chirashi sushi
Strange.
It is going to come upwardly up to i twelvemonth since I first posted on Ju.Ne Japanese Restaurant at Solaris Dutamas.
I had ended terminal year's post service to order I'll last back.
Well, nosotros did furnish but non inward a Terminator fashion alongside guns blazing.
Instead visits to this house convey been peppered alongside a chorus of approvals from my friends.
This included a item friend who missed her regular hangout place, Kampachi at Equatorial Hotel since the hotel unopen down.
Love the hamachi here, as well as so fresh!
Everyone is of the consensus that the sashimi served hither is super fresh. A favourite social club is the hamachi sashimi (RM38 for vi pieces), each thick spell that nosotros piece of cake relish.
On to a greater extent than or less other occasion, nosotros sampled the assorted sashimi (RM48) that was a skillful mix of fresh fish on a bed of seaweed.
I'm ever partial to rice as well as sashimi thence I had the kaisen chirashi don (RM35) that comes inward a zen-like white bowl. It is a overnice assortment of raw fish such every bit ikura, prawns, salmon as well as cuttlefish.
negitoro yukke garlic toast
I practise similar their balanced menu, a mix of innovative appetizers served side yesteryear side alongside traditional Japanese favourites.
The garden salad dip alongside anchovy sauce (RM19) is a bully agency to teach you lot crunching downwardly on your greens. The fresh vegetables are kept cool on a bed of H2O ice as well as served alongside a creamy anchovy sauce kept warm over a burner. The sauce is as well as so addictive that you lot honor yourself unconsciously finishing all the vegetables on the platter only to scoop upwardly that moreish tasting item.
Another interesting salad is the tataki kyuuri momotaro (RM10), a mix of smashed upwardly Japanese cucumber as well as the sweetness Momotaro tomato plant alongside a cherry miso dip as well as mayonnaise.
minced prawn alongside lotus root
Multiple visits convey also allow us zoned inward on to a greater extent than or less favourites such every bit the negitoro yukke garlic toast (RM23). Think minced tuna tartar that is used to transcend crunchy sparse garlic toast. Yummy indeed.
Then in that location is the minced prawn alongside lotus rootage (RM19), an interesting stuffed fritter alongside lotus rootage that is served alongside greenish tea powder, tabular array salt as well as Japanese pepper.
torino shioyaki
We also relish crispy fried chicken or torino shioyaki (RM18) served alongside salt, cherry miso as well as deep-fried garlic pips. On to a greater extent than or less other occasion, the toro toro, a form of soupy beef stew (RM16) alongside tendons as well as potatoes was a large comfort to the tummy.
Some of the stalwart favourites such every bit saba shioyaki (RM17) is also done good here, juicy spell of fish that you lot swallow alongside grated daikon.
tataki kyuuri momotaro
Not everything hits the spot for us. Some of us felt the chanko nabe (RM64), the pot of vegetables cooked inward either a salt, soy or miso based broth was a flake strange. We had sampled the soy version as well as instead of the sweetness broth nosotros are used to for sukiyaki, this i has a slight bitter aftertaste.
Nevertheless, that pot makes an first-class i repast for 2-3 people every bit after you lot convey well-nigh finished, they add together either udon or rice to motility into inward a porridge or zousui, every bit it is called inward Japanese.
cold al dente cooked soba noodles
End the repast alongside a cool i - dipping soba noodles (RM13) inward the soy sauce. The texture of the noodles is perfectly al dente, that reminds me of Kampachi's exacting standards long ago. Even the soy sauce dip is a overnice residuum of salty flavours alongside the oestrus from the wasabi as well as the sliced shallots.
And yes, nosotros volition definitely last dorsum many to a greater extent than times. Not to only sample novel items but to revisit all those onetime favourites. Give it a crusade the adjacent fourth dimension you lot popular into the maze of the complex.
This house definitely qualifies every bit i of the improve Japanese restaurants inward town. And yes, in that location is a slew of Japanese men outfitted inward their suits eating away hither as well as so it has the expatriate crowd's postage stamp of approving too.
