So, if you want to try a Japanese restaurant that serves authentic Japs cuisine, they have it. And best of all, to have the ‘Father of Tonkatsu’ personally selects ingredients and imports them from Japan to serve you with exquisite dishes at the restaurant, Tampopo is the place to go.
Overall, the food at Tampopo Sky Avenue (Genting Highlands) isn’t that spectacular. At least what I ordered wasn’t.
店家使用的原材料一律從日本引進，如米飯、麵條、拉麵湯頭、味噌等調味料，確保讓你吃到正宗日式拉麵、炸雞扒和丼飯！
Tak dinafikan ianya memang sedap especially Cheesecake. Tapi yang menarik perhatian aku adalah minuman Cheese Crema series. Ada empat jenis Cheese Crema yang boleh dipilih dan antaranya adalah black tea, green tea, japanese matcha dan juga Osmanthus Oolong.
Tokyo Secret has upped the ante. Introducing a multitude of flavours, the colourful cheese tarts peered through the glass casing beckoning me to pack them home. I have been patronising its sister o…
The cheese cake is creamy and dense yet is marvelously smooth and light. Am I even making sense here? In short, it is a great cheesecake! The boys will strive to continue baking until they can achieve something similar to this :lol:
Priced at RM110++ per person, it is a bit steep, but you get better quality and overall freshness of the meats, seafood and vegetables. And most importantly, you are dining in the best 5 stars resort in Cameron Highlands! You can also choose to have sukiyaki or teppanyaki for the same price, but I feel shabu shabu goes best with the chilly weather.
Reasons to visit: great setting with crisp evening air providing the perfect backdrop to the steaming hotpots; quality selection of fresh produce; fun interactive experience.
Gonbei is the only Japanese restaurant in Cameron Highlands and is a sister location to the Gonbei in Starhill Gallery. This restaurant boasts an open dining concept, making it ideal for steamboats. Incidentally, that was what rif and I had that night – shabu shabu. Priced at RM110++ per person,…
Gindaco Takoyaki @ SkyAvenue Genting Highlands Malaysia
The Original is Gindaco’s flagship, and it is drizzled with Gindaco’s signature sauce and topped with dried seaweed and dancing bonito flakes.
We ordered the Ebi Mayo Takoyaki (6 pieces @ RM17.90 / 8 pieces @ RM20.90) which was topped with shrimp and mayonnaise. Despite the higher price, not to mention every thing are slightly pricier in SkyAvenue Genting, we are not denying with the fact that the takoyaki was delicious. The unassuming looking takoyaki was firm but soft to bite, and it melted it your mouth. There were big chunks of octopus inside each takoyaki. The snack was actually quite filling and we shared one order amongst two people.
Ebi Don (S) It is really delicious when the airy and crispy deep fried Ebi absorb the delicious sweet soy sauce base. Served together with rice.
Mentaiko Spider Rolls. This softshell crab sushi rolls with avocado and mayonaise is to die for. Order this if you are not a fan of sushis with raw toppings like salmon or maguro slices. This Mentaiko Spider Rolls doesn’t disappoint.
Hotate Mentaiyaki @ RM13.80 Dengan sos cod roe dan I tak pasti sama ada dia grilled dengan keju atau tak memang yang ni la makanan laut yang sangat mencuri perhatiaan I ketika berada di Sushi Zanmai. Dalam dia ada scallop huu memang sangat teruja setiap kali kunyahan sebab kenyal kenyal juga, eh rasa nak makan ni lagi in the future.
For mains, we had Truffle Cream Pasta and Sous Vide Chicken with Abufeira Sauce (an additional top up of Rm 20 was required). The former one was good, the Pasta was beautifully cooked with al-dente texture and expertly coated in creamy, rich sauce. The Truffle flavor was apparent and bold, a pretty good Truffle-infused Pasta dish.
Singapore's Michelin-starred restaurant, Béni, first arrived in Malaysia in December 2019. Find out what we thought about the food here
Overall, it is just an average Japanese restaurant. You can't ask for more since this is the one and only ala-carte buffet style in Kuantan. It is easily be replaced if there is other Japanese restaurant with rather interesting recipe and fresher ingredients. Service wise, there are too many waiter or waitress idle and chatting. Either they are trying to avoid looking at the customers' table or they really didn't realized they are still working at that time. You will really have difficult time to get their attention especially when the restaurant is crowded.
