Sumiya Izakaya

Located in Taman Segar, at one corner lot, sharing the same row with Inside Scoop and Poppo Canteen. This is an izakaya manned by a Japanese head chef and his team, serving izakaya fares along with some Japanese delights.

First thought, is it the same one in Subang SS15 as they both shared the same kanji – Sumika?! One comes with ‘k’ and this Sumiya comes with ‘y’. Guess they have no relation with one another.

The menu is pretty extensive. You may find sashimi, sushi, don, ramen, soba, udon from the menu; and a variety of yakitori as one of their features, as well as widespread of sake in the drinks menu which is priced very reasonably *blink blink*.

Their set lunch is pretty affordable and tummy-filling too, comes with a main dish, tofu, salad, miso soup and rice. Priced from Rm 16.8 onwards, available from 12pm to 2.30pm daily. Below are some of the set lunches I have tried.

Buta Bara (RM 6) & Enoki Bacon (Rm 5.8)
Grilled pork belly was amazingly grilled to perfection, with the fats melted on the palate. One word, fragrant! The whole oral cavity was instantly filled with the grease and aroma from the grilled pork.

Sasami Yuzu Koshi (Rm 6)
Tenderloin with yuzu and pepper.
Any idea where to get the yuzu paste??? It can transform something simple to a special dish. Just like the one I have tried in Butagoya.

Come to an izakaya of course must have some alcoholic beverages to go with the food. Sparkling sake was our pick for the night. Hana Awaka Sparkling Sake (Rm 35) which was refreshing and light, an easy to drink sparkling sake that dosed with sweet floral scent. I assured ladies will love this very much.
