Zen Japanese Restaurant, Sunway Pyramid

One of my first lunches in KL was this Japanese restaurant - Zen in Sunway Pyramid which Kiyaw and Crispy brought me to. If you're not familiar with the shopping center, this would be a challenging place to find. It is tucked in a corner which is only accessible via a hidden escalator on the outside :S :S

The restaurant faces the sun, and so the management thoughtfully shuts the curtains and we dined in absolute comfort :) They also give us thick wet towels once we sit down.

Start off with some fresh salmon sashimi. I shuddered at the thought of eating raw fish just 2 years ago, but now i can absolutely swallow the whole plate without getting the slightest tummy upset. Looks like i've trained myself well!

My sis always orders Edamame , a dish a Japanese peas boiled in water and lightly salted.

Some Japanese fried chicken? This was taken so long ago i couldn't remember what it was. Anyway, i hardly take fried food except KFC.... ! I suppose Ki yaw must've wiped this plate off :)

Ahhh...sushi! MmmmMmmm....although they don't look so nice in this photo, they are pretty tasty. Their vinegared rice for the sushi was very fragrant too, as i recall. Not too bad, can pass!

Our lunch was actually a set which came with side dishes like fruits and chawanmushi.

It also came with dipping sauces and mashed sweet potato ( or was it pumpkin)? Anyway, it was great having all these variety but we later discovered this meal is just not enough for the three of us.

And so, we ordered another extra sashimi salad for poor Ki Yaw to enjoy. Their sashimi salad is fresh and full of flavours, but still way behind if you compare to the one served by Sushi Tei.
