Edo Ichi is kind of a luxury japanese restaurant. Though, i think they serve sorta bigger portion than Sakae Sushi and have better service.
It is so pack that we can’t get a table and have to sit at Sushi bar but better than waiting, the sushi bar is not small either it has great depth that enough to place a few plate so it still very comfort. Great environment with dim light and a big aquarium with sea water fish in it.
Next, we tried Edo Ichi’s Soft Shell Crab and Salmon Skin salad (RM18). This salad comes with a heavenly sesame dressing that left me wanting more! I love Asian style dressings so much more than regular mayo or Thousand Island.
Sushi Ya offers Sushi at RM1.90 and RM2.90. Due to the relatively low price, it's quite popular among residents in Jelutong. It was crowded during my visit. However, the sashimi they served are not really that fresh. You can see from the maguro sushi below. I guess this is a trade-off for the price. Well, if you're not into raw fish, this might be a good place for you to have economical sushi.
Lovers of Sushi, Maki and Nigiri might be glad to know or not that Sushi Ya has opened a new outlet in Penang island. The brand is well-established at Raja Uda and is known for its economical offering. Many budget eaters flocked the place when it was first opened; the new branch at Straits Garden, Jelutong is highly visible from the bustling Jelutong Street. But how economical is economical, you wondered? The items run on the Sushi Belt are priced either at Rm 1.90 (for pink plates) and Rm 2.90 (for red plates); while those on the menu are priced relatively lower than most Japanese restaurants in town. The trade off is of course the quality, which equates to the prices- cheap. Oddly, though the prices seem cheap, the final bill came to (4) us was slightly over Rm 150 (plus surcharges). There was no satisfaction at all; unless required, we do not see ourselves patronizing the place in the future.
Here's the location.
The only thing I could compliment was the texture of the Sushi Rice... which surprisingly alright.
If you’re a fan of sashimi, you can enjoy feasting on Norwegian Salmon, freshly air-flown to the outlet.
The Salmon Kabuto Shioyaki is another dish which capture my attention. The delicious salmon delights where the salmon is perfectly grilled with salt. The hint of light saltiness combined with the light char taste is just so good that I am totally in love with it.
Sushi Ya (寿司屋) is a new chain of Japanese restaurants in Penang and Kedah.
SUSHI YA RAJA UDA - Curry Ramen - just nice...not too sweet or not too spicy.
Sushi YA Raja Uda Curry Rice.....Yummy...Yummy.
烤kamo(鸭)，鸭肉包住cherry tomato，很香。。。 放进嘴里，不要直接咬，关着嘴巴5-10秒钟，你会嗅到那种烧烤味，咬下去那个tomato，跟拿鸭肉混在一起，可能小偏想烧烤想到疯了，感觉直接带我飞上青天～～
Previously a chef at Miraku, Chef Takahiro Kinoshita and his wife opens their own restaurant at Vantage. Here's the location. Please call to make reservation before you visit during the weekends.
To sum it up, this is a good authentic Japanese restaurant which I will definitely pay them another visit for their set lunch menu (They serve ala carte during dinner). I give this restaurant extra points because they serve 100% authentic Japanese instead of commercialised fusion food.
Cheap and Good!
We like the Tobikko Gunkan... generously topped Tobikko Sushi that has more Tobikko than Sushi rice, a pop of ocean sweetness in the mouth.
Nigiri Sushi Sakura, a sushi platter that comes with raw fish slice over pressed vinegared rice is a real bargain with RM 38. The sushi was no doubt fresh but the rice preparation was sloppy - the rice could not hold well as one and did not stick together, and it fall into pieces the moment we try to pick it up. Everything is alright other than above factor.
We were never a fan of Soba but the Green Tea Noodles with Tempura (RM 36) here totally changed our perception. Served cold, the green tea noodles are to be dunked into the soba tsuyu that gives it a light sweet taste. The tempura served was delicious and coated with a very thin layer of dough, rendering us can taste the filling directly.
We were dismayed by the presentation, not only they looked completely different from the menu (well we do understand that pictures are for illustration only), the taste was not up to par. The Tuna Sashimi on the Chirashi Don was appalling, as though it was leftover from somewhere else
Sushi King Express at Golden Triangle, Bayan Lepas, Penang is just a small place with few seating place but the environment here is good.
This branch of Sushi Express serves mostly sushi and less variety of other types of food compared to the ordinary Sushi King branch. Well, people are normally here for the sushi. All sushi here are served at RM3.00 (RM3.18 including GST).
Taste it value set of Kimchi Ramen.
...
It’s definitely a fun experience that you won’t want to miss out on. Itadakimasu, foodies!
A newly open Japanese Cuisine Restaurant at Butterworth Business City Centre.
On Ramen, we had both Akamaru Ramen and Kyushu Ramen; the former option comes with a spicy punch... the spicy-savory combo that any Malaysians would fell in love with
