edo ichi pizza alongside its unique rice pizza base
I'm a piddling (okay perhaps a lot) addicted to Japanese nutrient that I tin flame oft consume it on a daily basis. Reading a friend's facebook updates (they're currently inward Tokyo/Kyoto enjoying all the wonderful eats there) on a daily solid soil got me craving for some Nippon lovin', then here's a double dosage today - a weblog postal service on Edo Ichi, a novel house inward Solaris Dutamas as well as a Flickr update to the Nihonkai photograph set. For serious Japanese nutrient lovers, there's also my Flickr collection on Japanese food.
one field is never enough
Japanese nutrient seems to hold out a perennial favourite of KL-lites, whether it is mom-or-pop joints, Chinese oriented dwelling trouble solid trend eateries, ramen or fifty-fifty udon noodles cafes, chain places alongside sushi conveyor belts, fusion styled places with lashings of mayonnaise as well as cheese, izakaya joints for the sake and yakitori lover, and of course of written report classic Japanese which focuses on freshest ever seafood flown inward from Tokyo every Tuesdays as well as Fridays.
intersection of pizza base, sake bottles reserved for regulars, light-green tea for us instead
I'm non likewise certain which category Edo Ichi falls inward but i affair is definite, the nutrient is utterly delicious here. Edo Ichi is a pretty good known shout out around the Mont Kiara area, every bit the Chinese trouble solid unit of measurement owns the infamous condominium cafes inward Mont Kiara Pines as well as Vista Kiara. These cafes serve value-for-money eats that won't intermission your pocket. This to a greater extent than upscale house is supposedly owned yesteryear i of the trouble solid unit of measurement members.
steamed sake clams
One obvious house they choose modeled themselves after is Rakuzen, every bit the card is nearly identical inward looks as well as blueprint alongside the Rakuzen ones. Maybe that's the criterion blueprint template for all Japanese restaurants - super gorgeous pictures of nutrient that entice y'all to gild everything on the menu.
chilled spinach topped alongside sesame sauce
Our 2 visits hither peculiarly the terminal one, left us suitably impressed alongside this house to guarantee us revisiting it again. Since I was nonetheless feeling my agency around for the kickoff visit, nosotros had some hits as well as misses. I wanted a lighter tasting repast therefore it was a repertoire of classic dishes. To boot off the meal, it was horenso goma ee, chilled spinach topped alongside sesame sauce (RM9). While it was cool as well as refreshing, I felt the sauce was a piddling likewise watery as well as didn't choose much of a sesame taste. Probably this came from a bottle versus existence the sesame seeds existence grinded freshly to shape the sauce. Instead I was to a greater extent than impressed alongside the asari sakamushi (RM18) - stemmed brusk cervix clams alongside Japanese vino that produced a slurp-licious sweetness broth.
Edo ichi menu, una cheese gyre as well as milk shiver tataki roll
I've ever been partial towards onigiri aka rice balls peculiarly after I drooled over Oishinbo's descriptions therefore I was pretty excited to come across they served a diversity of them here. However, the mentaiko as well as grilled onigiri was dissapointing since the rice didn't gustatory modality hot as well as starchy. Splashie Boy's comfort nutrient is oft beef noodles similar the niku soba (RM25) - buckwheat noodles served alongside wafer sparse beef slices alongside a broth made from konbu seaweed.
slightly burnt edges makes the niku amiyaki precisely divine
Our instant see saw us hitting a dwelling trouble solid run alongside everything nosotros ordered. I enjoyed the gyuniku amiyaki (RM18) tremendously every bit the grilled beef slices came alongside caramelised bits on its side (gorgeous) as well as a smoky taste. The amiyaki sweetness sauce complemented it beautifully when it was hot (it got a chip sweetness when it turned cold). We also flora out y'all could mix 2 makis together (a one-half as well as half) then y'all larn to gustatory modality to a greater extent than choices. The waitress recommended us the una cheese gyre (RM28) as well as the milk shiver tataki gyre (RM28), their specialties. I enjoyed them both fifty-fifty though it did come upwards alongside cheese as well as mayonnaise, in all probability because just a dash is added to the whole ensemble. What I also liked was how they seem to brand the makis a piddling smaller alongside less rice, making it nice as well as plenty to stand upwards for into the rima oris at i seize alongside teeth (the existent agency to consume a maki) then I don't brand hold out expect similar a social moron.
For the ultimate, I fell inward dear alongside the edo ichi pizza (RM30) that came with eel as well as salmon toppings. The special pizza has an interesting base of operations - sushi rice compressed together, dusted alongside panko breadcrumbs as well as deep fried till crisp. It has a slightly soft texture alongside a compaction from the deep fried breadcrumbs. Just given a lick of mayonnaise, the pizza was topped alongside salmon as well as unagi slices, as well as a sprinkle of ebiko. Yummy till the terminal field which I piece of cake savoured.
Like an addict, the cravings started to hitting when I was editing these pictures as well as I reckon I'll need to revisit i time again to satisfy my Japanese cook hither every bit at that spot ain't such a affair called Japanese nutrient rehab.
