For Mr. Bf’s birthday we opted for something affordable and something that my sensitive stomach would agree upon. We went for a second visit to Rakuzen Japanese Restaurant. That and because it’s pretty near our place.
We enjoyed Rakuzen’s Yakinikujyu, Unagi Yanagawa and Stamina Roll on our first visit. This time we ordered something different. We had Coral Roll, Kaki Fried Zen and Teppanyaki Zen. Initially we wanted to order the Caterpillar Roll but they ran out of avocado. Dang, i love avocado
It’s a good idea to be there early.
Anyways, back to our order.

Coral Roll
So instead of Caterpillar roll we tried the Coral Roll which is basically salmon roll with huge roe on top. Not bad, not bad. I don’t think they can do any wrong with rolls here.

Teppanyaki Zen
However, i was pretty disappointed this time around because my Teppanyaki Zen was a disaster. I asked for the teppanyaki beef to be medium rare (or so i thought) but i got medium instead. Ok, nevermind. I took a bite and did have the heart to finish it. The beef was so difficult to chew! After a few pieces i gave up and left unfinished.

Yucky Beef
The teppanyaki set also comes with a bowl of garlic rice. Sad to say that this is quite disappointing too. The rice is a little bland and tasteless. I had better garlic rice at BBQ Plaza than this lor.
The only thing that i find nice about this set is the vegetables (cabbage, capsicum and bean sprout), chawanmushi and the miso soup. Sigh…

Bland garlic rice
Mr. Bf the birthday boy got himself a set of Kaki Fried Zen which is fried oyster tempura style. The set also comes with rice, chawanmushi and miso soup.

Kaki Fried Zen
This is a good dish to try for those who don’t fancy raw oyster. I can’t eat raw oyster or poorly cooked oyster coz i’m afraid of the juices that taste fishy. However, the tempura oyster was pretty yummy and the 5 pieces of oyster was huge!

Tempura oysters
Coral Roll – RM22.00
Kaki Fried Zen – RM36.00
Teppanyaki Zen – RM38.00
Total: RM110.40 (RM96.00 + RM 14.40 – service and tax)
