Chicken katsu or the breaded chicken is sakae sushi is very nice too. The succulent and juicy chicken was breaded and deep fried to golden brown. I like the chicken katsu for not being oily, and the chicken skin was slightly crisp. However, i do find that the chicken is slightly fatter than the way i like it. Underneath the breaded chicken skins are a layer of yellowish chicken fats that i don't appreciate.

Sakae chawanmushi is another favorite item i like to order. The chawanmushi has lots of ingredients in it and the steamed egg is really smooth and delicious. I love the shark fins in the chawanmushi, although i doubt it is real shark fin. There was also crabstick, straw mushroom, ginko, and chicken in the steamed egg. The chawanmushi is well seasoned, it will taste slightly salty.

Ika teriyaki, is the grilled squid with teriyaki sauce. I usually order this and managed to finish this on my own. I love the soft grilled squid very much. Even though the squid is grilled, the tecture of the squid remained soft and nice to chew without much efforts. The piece of squid will be cut into approximately five to six pieces and some teriyaki sauce will be brushed on it.

Kaisen Kamameshi is the assorted mixed seafood and musroom rice. The traditional dish is served in an iron pot. There assorted seafood are scalop, prawn, squid ring, abalone, octopus and salmon. The mushroom was the straw mushroom. The seafood were very fresh and tasted sweet and delicious. The kaisen kamameshi is really for any seafood lovers. The rice tasted great with the essence from the seafood.

I only come to appreciate cold noodle not very long ago. All the while i only preferred my noodles to be steaming hot. However, since the restaurant is air conditioned, i don't mind having a portion of cha soba. The cha soba is made from green tea wheat noodles. I love the mild flavor and taste of the green tea, it was very enticing. The cold sauce was light and fragrant. There is a raw quail egg.

The impressive Mizu set was really satisfying. Although priced at RM30.90, i think it is value for money. The Mizu set consists of soft shell crab cooked in spicy tofu sauce, salmon sahsimi, jelly fish, chawan mushi, miso soup and a bowl of rice. I think for this price, this set meal is really worth every penny. The soft shell crab cooked in the spicy tofu sauce was a charm. The crab and the sauce mixed so well. The crab was meaty too.

From the sushi conveyer belt, the jelly fish is easily spotted. The food on the conveyer belt is color coded with the color plates for different price. The jelly fish was very nice. It has a jelly texture, yet it was still crunchy. I love the sweet and spicy taste of the sauce. The sauce is very appetizing. The white sesame seeds added extra texture and flavors in the jelly fish cold dish.

At sakae sushi, their grill salmon was perfectly done. I like the salmon fish grilled with perfection. The salmon was fresh, not over grilled. The salmon was very juicy and some sweet teriyaki sauce was brushed on top of the salmon. The scalop proves to be very delicious too. Although the scallop was not very big, it was fresh. I love the sauce on top of the scallop. The sauce was very creamy.

When it comes to japanese food, i really like the japanese version of deep fried prawn. The prawn tempura does not make me feel guilty eating it. Although the prawn tempura is deep fried, however, it was not oily at all. The batter was light and fluffy. The batter was very mildly seasoned. The crunchy batter was delicious. The prawn was fresh, succulent and juicy.

Sakae Sushi at One Utama is located a the Ground Floor, where all the eateries and traffic are! Good location! Ensuring this particular outlet seems to do brisk business all the time. Freshness is much better that say.. Fahrenheit 88 where customer turnaround is much lower... Their lunch sets are pretty OK, though the portion is smaller. Acceptable I guess, since the prices are lower are well... Anyway I always have my usual favorites here- teriyaki chicken, teriyaki soba, grilled baby octopus,

Sakae sushi green tea comes in a sachetUsually Japanese restaurant have already pre made grren tea in a pot and they refill for youBut sakae sushi has turned into such a fast food shop that they knly five you a sachet and you are supposed to get your own hot waterThat being aaid the green tea still maintained its qualities of being refreshing and fragrant light tea

When I first saw this sushi I thought it was beefAnd I got even excited when I saw it was in a pink plateWhich means this sushi only cost four ringgitBeef is usually expensive so I thought it was a good dealBut actually it was a type of fiah and I think ut is tunaThe chef has sprinkled some sesame seed on the fish slice and some chopped spring onions so the dish looks pleasant

thia salmon sushi was slightly charred to bring out the strong taste of its fatty fleshThen the sushi chef added some cheese thousand island sauce to complete the sushiFor two pieces it is six ringgitBut the thousand island sauce was too strongAnd the salmon was very fishy smellI had to take pieces of ginger after that so that the fishy taste would go away from my mouth

The best part of this dish was definitely that EGG! It was perfectly timed to have a hardened exterior containing the half-boiled inside. I don't usually like egg yolk but this one had an amazing sweetness and it melted wonderfully in my mouth. Wish I could order the egg alone! Second would be the beef which was well marinated and not over cooked. It had sufficient flavour and was still juicy.Apart from that, I don't really fancy the rest of it. The ramen noodles were like overcooked Maggi mee w
