Japanese Suishin

There's no lack of Japanese restaurants in Mont Kiara, but Suishin is still a welcome addition, with a menu that offers something for everyone.

We zeroed in on several yakitori items during a supper stop here. The skewered chicken skin proved to be crisp and sinfully fatty.

Chicken with fish roe & fried egg strips. The meat was tender and seemed well-marinated, though the roe made little difference.

Chicken tail. Had a pleasantly smoky taste and a fragrant aroma.

Sashimi in chef's sauce. Probably not the best way to savour the clean flavours of the raw fish, since the sourish sauce was rather overpowering.

Amberjack head. Superbly meaty, satisfyingly succulent flesh.

Gavi di Gavi Italian white.

Stop here for a quick bite if you're in the mood for sandwiches or pasta.

Portuguese Chicken in foccacia. Tender meat, slathered in a sweet, mayo-like sauce. All the bread here tastes fresh and light, maybe since it's made in-house.

Barcelona Fish spaghetti. A slightly spicy, passable pasta. Decently prepared.

Viennese Baguette with margarine & sugar. Simple but addictive.

Coffee & Ice Blended Vanilla.
