Yutaka Japanese Restaurant @ Solaris Mont Kiara

Returning to Yutaka at Solaris Mont Kiara. Earlier entry: April 9.

Taking a risk on the RM180+ chef's selection of sashimi might pay off ...

... with nine varieties of seafood, each served in tantalizing threesomes ...

... that might surface in the shape of tuna belly ...

... or shrimp, scallops, amberjack & all manner of finny fish ...

... including the likes of salmon, both the belly ...

... as well as its explode-in-the-mouth roe.

Yukata's chef isn't Japanese (he's ethnic Chinese), but we can't tell. Not based on the food.

Note that Yutaka is a pork-loving outlet, also serving everything from pork skewers to tonkatsu.

Speaking of skewers, here are some belly-good helpings, terrific tuna belly ...

... & a succulent salmon one, made tangy with a little bit of lemon.

Sake or green tea? We know which one we're choosing.

Bonus booze: Suzune Wabi sparkling sake. Only 5 percent alcohol, practically beer-like, but more practically, better than nothing.
