With The Berry-licious Stories
Category : BBQ, Featured, Japanese Food, Kuala Lumpur
Take a break from those stories and allow me to share my recent find with you guys – Yakiniku or simply known as grilled meat, or more likely the Japanese BBQ.
Gerai Makan Japanese BBQ 大众烧肉 is one of my good finds in Year 2011 (highly recommended by a choosy friend a.k.a. picky eater) after fire-y hot meal in Uncle Jang and the once-a-while-splurge in Shuraku. Want a place for sake and some grilled stuff but not ready for a splurge?! Perhaps, this could be in your list.
Last Friday, together with the drinking-partners E and J; 3 of us braved through the crazy traffic after the heavy downpour, just to have a Friday-after-work-dinner and happy hour here in Shuraku. Thanks to the storm, our dinner turned out to become… errr supper. Well, it did not tense us up as it was Friday! Friday is a day where you should slow down your footsteps and happily welcome the weekend, isn’t it?!
Shuraku; an izakaya 居酒屋, cozy little drinking place that is very popular among the after-work drinking crowds (or happy hour). Just plain drinking?! Nope, they serve snacks food or grilled or fried stuff too!
Kampai!!!
Sake was our best friend of the night. We tried it warm.
And then… switched to the chilled one. We still find chilled sake suits our tummies most. Contunue Reading

Yay, dinner time!
いただきます
Itadakimasu…
Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant is our new love. Together with my Partners-in-crime, we hopped over Pavilion KL for a casual evening dinner.
Kari Kari Pasta (RM 5.90) ｶﾘｶﾘﾊﾞｽﾀ
A great snack to go with beer. Though we didn’t order any alcoholic drink, we find ourselves keep munching it.
Mum always nags, do not play with your food! But, you are allowed to do so here!
Tsubuse Mentai Potato Salad (RM 12.90)
Provided with the masher, you have got to mash everything up to form the potato salad. Do mash it evenly to create a well balance taste in every spoonful of your mashed potato.
Tokujo Irodori Sushi (RM 20.90)
Assorted sushi made of salmon, unagi (eel), tuna. The ingredients were fresh and superb.
TGIF!!!
Remember I had we had a soul and mind cleansing dinner on one Friday?
That was not all; because we had another cleansing session after the dinner.
(Do take note with the term on what is their real cleansing session means).
Well, I really needed some meat. So, I simply tikam (pointed) to a place that serves some protein. We then ended up in Yashiki Yakitori & Bar
Yakitori or the grilled skewers; they come in bite-sized pieces of meats to offal, mushroom, vegetables … or anything that can go on the bamboo skewer, and grilled.
Sexy pork belly, salmon with pork belly, chicken… arrived piping hot, very very very fragrant and juicy. (priced at RM 3 onwards per skewer)

Chawan Mushi, the Japanese steamed custard in a cup is one of my favourite side dishes whenever it comes to Japanese cuisine. It is something similar to Chinese steamed egg but with different ingredients hidden at the bottom of the cup
All you need are just some simple ingredients and …
*Poooooffff*
You can have soft silky smooth Chawan Mushi at home too!
Instead of dashi, I used unsweetened soya milk to create a rich, creamy and melt-in-mouth-type Chawan Mushi
***
Soya Chawan Mushi (makes 2)
1 egg
250 ml of unsweetened soya milk
1 teaspoonful of mirin
1/8 teaspoonful of salt (adjust based on your preferences)
Little bit of soy sauce
Prawn
Japanese bunashimeiji mushroom
Steps:
Lightly beat the egg and add in soya milk, mirin, salt and soy sauce.
Mix the ingredients lightly.
Sieve the egg-liquid mixture.
Place the prawn and button mushroom into the bowl.
Pour the egg-liquid mixture into the bowl.
Steam it for a minute at high heat and then 7 minutes at low heat.
Easy, isn’t it?! 
Try it out today!
