Fukuharu @ The Terrace At Hock Choon's, Off Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur


It is amazing how nutrient is similar a span to connect us betwixt friends in addition to family, no affair what's their age. People seem to click when it comes to sharing a tabular array over a repast in addition to once the conversation starts on what's your favourite nutrient or place, it only rolls on and on....


Fukuharu seems to hold out the perfect setting for that scene with my friends - a identify they tin dismiss teach together -share stories (and perchance a teeny weeny flake of bitching, since we're no angels). Food hither is unproblematic in addition to unpretentious, while service is top-notch in addition to immensely personalised. Recently crowned best Japanese inward the 2010 Time Out Food Awards, the eating seat is garnering novel constitute fame.

The carte du jour covers a gamut of familiar Japanese items like sushi, sashimi, makis (including temaki), agemono (deep fried items), teppanyaki, yakimono (grilled items) and nabemono (hotpot dishes). There are equally good rice in addition to noodle dishes for carb lovers. If Japanese terms confuse you, only zoom inward on the blackboard menu, which notes downward novel items, popular favourites and sets to teach y'all started without you killing off your precious brain cells. A large must-have is their mentai sushi. Essentially a tamago (egg omelette) on perfectly formed sushi, what uplifts it to greatness is the layer of creamy cod roe (mentai) on tiptop that is scorched with a blow torch. The combination of the creamy topping pairs good with the soft textures of the egg in addition to rice.


Another peachy favourite alongside all of us is the eringgi yaki (RM14), a simple but satisfying dish of aromatic grilled sliced eringgi mushrooms. They are in addition to then addictively good, that a few friends orbit got been looking to recreate the same dish at home.  We equally good savor the aburi shiro maguro (RM32), pan seared butter fish tossed with crunchy onions in addition to a ponzu dressing. The ponzu in addition to spicy cod roe adds a tangy zing to the refreshing dish.


Every see seems to opened upwards up more favourites that orbit got us returning over again in addition to again. Take for instance, the Tanuki Soba (RM15). Innocently nestled inward uneven shaped bowls (I in addition to then wanted to steal i habitation but I did resist), the noodles looked a petty obviously in addition to frankly quite ordinary.  Mix all the ingredients to combine the flavours and slurp it down. You'll discover that the slight boot from the wasabi balances out the sugariness gustatory modality of  the sliced abura-age (deep fried tofu pouches) and the dipping sauce. It is equally good a bowl of textures as deep fried tempura bits laissez passer on squelch to the soft slippery soba strands. Julienned cucumber, crab sticks in addition to nori sheets circular upwards this wonderful nonetheless unproblematic dish that is at in i lawsuit a clear favourite of all of us.

There's equally good a touching of unusual, inward the rice coated prawns from a choice of mini kaiseki appetizers (RM35 for 3 persons) - rice granules that remind me of rice bubbles which coat the crunchy prawn that is deep fried. Also inward the appetizer platter, the mentai sushi, tuna sashimi cubes tossed inward wafu dressing in addition to salmon balls. We equally good sample the salmon shioyaki (RM28), juicy grilled salmon with salt.

We destination the repast with a bowl of comfort perfect for the soul - the niku tofu (RM26) a dashi broth laden with white cabbage, beef slices, onions, shiitake mushroom and silky soft tofu done sukiyaki style. On a previous occasion, nosotros had dined on tori yuzu shioyaki (RM30) - tabular array salt grilled chicken served with a yuzu paste. It is the same condiment that oftentimes appears inward Sage/Cilantro since it industrial plant in addition to then good with meats similar steak in addition to chicken - a petty similar mustard but in addition to then fifty-fifty improve since the flavours are a petty to a greater extent than mellow. Another peachy dish nosotros sampled earlier was the hotate kamameshi (RM36), the hearty tasting scallop clay pot rice topped with mount vegetables.  

There's likely to a greater extent than to explore inward the carte du jour but inward the meantime I'm perfectly happy with the selections I have tried. There's definitely a lot of middle put in the dishes hither in addition to prices are equally good kept reasonable to non pinch your pocket. Incidentally, the premises equally good houses an Illy Cafe, a perfect halt over for to a greater extent than conversations or only a caffeine jar to teach us going throughout the day.
