Food: Contempoary Sushi Shop.

At some point, I think there are many sushi shop open in the past decade.  It is all good to have bento box for the diner. But, things is change when chef introduce more contemporary sushi roll. It reflects some of the Japanese cuisine has change its direction. From the start of the regular sushi bar like Sushi Zen, Sushi Zenmai, Sushi Tei, and Sushi King. Certainly, people might not interested in the menu of Sushi King because it is not quite attractive anymore. The menu fail because of many reason: It doesn't have any special rolls and the sushi is not different from the past. Now, the Sushi Zrnmai and Sushi Zrn are the most popular Sushi shop in Mid Valley because both share the same concept of making improvement on rolls, rice noodles, chicken menu. So, this is the main attractiion in these two shop. The Sushi Zenmai has some different menu from Sushi Zen. The sushi ,emu has blend with some new creation of sushi into it like the Toro belly and Slightly Grilled Slamon sushi are the highlight of Sushi Zenmai. Anyway, I just visit Sushi Zen for a try.


When I first walk towards the entrance of the shop, it makes me feel unpleasant. If you are dining with a place especially in a mall, it should maintain certain standard. This is one of the bad exmaple of the shop. I really find that this shop has to make a change for its chair before their turn off their customer.


The Soft Shell Crab maki us really a simple roll to make. You need to deep fried the soft shell crab with some tempura flour. Then, sliced it into hald and put it into the sticky rice. The taste of the rice with the soft shell crab is incredible. Indeed, ithe rice is the magic here.


Everywhere you go in Japan, you can't miss their classical raw fish fillet. It is important to taste the fatty and fresh fish without the fishy flavor. I  think that only bad thing will happen is the fish is totally not fresh or it is just in the refrigerator for sometime. So far, this Sushi shop is quite alright. I can'y expect that it is really fresh from the ocean, but I  really taste some freshness in it.


Deep fried things like tempura is always easy to done. But, if the prawn is not fresh, you will still end up chewing something is soft and easily tear apart. Fortunately, I feel good about this King Prawn Roll. It is done nicely and nothing short in flavour. So simple, yet is a one of the roll that makes you feel joy..

Japanese cuisine is about fresh and preserve it in a good manner. Food wise, this shop is done a good job to lift up the standard. So often in a shop that is not really cares about their food or even just don't bother about the customer needs. I think this Sushi shop is really good for people who like Japanese food. I mught say that it is totally a place that has everything in it.
