Zestful Eats

This shop recently opened in Ikano sometime late last year offering steamboat. Each table is specially made with a small electric stove in front of each seat. You then have a choice of tomyam soup or clear soup.

In the picture above, the bottom left is our combo set of raw food. The round metal bowls are filled with soup and heated from below using the electric stove. The bowl on the top is the additional Tong Fu Zhu we ordered.

We had the Combo Set for two people (RM29.80) which has cabbage, prawns, mee, taufu, fishballs, sliced fish, crab sticks,foo chuk, etc. Then we ordered additional Yong Fu Zhu – its this foo chuk thingy with some minced fish which is deep fried (RM2.80). Then we also had Fried Seafood Taufu (RM4.00) and 3 glasses of Herbal Tea (RM6.00).
Bill came up to a total of RM42.60.

Food is fresh. Nothing that smells or tastes funny. The tomyam soup was extreamly pedas though. The clear soup is just basic stock. According to the menu, there are a few different types of sets, especially the individual ones where you can chose to have lamb, salmon, prawns and all sort of other meat.

I’ve been wanting to try out this place since it opened in the Curve but for some reason I never got round to actually doing so. Finally, I managed to drag Jef to have dinner with me here to check out the food and place.

Like most Japanese restaurants, Sakae Sushi has the conveyer belt that serves little colourful plates of sushi. Their prices range from RM1.90 to RM5.90 per plate. There was this nice eggroll sushi we had – it has soft shell crab inside and was wrapped with egg. Cant remember the name but it was yummy!

Ordering is also a breeze here. Every table is equipped with a monitor and a mouse so all you have to do is choose what do you want to order and then when it’s cooked, they’ll send it to you. There is also a hot water tap at each table. This is when you order green tea – they’ll give you a cup and a teabag of green tea and you can refill whenever you want.

I had the Saba Shiyaki & Taufu (cant remember what they called the taufu) which consists of a bowl of rice, miso soup, lightly fried fish & deep fried tofu in soy sauce. Price : RM18.90

The food here is good and quite reasonably priced. Highly recommended!
