unwind a little while, accompanied by a salmagundi of deliciously grilled
skewered treats at Ri Yakitori, under the good hands of Chef Isao, who has joined St Giles bandwagon recently.
With a refined sense of style and contemporary touches, Ri-Yakitori delivers inventive and
traditional takes on Japanese Yakitori such as skewers of juicy chicken, tender beef and fresh vegetables, just to name a few, served alongside classic Japanese dishes as well.
One of the latest addition to be introduced to epicurean this quarter, grilled chicken meat with special tangy sauce.
Sizeable prawns are lighted coated with tempura and fried till golden brown. Crispy on the outside and remain soft and succulent within. Best eaten while hot for the crispy kick or dip into some tempura sauce should you prefer some moisture to your seafood fritters.
Tender chicken meat grilled to perfection with crunchy cuts of capsicums and leek, served with teriyaki sauce. Nicely flavoured and not overly done.
From the foreground; MOMO (Chicken thigh –MYR 10), TEBA (Chicken Wings- MYR 10) and KAWA (Chicken Skin MYR 6), served with yakitori tare sauce.
(For Muslim customers, this step of using sake would be excluded, so worry not ^^)
Juicy homemade chicken meatball served with teriyaki sauce and mustard paste at the side.
Presented in the oblong-shaped unconventionally, this toothsome meatball does not compromise on the gustation, but continues tickle your taste bud with the unmistakably bounciness and juicy-packed patty. You could now temporarily forget about your mundane foot-long sausage I suppose (=
Cubes of juicy chicken breast served with bainiku sauce and oba leave.
I quite like the zesty taste projected by the umeboshi relish (popular pickled plum paste in Japan), that give the dish a balanced mixture of both sour and salty.
One of the most homey Japanese food. A hearty bowl of salmon rice soup, served with laces of salmon meat and Japanese pickles as accompaniment.
Special soba noodles served in hot duck broth.
The clear soup broth is indeed a mirthful delight to bask in, would we better if the duck meat is more moist and tender.
Mentaiko Onigiri Rice Ball (MYR 21)
Triangular-shaped Japanese rice ball and served with pickled as well as imported mentaiko paste from Japan.
Another must-have in the house in this Japanese pizza liberally drizzled with savoury tonkatsu sauce. Each bite is mouthwateringly filled up with crisp cabbages generously, in addition to the richness of tonkatsu sauce, seaweed and bonito flakes. Simply an awesome grub from the Land of The Rising Sun!
YUZU SHERBET (MYR 12)
