Go Sushi!

You are retired? Damn, you are such a lucky person. As much as money is not everything, money is definitely something. Imagine if you are craving for abalone or sharkfin but your wallet only has a penny.

Torturing isn’t it? That is exactly what I faced. I am not talking about the retirement part but the no money part. My wallet was kind of dried off at that time but I am craving for Japanese food.

Nike said “Just do it”. TikkoSS said just go for it! Go for what? Go for Go Sushi and worry about money later. What important is the companion rather than paper notes right? Not to forget , listen to what your belly’s whisper too.

I found this restaurant when I needed to send some documents using DHL. Yes.. it is just a few shop away from DHL. If you cannot find this restaurant, call for DHL hotline :P . Parking is normally not a big problem. The service is kind of fast too. Probably because I did not go during peak hours :)

Like I said, I need to watch out what I order or else I will end up washing the plates for one month to settle the bill.

So, I decided to order only few dishes this time. Just enough to ease my Sushi cravings. I ordered Inari Sushi RM 4.90, California Roll RM 5.90 and Norway Maki RM 16.90. Maybe I am too hungry but all the food that I ordered are just so yummie.

I am sure many will said, “TikkoSS, you only ordered few dishes. Enough meh?” Of course NO! I also ordered Tori Soba RM 16.80. Don’t ask me if the Soba is good as I only ordered to take photos. Hahaha. Nah… just kidding only.

With Ocha RM 2 as my drink, I only spent approximately RM 50 for this meal. Good or Bad? Cheap or Expensive?? Why not you determine yourself but personally I enjoy my time there!

Sushi Zanmai @ Sunway Pyramid

Have you been to Japan before? Japan is proly one of my dream countries beside United States. Why? I want to be the first to experience sunlight, country full with techy gadgets, Kawaii Japanese girls and not to forget their sushi too.. !

Why want to go so far to experience sushi when we have plenty of restaurants here that serve pretty decent sushi. Sushi Zanmai is one of it. Every single outlet has almost similar interior and this Sunway branch has no exception too.

Like usual, long queue, many customers but the service is very efficient. Of course like any other Japanese restaurant, you need to wait to be seated. Also, you have the option of sitting near the kaiten belt or normal dining table.

Enough talk on the atmosphere. Let’s check out what I ordered!

Today is a special day considering this is my first time in Sushi Zanmai. So, I decided to dry my wallet to get almost all the nicest dishes here.

I ordered Kinoko Butter Yaki (mixed mushroom), Chawanmushi and my all time favorite Kanpyo Maki and Oshinko Maki. The Kinoko is a combination of various steam mushrooms such as Enoki mushroom, shitake mushroom and White Clamshell Mushroom.. I hope I get the mushroom name right.

The Chawan Mush is slightly special as one of the ingredients is prawn instead of common crabsticks. And Kanpyo Maki and Oshinko Maki are actually “pickles” rolls. Love it so much. Never disappoint me.

Those are just the starter. I then ordered Hotate Teriyaki, Soft Shell Crab Maki, Hana Salmon Maki and Salmon Belly Roll. Surprisingly the hotate teriyaki is a bit dry but the soft shell crab maki is as good as Sushi King.

The Hana Maki Salmon is slightly different from Hana Maki that I tried in Sakae Sushi. In sakae sushi the topping is mayonnaise but over here is served with fish roe. If you like Salmon Belly Roll, go to Sushi Zanmai now because this is a promotional dish for limited time only.

Is that all?

Of course not! Later I ordered, Cha Soba and Dai Dai Roll. Ok, Cha Soba is very new to me. So, I let my friend to have the honor to show me how to eat this. Generally, just dip and stir the cold green tea noodle in the soup provided before you eat it. Isn’t that simple? Silly me.

The Dai Dai role has nothing special but I just like the freshness taste of salmon. Love this dish. Hehe.

Lastly, the dessert! I ordered Macha Monaka and Itachoco Monaka. It is very special indeed. Vanilla or Green Tea ice cream wrap with waffle. Ohh there is a thin layer of chocolate in it too and this makes every single bite is just so deliciously yummy.  

How come the sad part, the bill. I spent about RM 115 for this meal. Expensive or not? I will let you all to decide. Personally, I think the price is reasonable because the awesome taste of every single dish just make this meal worth the money.

Now I officially categorize Sushi Zanmai as my all time favorite Sushi Restaurant in Malaysia. You should try it too!

Buka Puasa @ Gabo Chit Chat

“Puasa” or fasting is a common culture among Islam in Ramadhan month. It is an act of refraning from all food and drinks before sunrise (sahur) till sunset (buka puasa). Puasa will last for a period of one month before celebrating Hari Raya Aidilfitri on 1st of Syawal. I always amaze with all Muslims that can manage to control themselves to reflect how fortunate they are and in remembrance of all that are less fortunate.

In this month, most of the companies will organize a “Buka Puasa” Dinner to all staffs including non Muslim staffs. This year, my company decided to organize at Gabo Chit Chat @ Traders Hotel, KL.  Traders Hotel is located about 5 min walk from KLCC. A buggy service is provided to those who resides at Traders Hotel.

I was invited to this dinner and I brought along my IXUS 60 to snap some photos so that I can share with you. I arrived at about 1830 hrs, just the right timing to get a nice seat before the place get crowded. Although the break fast is about 1920 hrs, people continue to fill up the empty tables.

Most of the food are freshly prepare. What I like about this place is I get to see how the chef prepare the food (er.. I can steal some receipe and skills too .. hehe). You can even request for the dishes you like and he is ready to prepare for you. Hot from the pan !

There are variety of food starting from traditional Malay Ulam Sambal Belacan (green vegetables with chili paste), chinese dim sum, grilled and fried dishes, western food, japanese food and fresh seafood such as oyster, prawns, scallops, mussels and many more. The cheese corner is very tempting too.  The queue started to grow longer when it is about time for break fast. So better get ready with your food before that.

If you are dieting, try skip it while you are here. All the foods are tempting and delicious. How can you ever think of dieting? Just try to make the fullest out of it. That is why, I ended up eating a lot of food that night. More like I tried one of each and I still cannot finish all.  

Please make sure you spare some of your stomach space for desserts too. I can tell you, the desserts are ranging from sweet, sour, spicy, salty to bitter, from traditional malay, chinese to western and from fruits, cakes, chocolate to pastries. The WOW sensation is there when you see them. I am sure you are going to love them. 

For the Ramadhan month, Traders Hotel has special promotion for Buka Puasa Dinner. They only charge about RM 92 nett per person. You might think that it is pricy but considering the variety of quality food and the ambience, I am sure you will change your mind when you are there. Few weeks left before Syawal, so grab your chance to try it there !
