Chelle's BurFday @ Ishin Japanese Dining

After reading Aly's food review on this place , I was dumbfounded to realize that there is yet another gemstone hidden along Old Klang Road!! Restaurant with good foods keeps popping out of nowhere along this familiar stretch~~~ I guess it's good new for food lover like me *yippie* ^~^

Hence when my dearest BFF, Chelle's BurfDay came, I suggested we patronized this fine Japanese Restaurant that serve Kaiseki style cuisines. When we arrived, the birthday gal fondly blurted " Eh, I never knew this is a restaurant, I always thought it's a showroom or something" ~~ ^-^"

















The restaurant occupy a rather small square feet but it's got a very soothing and relaxing aura to it~~ I would say it's a good place to chill & have a good meal after a hectic day at work~~













Eventhough we visited on a Monday, it's filled with quite a number of patrons but mostly in their working clothes~~~













A group pic with the Burfday gal in the middle~~













I don't need to comment much on the food 'cos a picture speaks a thousand words!! Have a look for yourself~~

















Teppanyaki Seafood Course~~

















that comes with Rice & Salad~~

















Tempura Moriawase~~Mixed tempura~~

















Sushi Pizza~~Chopped Salmon Topped Sushi Rice with Grilled Cheese~~













Hawaiian Roll~~Fried prawn wrapped with Mango~~~













Caterpillar Roll~~Soft shell crab wrapped Avocado roll~~
















After a hearty meal, it's the "sing-a-song-blow candle-cut cake" moment!!













The happy Burfday gal with her mini cake^~^

Nihon Kai

I was shocked when I read about this place from some foodies who apparently have nothing to say except great praises for this Japanese Restaurant, Nihon Kai which is located along Old Klang Road. I mean how could I never know about this restaurant after paving this road for countless times?????? Could I be that oblivious???However, after visiting this place, I realized it's not that I'm oblivious to the surrounding, it's just that it's tucked at the end of a row of shops that is NOT facing the main road.

Nevertheless, despite its location, it still managed to draw a huge crowds which signify real G~o~o~D food I assumed....I was warned that this place is usually packed especially on a weekend so it's advisable if you made booking prior to your visit.....Luckily, I went early on a Friday evening so we still managed to get a table without reservation but the tables were quickly filled up!!!!!

















My expectation shoot to the Moon while waiting for the food to be served~~

















Even though it occupied 2-storeys, I find the place rather un-spacious with tables neatly arranged next to each other.....We can actually eavesdrop the conversation going on at the next table but hey, being a virtuous being, I steered clear from it!! Well, my mind is more focused on the FOOD!!!!

















Highly recommended by the waitress~~Shake Sashimi Salada~~(RM15).....I love this^~^ It's highly recommended by me too!!

















Nihon Kai Maki~~(RM16)

















Nabeyaki Udon~~(RM15)

















Teppanyaki Beef~~(RM23)~~~The tender beef is great!!

















Ohhh~~ I'm so hungry while blogging about all this food!!!

Gemini 's Burfday Babies @ Jade Pot Dim Sum & Steamboat Restaurant, Old Klang RoaD

I'm supposed to blog about this post way back in May after celebrating 3 of my Gemini's colleagues' BirthDay~~~ Yeah, I know~~I'm lagging behind ^=^" Ok...Back to the celebration~~ This time around we had it at the newly-opened Jade Pot Dim Sum & Steamboat @ Old Klang Road...As the name suggested, they offer Dim Sum for breakfast&lunch and Steamboat for dinner~~There is another outlet at Desa Sri Hartamas as far as I knew....

Since it just opened its door, this restaurant was still brand new with real attentive staffs greeting us cordially at the entrance^~^













It opted for a classy contemporary Chinese decor unlike those traditional steamboat house....













I know, the food was real mouth-watering....hehehehe~~~













I like this cutie tea-pot, made the tea smells better!! Nah...I guess it's just that I'm a very visual person...^=^"













We opted for 2 different broths with 1 of them coming with YAMs!! My favourite~~ Both of it tastes refreshing!!













Ample of sauces&spices to choose from ^~^













We had chicken balls, meat balls, fish balls, crab balls etc etc etc~~













I guess they pay close attention to display 'cos this definitely expanded our appetite!!


















With purchase of above RM150, we get a free CRAB!!


















A HAPPY portrait^~^













1 of the Gemini's































Another joyous portrait~~













After much cam-whoring, we finally let the guys into our portrait~~hehehe..........













I would say the foods are good but it's quite pricey if u are looking for some affordable steamboat dining.....However, if u are looking for a good & cosy environment and don't mind spending a little bit more, you should give it a try^~^ By da way, it's located opposite The Pearl Point along Old Klang Road in the Newcom Club building~~
