Rakuzen (Publika)

Pari pari kani salad with their special made dressing. I would prefer sesame dressing more. 🙌🏻

I always do a double take when it comes to F+B chains because I find many struggle to maintain consistency across their outlets, but Rakuzen is an exception (for the record, my favourite outlets are at Publika and Oasis Square). Service is good - not excellent, food is always, always consistent and prices are competitive. My top picks are the Salmon Sashimi Zen (pictured, a set meal comprised of salmon slices, rice, miso soup, chawan mushi, fruit - RM30) and the Shimeji Karaage (battered Shimeji shrooms - RM12) but Rakuzen is an all-rounder and gets the nod from tempura to teppanyaki to fried rice. Here's a tip for KL Japanese food lovers: most restaurants get their fish deliveries on Tuesdays and Fridays - my choice days to place that sashimi order. Bookings always advised.
