With a new chef on board, Miyabi is now open for omakase – an option for customers who enjoy “leaving things up to the chef”. It also showcases the chef’s ability to customise and adapt to individuals while allowing their personal style to come through ever so slightly. Priced at RM288…

My definition of a “good night out” involves a bit of good food and a couple of drinks, if the option is available. Butaya Izakaya in Sri Hartamas has been on my food radar for quite some time, but it requires advance reservation to secure a table. This izakaya screams…
A good friend took Jien and I to Yakiniku Goro in Desa Sri Hartamas when it first opened – as there was a 30% discount off all food items for the entire month. The bill for 3 pax came up to less than RM200; very reasonable considering the amount of…
I didn’t think much about Warakuya in Puchong when Jien suggested we eat there for lunch recently. He’s been there prior with a friend and told me I should check it out myself. The restaurant is large and on weekends, it gets super packed during peak hours. Warakuya Puchong is…
When it comes to cuisine of choice on a date night, Jien and I tend to gravitate towards meat – beef, in particular. We love the idea of tucking into freshly grilled beef or steak, especially if it’s a delicious, tender cut. Shin Nihon in Desa Sri Hartamas is said…

Every now and then, Jien and I will go for a date night to catch up with each other over a meal. Sometimes, I get it my way. Sometimes, he does. And when he does, we go for something new – like Kannichikan Yakiniku in Desa Sri Hartamas. This yakiniku…
It took me more than 40 call attempts using two different Malaysian number to book a seat at Ryo Sushi in Singapore – and I never got through to the other line. But my good friend Jeen called using her Singapore line and got through almost immediately, so you might…
Tokyo is one of my favourite cities to visit – from the abundance of good food, shopping options and local attractions. If you ask me about my must-eats in Tokyo, I’d definitely say monjayaki! Monjayaki is known as another version of okonomiyaki, but with different fillings. “Monja Street” in Tsukishima…
