Kintsugi Kuala Lumpur @ The Gardens Mall, KL
Kintsugi Kuala Lumpur
Located at 3F, Isetan The Gardens Mall, Kintsugi Kuala Lumpur is helmed by the Michelin Starred Chef Jeff Okada Ramsey; offering a special curated Modern Kaiseki dining experience. This space is elegantly designed, with a ceiling full of delicate gingko leaves. This restaurant features a 12-seater counter, tables at the dining hall and 3 private rooms.
I once tried Chef Jeff’s creation in Babe KL on my birthday many years back, and it was such a coincidence, I was here in Kintsugi for my birthday this year! Their Signature Wagyu Donabe Gohan Set had our attention, priced at RM 139.20 nett per set; both my colleague and I ordered the same set and we found it very value for money. The set came with a few courses, served one by one; which was something we never expected. We went ohh-ed and ahh-ed… over what we were served, all beautifully plated and pretty delicious too.
Homemade Tofu with Nanami
Garnished with their signature blend of seven Japanese herbs, roots and seeds mix; a light yet refreshing protein appetizer to start off our meal.
Mizuna Salad
A medley of colourful vegetables with crisp and peppery Japanese mustard green and lightly grilled zucchini, dressed with the appetizing light sesame dressing and topped with crispy baby sardine and flying fish roe. I love that savoury crisp combination to the salad.
Charcoal Grilled Seasonal Fish Yukimi Daikon
Fatty and succulent grilled cod fish served with frozen daikon snow and garnished with hana. It was beautifully plated. Though the fish was thin, we still found it 诚意满满！
Wagyu Donabe
Japanese Style Claypot Steamed Rice cooked with umami-laded oxtail broth, covered with yakiniku marinated and seared A5 wagyu beef slices; and topped with a sweet soy-cured egg yolk. The server will mix and serve it to you by portions. There were quite an amount of beef slices and the flavour of the rice was on point, very umami rich!
Nameko Mushroom Miso Soup
Mizu Shingenmochi “Raindrop” Cake
Simple dessert to end the meal with aromatic kinako powder.
