Awesome Hokkaido Pork Don @ Senya Izakaya, Publika, Kuala Lumpur

This is a Japanese restaurant with an authentic izakaya feel and a huge menu selection. The location is at the end of a secluded corner of Solaris Dutamas. The restaurant has colourful lights and lively decor. I get a seat in front grilling area which I can watch all the cooking action. The Hokkaido pork rice is a must try dish here. Since here is izakaya, its wise if you order more of their grill stuff here since this is their specialities.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. Hokkaido pork don is their speciality and its delicious. However, this dish is so sinful. Almost half portion of pork is burned fatty part. The taste of this dish really enhanced with the spiciness and garlic flavour).
Price:5/10(Near expensive. For Japanese izakaya restaurant, the price here is quite reasonable with the quality and the food that they serve. They have huge variety of food and Japanese wines to choose from. Hokkaido pork don at MYR24.80, kokuto umeshu on the rock at MYR16.00, pork belly with mushroom at MYR6.80, shime saba sushi at MYR14.50, pork belly with lady finger at MYR6.80 and oden konnyaku at MYR5.00).
