Akari Japanese Restaurant @ Taman Segar, Cheras

  • Sumo

My all-time-to-go izakaya near my area has closed down, I thought, I will never able to have decent Japanese meal around my area (if there is a sudden craving). Glad to see that there is another new face popping up at the other end of the corner recently…

Akari Japanese Restaurant

Located at the busy hub in Taman Segar, the same row as Maybank (but another corner end), Akari Japanese Restaurant is one that serves semi fine Japanese cuisine at affordable mid-range price. Chef Lum is the soul behind this restaurant. He has more than 30 years’ experience in Japanese cuisine. Fresh ingredients especially vegetables and seafood are used to prepare the dishes. I’d have to say, their seafood dishes are all reasonably priced. The menu is pretty extensive, featuring a series of appetizer, salad, sashimi, sushi, temaki, yakimono, tempura, ramen, and many more. There is even a page full of chawan mushi in the menu.
