With any restaurant review I’d usually start off with telling you about the appetizers and then go from there but I’m going to do it a bit differently this time because the dessert here was impressive! Not only did it look stunning… a work of art…   More »

I remember being in the Osaka train station and feeling rather bewildered. I just came from gorgeous Kyoto where the pace is a little languid, a smell-the-cherry-blossoms kind of place. And then suddenly stepping into Osaka- a crazy bustling metropolis,…   More »

Senjyu don't just serve the stereotypical Japanese food. Thanks to executive chef Ueda Toshihiro, their trademark dishes are more modern with the use of more 'prime' ingredients such as foie gras and wagyu beef. Throw in these two ingredients, you would…   More »

There is this Japanese restaurant that old Captain Cracker usually hang out in which is more refined than his tasty but grotty places. Thus he has no choice but to behave if he wants to eat here, because all the high class sailors park their nice yachts…   More »

When God created the world, He made sure that our palates were well taken care of. And He most certainly had a hand in the creation of one of the most loved cuisines of all time – Japanese food. Here in Malaysia, Japanese restaurants have been mushrooming…   More »

Japanese

The owner is from Taiwan, Korean kimchi is the starter, the mains are Japanese and the waiting staffs are local. Rich cosmopolitan mix or a mishmash of international confusion? With our rich melting pot of fusion cuisine as a fine example, Momotalo’s…   More »

If you fancy a bit of quiet Japanese whilst eavesdropping on Putrajaya gossip, Midori a comfortable and relaxed restaurant offers just that and more. Sashimi and sushi can probably be had anywhere- so what sets a Japanese restaurant apart are three main…   More »

This is a bustling little neighbourhood restaurant with a great feel to it. It's always buzzing with conversation and some of our friends even bring their Japanese clients here (for a bit of tie loosening and casual discussions)- so the food is up to…   More »
