rice, all of them formed a perfect combination to satisfy your appetite.  Seems like they baked the rice and tuna in the inner plate and then give the second plate so we can eat safely. The baked tuna really deserved four thumbs up.
