Foo Hing dim sum @ Bandar Puteri, Puchong

Foo Hing dim sum restaurant located in Bandar Puteri Puchong is worth to go if you are craving for good salted egg lava buns and egg tarts. I went there to have brunch and found out that the restaurant is still full with people. No wonder their shop is so huge with air conditioned and open air area. They have wide selection of dim sum and they have Shanghai xiao loong pau as well. However, they don't have that by the time I arrived. So I just took their special superior dumpling soup instead. The meal was good.

Taste:8/10(Good. This restaurant has good salted egg lava pau, char siew pau and egg tart. The egg tart is good with delicate flaky layers of soft pastry).
Price:5/10(Near expensive. Ordering their special items which hard to find in other dim sum restaurants. BBQ buns and egg tart at MYR2.30 each, prawn dumpling/har gao/steam squid at MYR6.00, salted egg lava pau at MYR6.00 and special superior dumpling soup at MYR12.00).

Decent Japanese sushi at Ichiro Sushi Bar @ Eat Paradise, One Utama, Petaling Jaya

Ichiro sushi bar is a decent Japanese restaurant located at upper floor of Isetan in One Utama. Usually food in shopping malls don't serve great food but Ichiro is different from the rest. The food here is fresh and prepared by Japanese chef which is rare sight in Japanese restaurant nowadays. Another good thing about Ichiro is sometimes they serve seasonal items and some of the fishes are not found in the mainstream Japanese Restaurants. So do check them out from time to time on their facebook page (link below). Ordering for your meal is simple and fast via ipad.

Taste:9/10(Delicious. Sushi are fresh and they have fishes which are not found in other Japanese restaurant. Tried sanma & mackerel which hard to find elsewhere. Both were good. Sorbet dessert taste good and refreshing as well. Do also check out their alcoholic drink such as Umeshu and Aragoshi momo which taste great - no picture as my phone out of battery :-( ).
Price:3/10(Expensive. If you choose to have their premium sushi which can't get somewhere else in any Japanese restaurant, then the price is expensive. Their kinmedai fish sushi cost MYR30.00 for two pieces and toro for MYR60.00 for two. The price is more reasonable if you come here during lunch time to have their sashimi rice bowl which is just cost around MYR25.00. Yuzu sorbet at MYR7.00 and Japanese sweet alcoholic drink at MYR18.00 a glass).


Huge fish piece on top of rice. The sushi portion considered as standard size as in Japan. Fresh as well.
