Kinsahi Japanese Restaurant

This is the only other Jap restaurant there besides Sakae Sushi andI guess it originated from Johor, looking at the list of their other outlets. The interior of the restaurant was fashioned in a rather sombre mood, with dark walls and white japanese verses imprinted. There were some diaphanous drapes hanging from corners and the whole deco looked almost like a harem in some dubious Arabian scene. The chairs had very high backs, quite un-japanese, I must say.

When we were seated, a bowl of cubed vege tossed in mayonnaise was served to us, as appetizer. We didn’t order that – it was like those peanuts they serve you in Chinese restaurants and then charge you RM2 for it. But for the small plate (like 5” diameter plate), we were charged RM5! It’s a rip-off – the “Egg Wasabi Mayo” was bland, except for the tinge of wasabi.

The Futo Maki Udon Set @ RM18 came with 4 pcs of Futomaki, a small dish of Guava salad and a small bowl of Soup Udon. The futomaki was just passable, the Guava slices rolled in mayo was over-ripe and the udon was miserable. The soup tasted bland and there were only 1 slice of Japanese fishcake and a few pieces of seaweed floating in it. The udon was not soft enough.
