Ichiro Sushi Bar

I frequent this place as I find a lot of their food pretty good and bears some resemblence to what you could get in Japan.Sushi - really good (in Malaysia terms) whereby ingredients were fresh and the sushi you get at their RM98 set price point is really value for money. THE MOST IMPORTANT part is that the sushi rice is room temperature and not cold. How many sushi restaurants screw this up 😂.Red Miso Soup - has a robust taste, one of the better ones in Malaysia. (This doesn't compare to those in Japan though as it isn't very harmonizing with the other dishes and probably uses alot of ajinomoto)Chawanmushi - is also on another level whereby there are a few layers of taste, not just saltiness you usually find in many other japanese restaurants.Tempura Don - okay-ish, there's an overpowering oil taste to it and it really dampens the enjoyment of this dish, not recommended.Negitoro Don - is pretty good. Very fresh mince fatty tuna with spring onion and seaweed paired with warm japanese rice. Noticed they decided to use sushi rice for this dish which is awesome as it adds another layer of vinegar taste to this dish.Rolls - Not a big fan of their rolls in general though as I find there's an overuse of either cheese or mayo which completely destroys any other taste in the rolls.Salmon Sashimi Set - this lunch and dinner set is the most value for money. For 35 bucks you get 5 really thick cut salmon sashimi, rice, red miso soup, chawanmushi and fried salmon appetizer. Let me share a secret to bringing your rice and soup to the next level... mix some rice into your red miso soup and eat it that way, it's amazing.Recently the salmon sashimi size has shrunk a little and sometimes I end up with dry hard rice. They need to buck up else it's gonna spiral...

Another great Japanese place with fresh and authentic food. I remembered the long queue when I went there the first time with my BBFs. We wanted to order grilled salmon head but they were out of order so we had yellow tail instead. Both dragon roll and volcano roll were nice. The staff were also very attentive, friendly and polite. There is really nothing you can complain.
