Japanese Buffet - Shogun

[kokomo]

Went to 1Utama there .. went to new wing area. Saw tis new restaurant open, finally a nice environment japanese buffet in 1U. Price is reasonable but believe it was cheaper than wat i saw earlier cos there is a note stating there is a revise on pricing plus another revise pricing for valentine's day.

Normal price now is RM43++ but on Valentine's day will be RM55++. So peeps, is this price reasonably cheap or average or jz darn expensive. I think if we eat there than in Genki or Sushi King .. those place we will be spending more than wat we're spending here plus we can hv unlimited sushi n sashimi .. :D

Anyone has already tried this place , care to pass your comment in herE? How's the sushi? Fresh anot? I saw a lot of ppl there .. buffet lining very nice! :)

yea yea i wanna know too... but i've tried other buffet outlets like saisaki in KL @ wisma UOA... wanna know how does it stack up compared to it ;)

[kokomo]

Someone told me that tis Shogun is open by sasaki also but then i dun think so .. cos if open by them then might as well name is sasaki instead of shogun .. right?

anyway, now not the right time to go there try it la .. hv to wait till end of month .. oni can .. :o

[youngteenguy]

haha yeap yeaps but why end of the month ? why not after v'day? ahha

[kokomo]

aiya .. of cos hv to be end of the month leh .. gaji keluar ma!~ :D

by then, go eat also shiok abit la .. :p

[youngteenguy]

aiya .. of cos hv to be end of the month leh .. gaji keluar ma!~ :D

by then, go eat also shiok abit la .. :p

ahah yea your right lol.... read some blogs about this shogun place. it IS opened by the same guy who owns saisaki in KL... hmmm i think should be good la eheh

[kokomo]

yea, maybe after today u can go try tis place then come back n let me know if its good .. hehe .. :cool:

[jand]

I was there on the third day of CNY and I gotta say that the sashimi there wasn't too fresh.. but since i was there only once, can't say if i was just plain unlucky or their QC there is bad. Kampachi still best for sashimi.

As for variety, there are more compared to Kampachi and some of their fried stuff is quite nice.

[kokomo]

Wow .. thanks for d note here .. will know what to eat next time if happen to go in there n try .. ;)

[ooice]

Was there 3 weeks ago. Food is ok if compare by japanese buffet standard. Same as Saisaki, there r also some non-japanese food such as local fried noodles, asam prawn, kimchi, etc. However as per normal Malaysia kiasu spirit, the unagi and tempura prawn will always be empty, being grabbed by ever-hungry Malaysian.

If you want really fresh and nice japanese food, Sugimoto, Kampachi or Nippon Tei still fare better.

[kokomo]

thanks for d tip here ooice .. i guess ppl are there also cos of the nice environment n nice buffet setting .. makes ppl feel comfortable ..

hmm .. i wonder if they hv gyoza or not?!?! :rolleyes:

[wAISEKMAo]

Actually I was there the first week it opened. The owner is the same guy as saisaki's. I was there again sometime before chinese new year.

In both occasions, the sashimi are not very fresh. Furthermore, as i can remember..there are less choice of sashimi fish as compared to saisaki's.

On my first trip there, I remember there is this ginseng soup with one small chicken on each bowl. Then on my second visit, the menu change to porridge with chicken or dove (the porridge is sux). dunno now..do you guys know?

[kokomo]

i wonder if tis goes on .. will their customer still remain there arh? :confused:

[youngteenguy]

ahahah kokomo,i was tehre the day after v'day... and i got to tell you this place is good! my gf liked it la being patrons of saisaki and shogun. i think i will visit shogun again :) it's a higher class saisaki kinda more furnished. more variaty comparativly so thumbs up for shogun

[kokomo]

haha .. really that good arh? but some say that the sashimi there not so fresh wor .. what u had there youngteenguy?

[youngteenguy]

oh yea forgot about that.the day i went the salmon wasn't that fresh la but then again it's a buffet so can't really expect all of it to be perfect ;) the shasimi was alright. i tried the rolls there there were Good... there is also a soup section which was different from saisaki. there were sharks fin soup, mushroom and a few other variety... impressive i would say. that's all for now ... ciows

[kokomo]

thanks for d update youngteenguy! now i can't wait to go try it myself lah .. not to mention that there is a shark fin's soup also ... hmmm .. do u think it's pure? :confused:

[boo_licious]

Aiks, if not fresh then better not go or else get tummy ache.

I had Jap buffet last weekend at Jogoya in Starhill. Very nice and sashimi is fresh - they even have scallop sashimi. Lots of selections until you get lost in the place. Free flow juices, coffee and Movenpick ice cream (like the ones you get at Marche). Bit pricier than Shogun as the price range is RM68 to RM78++ depending on what time u go.

[kokomo]

Joyoga is it like air asia arh? hehe .. diff times u booked da tickets it will be either cheaper or more expensive! :eek:

Dunno if any of u seen a pic of a japanese guy in japan that has maggots in his brains there cos of eating too much of sushi & sashimi? :eek: so if sushi / sashimi not so fresh better stay away from it orh ..

[youngteenguy]

hahaha no la fake wan la with those crab sticks you get at carefour lo but it's nice la ;)

[leewinnie46]

want to eat pure shark fin soup ah..... go seafood store lah but during weekend woh cause not much ppl go during weekday

i 've been to sitiawan - Ah Bu restaurant last week, i order 4 crab (ham tan choy hai), 1 kg of prawn (butter cook), 1 big bowl of shark fin (the crab meat is so fresh with shark fin, a bunch of small fin) cost RM95.00

shogun - not dare to try weekday but see more crowd during weekend, per head RM43, husband, myself and maid.....RM43 x 3, how much it cost for below 4 years old ?

[wAISEKMAo]

.....RM43 x 3, how much it cost for below 4 years old ?

I think yrs 3 -12 is RM 25.00.

[kokomo]

GO until sitiawan to eat seafood? anyway, those places are alwiz cheaper than town here ...

Wow :eek: shogun charge age 3-12 yrs old $25 arh? hell of expensive man ..

[leewinnie46]

2 days ago, went esquire kitchen and saw the crowded restaurant with a lot of teenage or after work ppl (some look so tired and with more homework), i sit next to them which is outside of esquire kitchen, i order ko lou yoke, chong yau tao fr, you cham sek pan, a dish of veggie , it cost RM73......whereby ppl from shogun stare at else while we eat n my kids stare at them while they eat..... i bunch of ppl later come out n eat at esquire kitchen again.... their appetide is simply good after month end

[blastmeister]

haha .. really that good arh? but some say that the sashimi there not so fresh wor .. what u had there youngteenguy?
will be goin there coming friday.....some celebration. i hope your guys comment really works. I dun want to end up disappointed with the food, especially the sashimi and sushi.

Saisaki food quality is dropping compare in late 90's. I was a regular patron (i work near there) but recent years, i saw the standard is dropping. Hard to get fresh food there.

Kampachi still the no.1. I m waiting for some restaurant to beat Kampachi but nontheless, can't find 1.

[kookee]

Hullo,

For fine Japanese dining, suggest Rakuzen. Got 2 branches, one in Chulan Square and one in Subang Jaya, don't know SS??. Just a bit further off from the traffic lite turning to SJMC, on the left hand side. If I'm not mistaken, there's a bank next door to it. Maybe hard to spot during nite time, blink and you miss it. Reservation required, place always pack full full.

[SunwayKid]

......Kampachi still the no.1. I m waiting for some restaurant to beat Kampachi but nontheless, can't find 1.

Have tried Kampachi but believe PJ Hilton Genki and Pan Pacific Glenmarie (now different name) are comparable, if not better in terms of quality. The joint in Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel was a great disappointment. Am just talking about the buffet, which I can only afford.....not the ala carte.

[SunwayKid]

..........For fine Japanese dining, suggest Rakuzen. Got 2 branches, one in Chulan Square and one in Subang Jaya, don't know SS??. .

There's another joint in Sunway Pyramid, on top of Kim Gary, opposite Coca, same chain, but different name....Zen. Food there is approx. 20% cheaper compared to the joint opposite SJMC. They serve only ala carte though.

[kokomo]

Yeah, heard from my friend that Zen is a nice place as well .. any recommendation on menu there?

[suleenelena]

Tasted the food there very nice beef teriaki!

[SunwayKid]

Yeah, heard from my friend that Zen is a nice place as well .. any recommendation on menu there?

Like Su said, beef teriyaki is not bad.....just had it on Monday. Cod fish set is good (RM28 in Zen, RM38 in Rakuzen) and the noodles also yummy......especially the one with the scallop. Japanese curry rice (less than RM20) also ok. The set meals are good deals.....and the ala carte is more authentic Japanese taste.

Sushi and sashimi are good as well......but expect to pay a premium over Genki Sushi or Sushi King price!

[suleenelena]

sunway kid, r u a regular at that place?

[kokomo]

Guys, is japanese curry really that nice arh? If am eatin' japanese food, i dun really prefer to hv curry here n there lor .. i feel kinda weird wif it ..

[suleenelena]

jap curries are sweet. not hot kokomo

[kokomo]

that's the thing .. all tis while i've been having hot curry , hot stuff n not those sweet japanese curry .. feel very fake la ..

Like tis i guess i'll jz stick to ori hot curry be it from thailand, india & m'sia ... ehehe ,,

[suleenelena]

Then when u go n makan jap buffet u dont touch the green curry?

[SunwayKid]

sunway kid, r u a regular at that place?

Su....I only eat there when I can afford it......normally beginning of the month when the pay packet is still fat! Nearing month end, it will only be instant noodles! :)

Kokomo....when you share Japanese curry with your partner, sure shiok one. After that, both mouth will be very sweet! :D

[suleenelena]

NO use telling kokomo about sharing things. He will have ot all to himself.

[kokomo]

Ok ok, next round i'll share wif u suleen ... make u sweet like me as well ..

Seriously wheneva i go japanese buffer i won't take those curry stuff onee .... not my type of curry that i wanna consume ..

[suleenelena]

ewww.... i think i will pass on the jap curry period!

[kokomo]

finally suleen shares the same idea as me .. :)

glad i made that right choice .. :cool:

[suleenelena]

i mean sharing the food with u kokomo.

[kokomo]

C'mon su ... it's a japanese buffet ... go get your own food .. if ala cart then i dun mind sharin' la .. keke .. :p

[suleenelena]

Thats wat i'm afraid of! u eatting off my plate when its ala carte. SOrry! get your own food!

[jantzen]

hi, i was introduce by a lawyer on this restaurant. feel like going to try... do u think worth to try? just wanna to ask you, they have "sang hou" & fresh salmon sashimi?





Went to 1Utama there .. went to new wing area. Saw tis new restaurant open, finally a nice environment japanese buffet in 1U. Price is reasonable but believe it was cheaper than wat i saw earlier cos there is a note stating there is a revise on pricing plus another revise pricing for valentine's day.

Normal price now is RM43++ but on Valentine's day will be RM55++. So peeps, is this price reasonably cheap or average or jz darn expensive. I think if we eat there than in Genki or Sushi King .. those place we will be spending more than wat we're spending here plus we can hv unlimited sushi n sashimi .. :D

Anyone has already tried this place , care to pass your comment in herE? How's the sushi? Fresh anot? I saw a lot of ppl there .. buffet lining very nice! :)

[kokomo]

hi, i was introduce by a lawyer on this restaurant. feel like going to try... do u think worth to try? just wanna to ask you, they have "sang hou" & fresh salmon sashimi?

normally if japanese buffet surely got those fresh salmon sashimi n "sang hou". But tis place i hv yet to try la .. if u go there then u let me know got all these anot lor .. :)

[smoothead]

Was at I Utama on Saturday evening. Came across this long line of people queing. Went to kaypo, and quess what, they were lining up for the Shogun buffet. Actually, I wanted to try the buffet and didn't know the restaurant's location and was looking for it and this was when I saw the queue. Had to give it a miss this time around. Didn't know it was this popular.

[suleenelena]

How much is the buffet? mmm must try one day. kokomo , u up for it?

[kokomo]

Yepz, most definitely since i've heard so much n seen so many ppl going for it .. price wise it would be around RM55 I think but then again since the hike of the price of petrol .. it might jz goes up summore ..

smoothead, if you went there n try faster than me .. do let me know bout your comment in here ya ..

[SunwayKid]

Anyone tried Jogoya in Starhill.............any reviews?

[KakiLang]

I was there at Shogun last week for lunch. The sashimi was not very fresh but acceptable, other food was so so only. The buffet didn't serve any "sang hou" but instead each customer was table-served a cheese baked "sang hou" which was not fresh... ;)

[kokomo]

So Kakilang .. your overall review on this Shogun ain't worth the money there is it? B'cos most of the things there not fresh? Service? Good or not good?

If sashimi ain't fresh then nothing is good there oledi .. cos japanese food most particular is freshness of sashimi ..

I guess now hv to start lookin' for else place to go for sashimi .. :rolleyes:

[suleenelena]

The best sashimi i have tried was at equitorial. Kampachi has the best jap food ever! :D

[kokomo]

You guys should try Nikko Hotel there. Their sashimi and oyster damn fresh .. but pricey as well. At least to me :eek:

[KakiLang]

I guess now hv to start lookin' for else place to go for sashimi .. :rolleyes:

The rest of the food (Chinese & Korean food) is ok there except sashimi, and service is quite good. If u r looking for quality/fresh sashimi, I wud suggest u to try out those Japanese restaurants at the hotels such as Keyaki at Pan Pacific Glenmarie, Kampachi at Equatorial or Eyuzu at Eastin. All these serve Japanese buffet in the weekend. Of coz u gotta pay more compare to Shogun.

I hv yet to try out Eyuzu but heard good review from a friend. Maybe some forumers wud like to share their reviews here... ;) :cool:

[SunwayKid]

Yeah....Keyaki at Pan Pac Glenmarie is good. It is one of the few places where one get to enjoy yellow tail. It is now under different management (the hotel) - not sure, whether the restaurant standard is still the same.

Another place where you can go is Genki in PJ Hilton. No yellow tails though but plenty of other sashimi, soft shell crabs and more authentic Japanese food.

Will be trying Jogoya when I get my pay cheque this month......... :)

[suleenelena]

SUNWAYKID, tell me if Jogoya is really.. Then i will go next on my jap indulgence

[SunwayKid]

No problem Su......but prices increase by RM10 per head from April 1 woh.......

[suleenelena]

It does not matter . Good food is more important. The quality of the food that am paying for it.Embience is nice there? i seldom go to starhill :p

[kokomo]

Pass by Joyoga before. Ambience is great! But I think for me, hv to wait for my bonus day only get to go there. :o

[suleenelena]

BUt i know all the makan in starhill tak boleh pakai like the fisherman warth rest? Is it called that? Anyway was there for coffee and all I look at the menu with my mom and said this place is a rip off!

[SunwayKid]

Sureornot..............

Like that, better share the risk. Su...you pay 50% of the buffet charge and I sacrifice myself to be the scapegoat and try the food! Deal? :)

Kokomo - you save for 14 days, eat instant noodles....sure got enough to pay for the ambience mah. :D

[suleenelena]

Kokomo better keep on eating his instant noodles . :D Cos the rate he is going to have is much higher then anywhere else. Sunway kid y don't u go there n try first? IF its so good as u say then call me i will come with my bf n join u. :p

[SunwayKid]

....... IF its so good as u say then call me i will come with my bf n join u. :p

Su...you break so many hearts with that one statement woh. Maybe, should transfer to the MCA Cupid thread. :D

I never try before lah, how to know whether goodornot. Just managed to save enough to go and try now. :) Will let everyone know whether good, bad or lousy once I have enough courage (& money) to step into that place!

[suleenelena]

sorry la... heheheh But for me if i see if there r loads of poeple then that place is worth trying out if like nonone and yeah u look at the ambience and the menu , u will be tricked in to it. Unless there are comments about that place and the same people keeps coming back to that particular rest. Then i will go n try next round. ;)

[kokomo]

After going there, i think instant noodle also i cannot eat la .. hv to wait for another month b4 i can afford to buy instant noodle. :(

Ok'lah, su & sunwaykid can belanja me .. can? :D i'll be your food tester then both of u share the cost. :cool:

[kokomo]

So far, i notice only that korean rest. & that chinese dim sum rest got a lot of ppl there .. other than that .. all quiet as it is wif their ambience.

[SunwayKid]

kokomo...tell you what...you go and try first, with your own money, when you come back and can't afford instant noodles, Su and myself will share the cost and each sponsor you 5 packets ($2.39) of Instant Noodles each. 10 packets you sure can eat song song. :)

Why you go there so often, if not to patronise the outlets!?, until got people, no people, also know, got ambience, no ambience, also can tell. Surely, food, goodornot, you sure know one. :D

[kokomo]

I din go there often SunwayKid. Only went there once and that's all I need to know and I can tell you most of it. Place there nothing much to c so basically you can scout the whole area.

[KakiLang]

So who will be the 1st one here to check out the food at Jogoya??

I also like to go there & try out the food one of these days...but gotta find out how much $ left in my wallet at the end of the month first.. :D

[kokomo]

Just managed to save enough to go and try now. :) Will let everyone know whether good, bad or lousy once I have enough courage (& money) to step into that place!

KakiLang, there goes your answer. If you like then maybe you can PM SunwayKid to go there venture it together and come back tell us the result here. ;)

[KakiLang]

If u wanna save abit of $ then go for late lunch session, $68 weekday 1:40pm to 4:20pm, weekend 2pm to 4:20pm, others r $78 and $88 for lunch/supper and dinner..

Sunwaykid, if u decided to visit Jogoya....starve urself in the morning, skip breakfast & lunch, go there for late lunch, then u can get ur $ worth at the place..hehe :D :D

[SunwayKid]

......starve urself in the morning, skip breakfast & lunch, go there for late lunch, then u can get ur $ worth at the place..hehe :D :D

Skip breakfast and lunch......oledi no energy to reach there and no strength to lift spoon to eat. Somemore, if Kokomo caught me eating alone, paiseh..... :)

[suleenelena]

sunway kid u wont be alone whoe knows kokomo could be there already having all the jap food to himself. Y dont kakilang, kokomo and you pm one another n meet there n makan together, sigh* saves us alot on talking about it here rather seeing who will be going first. :rolleyes:

[SunwayKid]

I found these reviews in a food review forum, which caught my attention. Of course it will be more reliable, if one of us actually patronise the place.

" tried in on valentines's day. Full house but food was sufficient. quality and selection is best so far. better than even kampachi or hilton jap buffet. they've got this soup which everyone took but i only found out after having my fill. looked interesting. the bowl made of paper. other things is you can get whole fishes such as bawal, trout?, etc. free flor of juices, coconut whole, chinese tea, green tea, coffee, movenpick ice cream. For main course, they've got everything and more than you'll likely see elsewhere. So go try it at least once and see. definately value for money but the 100rm/per person means you can't go every week. "

"It's more like a Seafood Buffet. Oysters, Snails, Fish, Sushis, Sashimis... lotsa varieties and try it out if you haven't...it's definitely worth to try..:)"

Disclaimer - these reviews are NOT written by me.

SunwayKid, if you pay for my bill then I'll consider going there wif u .. hehe .. I'll be your date u won't forget :eek:

Purpose of this is to get recommendation from nice places that we've been to spread the news around so that others get to enjoy what we had ma.

[SunwayKid]

............if you pay for my bill then I'll consider going there wif u .. hehe .. I'll be your date u won't forget :eek:

OK....I will think about it as your objective appears to be sincere. :)

Oh....will let you know next year as it will probably take me that long to save for another pax. :D

[kokomo]

Take your time, probably by then there are more and new exciting sushi stations around.

HMmm .. if am not mistaken I think there is a sushi place named Sushi Station but can't really recall where is the place. Anyone here can help me out on this? :confused:

Kokomo, the Sushi Station is at Sungai Wang mah.... :D

[suleenelena]

Is it any good? where in sungai wang?

[kokomo]

Kokomo, the Sushi Station is at Sungai Wang mah.... :D

KakiLang, have you tried this Sushi Station arh? How's the price range and freshness of sashimi? I pass by Sungai Wang so many times but still dun see this Sushi Station around also.

Where is it exactly arh? :confused:

[SunwayKid]

It's on the 6th floor....Sushi station I mean. The 6th floor caters mainly to young crowd, so don't expect anything fancy. Food - so, so only.

You need to go up to the IT centre on the 3rd floor in Sq Wang and then take the stairs up or park at the rooftop and walk across. Alternatively, take the lifts up.

:eek: That's too far for an old man like me to go up. I will definitely look weird if I'm here eatin' among those young punks .. :o

[SunwayKid]

Some of them wear yellow pants with purple shirt and blonde hair (guys I mean) .......aiseh, see already, lose appetite before eating and indigestion, if after eating.

[KakiLang]

Ya, it is on the 6th floor, same floor as Redbox karaoke. I walked pass there a couple of times but hv never stepped in.....It doesn't look authenthic to me... :cool:

[kokomo]

Ermmm .. SunwayKid , how you know so well arh? U alwiz hang out there arh? Were u in their group before arh? hehe ..

Anyway, I guess I'll drop the idea of going to Sushi Station

[suleenelena]

That sushi station kokomo u should know. Sunway kid u also dont have to hide your true personality. kokomo u better come out of your true shell ok? :D If i see anyone of u or my frens there i will turn away straight!

[kokomo]

su, do u think im carryin' my soft shell crab arh? Aiseh, dun waste time la .. you won't c me around there. In fact you n SunwayKid seems to be a regular there. Knows all this kinda places damn well .. hehe .. :p

[suleenelena]

sunway kid seems to know all the good makan place upmarket place to eat ok not me.. I think he has another shell he does not want to tell.. :p

[kokomo]

up market ka, down market ka, dry market / wet market .. most probably this coming sunday i'll be going to shogun to check out the place personally wif some of my guinea pigs .. hehe ..

[suleenelena]

Post and let us know the rating of shogun,. :p

[kokomo]

Last min changes .. shogun hv to put on hold first ..therefore i cannot provide you any ratings for it.

[wanmei]

when there yesterday....dinner

my verdict...I'm rather (willingly)spend my hard earn money in Raku Zen then this plc :mad: menyesal

tempura cool and stale(no taste), salmon roe(sushi) not fresh, unagi(taste bad) and lots more...no next time!
sory...i dunno how to describes bad foods in english..he..he

I saw other ppl /tables enjoy their meals loh..maybe its me who hd t problemo..
the only thing i enjoy....salad/fruit section...oren..pineapple..watermelon slices

btw..shogun served PARROT FISH..can eat meh? I know its an expensive fish

[kokomo]

Yea, heard a lot of bad comment / not so good comment on this Shogun!!! Rakuzen damn expensive ler .. another place is ermm .. above sunway pyramid there .. anybody been there?

[suleenelena]

Thats the one i have been telling u about the jap food upstairs of kim gary in sunway. Food i find in one utama tak boleh makan. except for vietnamese kitchen . :cool:

[pinkpau]

Thats the one i have been telling u about the jap food upstairs of kim gary in sunway. Food i find in one utama tak boleh makan. except for vietnamese kitchen . :cool:
vietnamese kitchen ROCKS!

[SunwayKid]

This place, as I posted earlier is called Zen, the younger brother of Rakuzen. It is managed by a supervisor named Benny (I think that's his name or something similar) and Rakuzen, by a Japanese, so you pay Japanese managed prices there.

If you go to Zen, tell the supervisor that you are a regular and asked him (he is the one not in uniform) for a privilege card which will give you a 10% discount entitlement. :)

Had their oyster, avocado and california sushi the last time I was there......yummy yummy.

[kokomo]

Ok set. One fine day I shall go Zen to check it out. Since its nearer than to travel to 1U .... or KL Joyoga .. *phew .. to think of the jams alone can kill me .. so what else is nice in Zen?

[suleenelena]

Go and find out yourself ;)

[kokomo]

Yes suleen .. thanks for reminding me .. I need a partner to go along to Zen. Will let u know the result on Zen.

[leewinnie46]

never eat at Shogun, but the restaurant beside Shogun - Esquire Kitchen . I could see many ppl go during weekend or month end or beginning of the month until a lot of ppl will queue for a table.

majority between friend and couples, seldom see family.

Last month, I still remember i saw many couples and friend queue for a table the minutes i "check in " at Esquire Kitchen 6:45pm, even after quite some time with kids running to the next shop for play, I could continuously see other will queue for a table until 8:00pm. which I already "check out" from Esquire kitchen.

Still remember i always sit outside and i look at what they are eating, they look back, so the looking war non stop until we finish our meal

[kokomo]

I agree wif you winnie. Esquire Kitchen food does look good and better than Shogun. For the price that they pay for Shogun there I guess those family can hv a good meal in Esquire already.

Shogun there nowadays I think not many ppl patronize that place already. I guess they knew the sushi & sashimi wasn't so fresh.

[leewinnie46]

so you got any good restaurant to suggest for japanese food kah ? say Zen lah

[kokomo]

I hv yet to try out Zen la .. hmm .. probably now, hv to wait for my bonus first. Hehe .. :o Winnie, if your hubby is in a good mood to bring you there, then you can let me know bout it. ;)

Few times tried to go Rakuzen as well, but then each time go over there .. which the one in KL, Raja Chulan Square .. the place is closed. :( Sigh! No luck wif it.

[leewinnie46]

ok, ok, but don't know when woh since kids doesn't like raw food, fish eggs which i just love it, my source for rich protein

[kokomo]

Winnie, basically there are only 2 options for you. 1) is to bring whole family makan there. They hv varieties of food from cook food to raw sushi & sashimi. 2) is to go there only wif your hubby'lor. Lomantic abit ma. :)

[Janet]

Eh, that day I went to Shogun in One Utama.. I have no comment of the food, not really fresh but acceptable. And they gave us cream-baked oyster. They said its their special menu, and each customer get to eat ONE only. Not available at the buffet counter. :rolleyes:

I don't know if its my shoes or what, I found their floor very slipery :D

[kokomo]

Today I pass by Shogun again .. yet again, so many ppl still there patronizing it ... but then had a call from a friend to inform me that after she had her meals there ... those sashimi n sushi .. stomache the very next day. Said is not fresh and not nice also.

After hearing this, I've made up my mind not to visit that place .... and yet I find so many ppl so curious and adventurous to try out this place ... I wonder actually how many ppl do go back there again to hv their meals :confused:

[wAISEKMAo]

Pass by Joyoga before. Ambience is great! But I think for me, hv to wait for my bonus day only get to go there. :o

I went to JOGOYA earlier of this month.

My wife and I went there for the cheapest time..that's 2-4pm, I think RM 78.00 lar...quite a lot ler.

First of all, most of the staff are Myanmar but there are some locals(little).

The atmosphere are nice and good

The sashimi and sushi are definitely freshier than shogun's.

There are some dim sum, sushi, sashimi and what they call as east west dish(is it call fusion?) which is good.

My wife love the lobster soup(whole lobster). You should try.

There are clips on your table which you can drop it into any of the plate in front of the dish you wish to order.

There are lots of dish (steam fish, fried fish, fried prawn, steam prawn, chicken, beef, vegetable, fried lala and etc). Even the duck meat are much better than the normal duck meat in pudu(not to mention the duck in USJ 2).

There are thai coconut milk (which is better than local's, i can tell you this..the malay couple on the next table probably drink no less than 3-4 each). there are normal stuff like "kau" watermelon water and other fruits.

On the desert, the desert are yummy. custard with melt sugar. Delicious cookies and original swiss ice cream.

Please do not even try to order WASABI BEEF. I only eat one piece Sorry to say this but I got to hide most of the wasabi beef on eaten food..cause it's charge if I do not finish the food. Don't say I dun tell you. ok.

Other than this, what I can tell you is...My wife actually give up on Shogun and will choose JOGOYA now.

What I can say is JOGOYA is the high end of SHOGUN.

what can you expect? do not expect traditional stuff. Expect new stuff..fusion?

And pls go between 2-4pm as it is cheapest then.

[kokomo]

waisekmao .. i think I should print out your comment and go Joyoga there ... hehe ... so I can follow what you've ordered there to see if it's really nice or not ... you're really making me hungry already. Spoilt all my diet .. :D

Anyway, wif your confirmation .. surely i'll go Joyoga there to try it .. 1 fine day .. when my cheque is fat la .. hehe .. now cannot go yet. :o

[wAISEKMAo]

Errr...there is another thread here talks about it. I just saw it a moment ago.

By the way, there are oysters and the ice cream is wovenpick.

KOKOMO,
make sure you didn't eat the previous day ah and the morning before. Because I found out I consume too much food the 2 hours I am there..my stomach is so much bloated that I need some rest..before drive home. hehehe..no joking man!

[kokomo]

Looking at the price, I probably might do so ... starving myself day before man. Heheh ... I was thinkin' to spend my time there for bout 4 hours man. :cool:

Won't put so much interest on the ice-cream part. Oyster is what I like best! :D Joyoga also serve dim sum? :confused:

[suleenelena]

Do u have the number for that rest? waisekmo? :D

[wAISEKMAo]

Do u have the number for that rest? waisekmo? :D

Err...no...not trying to promote though. But I believe you can go there and the best deal is still between 2pm to 4pm.

[suleenelena]

so i dont have to make reservation? i just step in to that place at 2pm is it?

[kokomo]

Err...no...not trying to promote though. But I believe you can go there and the best deal is still between 2pm to 4pm.

How come only that time ar? Will there be a lot of ppl there anot? After 2pm is after lunch time wor. Which day is it close? Scared if I happen or decide to go there try then it's not open.

[KakiLang]

That's the late lunch session, it is the cheapest one, lunch, dinner, supper r more expensive mah. If u wanna save abit of $$ then go for late lunch session lor. Btw when shall we go there & pig-out ah? :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[kokomo]

KakiLang, you interested? Hehe .. can can arrange and then get more ppl to go pig-out. Since it's KL .. then you all arrange, if I can make it then I'll come join you guys .. if not then you guys go ahead and tell me how is it. ;)

[KakiLang]

Why not? We can organise a food sampling tour there with the kaki here.....but Kress is already talking abt Rakuzen on the other thread....this one maybe a bit later... :rolleyes:

[kokomo]

I won't be joining Rakuzen, too expensive .. can't afford. Might hv to wait for my bonus / lottery. But am serious bout it ya. Don't play play wif me. :cool:

[AppLePie]

So, whats the outcome? You guys making me hungry and i got to stare at the screen visualizing all the food mentioned while eating my plain instant oats with milo..... :(

[kokomo]

At least you're having instant oats and milo, ok. Me here, hungry watching ppl makan and not visualising at all. Plus early morning I had to do all donkey jobs cos my staff FFK this morning :mad:

[AppLePie]

At least you're having instant oats and milo, ok. Me here, hungry watching ppl makan and not visualising at all. Plus early morning I had to do all donkey jobs cos my staff FFK this morning :mad:

Kokomo, the oats i had already digested lah! Ermm, dont be so angry lah, relax!

[PeterHng]

Why not? We can organise a food sampling tour there with the kaki here.....but Kress is already talking abt Rakuzen on the other thread....this one maybe a bit later... :rolleyes:

Kakilang, that sounds quite appealing actually... food sampling tour ... discuss with kress la, v r talking abt Sumo now wor but subject to change lo according to budget and majority .... :)

[kokomo]

Kokomo, the oats i had already digested lah! Ermm, dont be so angry lah, relax!

Nothing more relaxing than going back home and sleep now. Wake up when I feel much better. But then again, work neva ends .. and we can leave the place till work is complete. :(

[suleenelena]

can i please have the contact number?

[wAISEKMAo]

can i please have the contact number?
well suleenelena,

i don't have the number now but there's a review and another website which reviews this outlet. check it out.

[SunwayKid]

Jogoya - +603 21421268

:)

[kokomo]

SunwayKid, aren't you the one mention that you wanted to go Joyoga and try out? Well, hv you been there already? If not, when why not you join suleen to go there?

[suleenelena]

hmm.. nw i know where to take my mom to on mother's day.

[GreyShadow]

hmm... was thinking of taking my wifey to Shogun tomorrow for dinner
since there's quite a few negative comments (food not fresh, long queue), I'll skip... ;)
Now considering Jogoya... anyone dine there recently? I heard they have increased their price... How much issit right now? I guess it will be RM200++ for 2 pax ya?

[kokomo]

WaisekMao been to these Joyoga already and his feedback was quite good.

So Grey, if you take your wife there, you'll be the second person to comment bout it. ;)

[SunwayKid]

SunwayKid, aren't you the one mention that you wanted to go Joyoga and try out? Well, hv you been there already? If not, when why not you join suleen to go there?

Aiseh kokomo, where do you think I got the number from. :)

For a buffet, there is nothing much to complain but of course, one can't compare with Shangri-La standards. As for quality and authenticity of Japanese cuisine run by a Taiwanese chain, I need to follow the words of my late father (god bless his soul), who said, "Son, if you got nothing good to say, don't say anything". My lips are sealed.

[kokomo]

Aiya .. SunwayKid, 'd other time you only mention that you were thinkin' of going there but not so soon ma. Hmm .. no comments over their place from you huh .. :rolleyes:

I agree with your dad statement. I guess we just hv to go there and try out ourselves. :)

[GreyShadow]

Dine at the Jogoya with my wifey on Saturday evening.

The setting and the ambience are quite nice, compared to most of the jap buffet restaurant. Paid RM200++ (after 15% tax) for both of us, RM88++ per pax.

The food are quite nice, very very fresh, and lot's of variety to choose from also. I'll say their have the most food variety among all of the buffet restaurant we have visited. Our fav is the king crab paper steamboat, this is the first time we tasted the king crab... really yummy and we ordered a second helping :p
The raw food counter are also quite nice, we ate lot's of sashimi, I think about 3 small plates full of raw fish :p The wasabi they used also is the original wasabi grated directly from the fresh wasabi root, where you still can see the root fibre, unlike some of those cheap wasabi made from powder. Lot's of seafood variety, fresh oyster is one of the most popular item... We had the fried whole crab (much better than most of the crab selling out there) and a whole softshell crab. Too bad didn't see any lobster :p and also didn't see Unagi :(
Beverage & dessert got lots of variety also. Ice-blended cuppocino, fresh fruit juices, coffee, tea, & soft drink, our fav is the whole coconut.... we finished 6 coconuts :p
Dessert they have variety of cookies, egg tart also not bad, and the cheese cakes, and variety of mousse... arr.... am drooling right now.... :p Not to forget the nice Movenpick ice-cream from switzerland.

Service wise also not bad, the staffs are very polite & courteous... But I can see many foreign workers there also. Another good thing is their toilet, now that's what I called a 5-stars toilet, you'll have to visit it to know how good is it. :p

That night we ate until we can barely walk back to the carpark :p We haven't had a really nice buffet like this for ages already.... Most of the buffet out there served so so quality food only, but this one is really good quality and fresh and really worth the price. Too bad can't go back there too often... wallet cannot take it :p

[AppLePie]

Hiyiii guys, tonite im going over to shogun for dinner with my client! Want to go to Joyoga but hate to drive down to kl especially during dinner hour. So, gonna give my feedback on the food tomorrow!! Yummy!!

[kokomo]

[AppLePie]

Errmm .. hopefully, what happened to my friend won't happened to you'lah. Good luck in food tasting! Hehe .. ;)

kokomo, do not worry coz i have iron stomach! Kekekeke

[kokomo]

Apple, iron stomach or not, sashimi not fresh means not fresh, food no good means food no good. Hehe ... give your feedback in here when you're done there. Am sure everyone would wanna hear from you as well, how's the food there.

[AppLePie]

Hiyiiiiii guys!!!!!!!! After the Shogun dinner, my stomach is as per normal! Kekeke.... Okok, below are my comments on the food and restaurant....

Ermm, i would say Shogun is a better place then Saisaki. The ambience is better and cleaner.... Food wise, i find it moderate lah, nothing really impressive..... Lots of mixed local and korean food as well.....Sashimi not very fresh but acceptable (no tummy upset, YET), Tampura better than saisaki and the food supply is more then enough to cater, so basically you dont really have to wait for them to replenish food.

I think given a chance, i dont mind going back there again. I also heard that saisaki is closed down for renovation. Will the food quality increase after the re opening? Gotta find out!

I personally still prefer Zen then Shogun. But again, it is up to the individual. Have not tried Joyoga, heard good and bad comments from clients and friends, guess tht just have to find it myself..... Diet plan failed lastnite, as if the word "On Diet" sounds alien to me!! Had a good time there though....

[kokomo]

Yes, must agree ... pass by Shogun many times. Their ambience and settings are nice. Attract many ppl there. Main reason ppl go for such buffet also they wanna hv japanese sashimi. Looks like Shogun is a 'celup' for all.

whoaaa.. dont take it for granted.. i dont know about weekdays but i was in 1u on a Saturday.. was nicely sitting at Bakerzin.. waiting till it was like 7-8pm so we could go eat.. assuming there's alot of space so it wouldn't be hard to get a table for 3 of us..

When we got there, whoaaaa the amount of people waiting was just crazy.. and there were 32 tables in front of us.. ahha

So.. I highly advice you to make reservations ;p

[kokomo]

Seriously that many ppl ar? Hmmm ... then lucky thing SunwayKid has got these contact no. with him. He is the walkin' phone book for food reservations. :D Anyway, SUnwayKid ... thanks for the contact no. Anyone else that wanna try it and make reservation, better take down these numbers.

So Penny, did u still manage to try Shogun anot? After waitin' for so long, did u gave up or you cont. to wait till you get a sit in there? :confused:

[SunwayKid]

Aiyoh...Kokomo, not that lah. I am just kiasu - don't like to wait and see other people whack all the good stuff and just left the crumbs. When I go buffet, I want to attack the food straight away, without wasting any time, especially at buffet where time is a factor - and that is when those numbers comes in handy.

:)

[kokomo]

Yea SunwayKid, for you to hv all these numbers are handy for us. Hehe .... :D Anyway, to hv reservation numbers are much easier & less hassle than to wait there.

[sweetyangel]

thanks ur tel no. Sunwaykid. me too always 1 2 make reservation no matter movie or restaurent, especially movie..... lazy 2 Q so long then no more good place for u, waste my time.... :cool:

[kokomo]

Movie is a confirm thing must make reservation. No reservation can forget bout watching movie for that nite. Q is so long that practically you might hv to stand in-line right up to counter there for bout an hour or so. Ridiculous!

Back to Shogun, most time I pass by there, not many ppl that time or surely got place to sit. So I won't know that place is actually that packed. :rolleyes:

[sweetyangel]

finally had my dinner at Shogun with my family.... since reservation oledi full so v walk in.... :( hav 2 Q for 1/2 an hour. But me n my family had a wonderful time there :) wide varienty of food

[kokomo]

So how was your food there? Good? So-so? Bad? (can't be bad since you enjoyed yourself there together wif your family) :) 1/2 hour is a pretty long wait. Lucky thing is in a complex got other things to see or still walk around.

[PeNNyPupZ]

kokomo : haha of course we didn't wait.. crazy! plus we were starving at that time.. ended up in chilis instead.. but i've eaten at shogun before.. heh as usual, indigestion halfway.. so.. hard to comment on the food :P had more fun playing around with the food tho ;p

[kokomo]

Penny, if can play wif the food in Shogun means not up to the standard'lah. Hehe .. 'd other day went bought some sushi & sashimi from MV Jusco there .. I eat until I wanna throw up. salmon sashimi ain't to say very fresh after 8pm. :(

[sakaibear]

ok i'm finally back...hehe. lazy to read the 10 pages....so what's up? when we going to shogun?? i'm always hungry and lets eat! :p

[PeNNyPupZ]

hahah.. well.. not authentic jap buffet ma wadtodo.. was having indigestion thats why it was hard to continue eating

[kokomo]

Penny, next time you can try carry a packet of Eno wif you .. it might just work for you wif your indigestion.

Sakaibear, am just askin' around for opinion from other forumers that has been there .. how was their food being rated. Anyway, if you really interested then we can organise another makan session .. hehe .. but hv to wait until our group comes back from K.Pilah first.

We go Shogun and play wif their food .. haha .. jus like Penny mentioned. Deal?

[PeNNyPupZ]

yeah.. i always forget to bring along eno.. but quite used to stopping by 7 11 after that to get eno.. hahaha i remember always doing that at ss12 after the jap all-u-can-eat at sheraton.. almost everytime

ahhaha dun la say until lidat.. hahahaa couldn't eat maa

[kokomo]

Err ... I didn't know Sheraton here also got eat-all-u-can japs food wor ... hmmm .. good arh? If its good then don't have to play wif food. Haha .. :p

[PeNNyPupZ]

hahah haven't been there for a long time already.. yeah it's really good.. really can sapu everything =)~~

[jianwei85]

Walked pass Shogun this afternoon after collecting something from fren..Super Packed..n got LOONNG wait line...

[kokomo]

Hmm .. am still wondering now, after all the so so comment and not fresh sashimi .. how come still so many ppl wanna patronize this place arh? Have they actually changed their quality for better? Just curious!

[sweetyangel]

how 2 walk walk ler kokomo, hav 2 q up mah....
although so many so so comment but at least u go n try urself only u know mah.... different ppl different stardard, other ppl cannot dislike doesnt mean u don like it either, am i rite? :p

[kokomo]

Sweety, you got me spot on. Ok! I will make it a point to go try it myself. Sakaibear and all others that have not been there before .. are you guys game for it also? :cool:

[sakaibear]

eh u just said that the food not fresh and all and was playing with your food.....really wanna go try ah?

[kokomo]

Errmmm .. like sweety say diff ppl diff taste butt .. so gotta try to comment on it yourself wor .. so how? U game for it? We go try .. if we don't like .. we post like mad in here bout Shogun!

[sherrygin]

LOL @ Kokomo posting like mad!

Shogun is nothing to shout about but definitely better than Saisaki (heard they are from the same group?). The food was ok but the sashimi wasn't all that fresh (I know coz I hurled after taking the salmon sashimi). Maybe it was just my luck that day.

But guys, give it a go coz I know many who love that place.

(Jogoya is the next place I'm gonna try)

[kokomo]

Aiya ... sherry, I thought you would say you will come join me and sakaibear and rest of the gangs that is interested in it as well.

Anyway, newcomers if interested also can come join us. We promise we won't scare you off so soon. Haha ... :D

[sherrygin]

Can........... I'm always game. The jokes are reasons enough :D

[kokomo]

That's great. Hehe ... jokes are always included anywhere we go. Make sure we crack ppl upside down. Not wif a can opener arh ... hehe .. ;)

[blabber]

I went once and sat in toilet the next day. I ate shashimi, but have always eaten shashimi at other places and nothine has ever happened.

My personal preference, no more 2nd time. I doesn't taste authentic. I t serves no unagi, no miso soup, no chahan, even the chawan mushi sucks. It doesn't even have white jap rice. Before I knew it's opened by a taiwanese, I oredi suspected it not opened by a jap. The crabs are not live, I saw them taking out from the fridge, dead and wrapped in film, and practically tasteless (in terms of crab taste).

The only thing I'd say nice abt this place, the desserts and icecream, drinks, and bamboo charcoal jelly. That's all. Food, nah, go for Ryu Men Tei, eat ur fill with half the price only.

[kokomo]

Earlier on went to Subang Parade .. pass by this new japanese sushi called Sakae Sushi. Price not bad .. and food very fresh & tasty.

I luv their soft shell crap for only RM6.90 (got 2 crabs in 1 plate) :eek: plus their unagi roll .. wahhh ... the unagi wrapped the rice wif salmon skin which is so crispy n their fresh cucumber. :) Had few plates of that .. did try their other things as well. Really good and can say now this is better than Sushi King & Gengki Sushi as well .. in terms of service and food.

1 thing is, their soya sauce dun put so much .. very da 'kiam' .. might jz spoil some of your taste butts. Happy tryin' folks!~ :cool:

[sakaibear]

wei...this shogun ah...got other things to eat besides sashimi ah? frankly i'm not that keen on raw fish....or fish as a matter of fact...:P ...i'm a meat person....those who has seen me will know why...hehehe...:)

kokomo, we keep eating like that ah...good also. at least got ppl teman me...hehe.

[kokomo]

Shogun is a buffet place. Definitely they have more than just a raw fish to eat there. Meaty boy! Hehe ... :p

Sakaibear, for food ... am more than glad to teman you but am not your bowling pins still ar ... :D

[evecyanide]

wei...this shogun ah...got other things to eat besides sashimi ah? frankly i'm not that keen on raw fish....or fish as a matter of fact...:P ...i'm a meat person....those who has seen me will know why...hehehe...:)

kokomo, we keep eating like that ah...good also. at least got ppl teman me...hehe.

Sakaibear. If you're a meat person, there's this one place near to Atria PJ called chucaracia or sumthin.... dunno lah.... They bring the meats-on-skewers to your table and slice em fresh for you... Not sure about the price though. Kress, do you the name of the place ar? Right beside maybank behind atria.

[sakaibear]

yayayaya!!!!.....i think i know...the beef,lamb place....70 odd bucks for all u can eat right?? :D

[kokomo]

Waaa .. am surprise to see you around in here at such time. Hahah ... cannot sleep arh? Or you gotta work just like me. :mad:

[evecyanide]

yayayaya!!!!.....i think i know...the beef,lamb place....70 odd bucks for all u can eat right?? :D

Yup. I remember it being expensive. Shall we fill up our makan piggy banks and go there one day? I've been wanting to go but no kaki. My personal friends not willing to part with their $$ :mad:

[sherrygin]

I think we should ditch the idea of Shogun and head straight to Jogoya. Food is good (esp the salmon sashimi), great spread, and yes, lots of meat too (for the meat-lovers).

One thing I don't get - they have a section called Indian Cuisine (which I didn't bother with). But hey, I ain't complainin'.

You can practically have your tea, dinner and supper there coz it's open from 5pm to midnight. Go after 9.30pm and you get RM10 off.

The restaurant is non-smoking but there is a smoking room at the end of the restaurant (yes, I checked that out esp for Sakai *wink*)

And yes, Eve, Carnaval Churrascaria looks good. Someone told me the food's good but I can't remember which friend now. Just holler, I'm game!

[kokomo]

Great job sherry! Hehe .. a complete details on Jogoya esp. after 9.30pm and RM10 off.

By your description, who ain't game for it. I believe most of us are already salivating & waitin' for the right time to hit for it. Right? ;)

Aiseh, the smokers corner at the end of the restaurant .. this tells you that, you sit near there, there is a pipe for you, hold it while you smoke .. then puff it out into that pipe which links to outside. Environment friendly. :)

Don't have to remember which friend tells you what and where is good. Just remember us usj.com forumers will do. Haha .... :cool:

Earlier on went to Subang Parade .. pass by this new japanese sushi called Sakae Sushi. Price not bad .. and food very fresh & tasty.

I luv their soft shell crap for only RM6.90 (got 2 crabs in 1 plate) :eek: plus their unagi roll .. wahhh ... the unagi wrapped the rice wif salmon skin which is so crispy n their fresh cucumber. :) Had few plates of that .. did try their other things as well. Really good and can say now this is better than Sushi King & Gengki Sushi as well .. in terms of service and food.

1 thing is, their soya sauce dun put so much .. very da 'kiam' .. might jz spoil some of your taste butts. Happy tryin' folks!~ :cool:
The Curve oso hav 1 sakae sushi outlet, izzit same?

Yes, its the same. Many ppl there as well. Since you stay in Kepong .. perhaps that is nearer for you to go try it out. :)
