Jason's Food Haven

My last visit to the Sushi Zento at the Festival Walk in Ipoh was more than a year ago and my elder sister decided to give the family a treat at the Sushi Zento after she got her master study grant money from the government last week. And so we were shown to our seat by the waitress. One thing I find it a bit funny is that the Sushi Zento here is almost full every time we came, and we were slotted around one hour for our table as the table was booked. Anyway, it's an hour window time, so we place our order and since I've ordered Kimuchi ramen during my last visit to this outlet, I decided to order something else - and I found that the Sukiyaki looks quite interesting in the menu and so I ordered the Sukiyaki set.

This year, we celebrated our father's birthday at the Treasure Pot Restaurant in Ipoh. The restaurant is located in the newly developed leisure zone in Ipoh Garden East - the Festival Walk. We come out with the plan to have the dinner celebration here is because we recall the smell of Sichuan's food whenever we pass by the restaurant whenever we had our dinner somewhere nearby the restaurant, and also because my father likes to have steamboat. We order the set for six, with two types of soup - spicy and herbs. I remember it was called the Yin Yang soup in China.

Whenever we mentioned Japanese food, the first thing that come into our mind will be sushi. I must agree that the sushi that I had with my family at the Sushi Zento is nice, but I'm not going to blog about the sushi at the Sushi Zento, instead, I will blog about the Kimuchi Ramen that I had as the main course. The overall presentation of the Kimuchi Ramen is good and it looks tasty and you will feel like eating it from just the look of it. The Ramen soup is kimchi soup, although it is not as sour as the normal kimchi that I had previously with some sesame seeds on top of the soup. The kimchi soup is not too spicy, which means it is suitable for even those who do not like spicy food.
