I went to Gurney Plaza today for lunch. At first I was thinking about going to Kim Gary but when I saw the long queue outside the restaurant, my mom asked for other place. Brother wanted to go to Shih Lin but I just had Shih Lin like 2 days ago and in the end we agreed to go to Sakae Sushi on the new wing of Gurney Plaza.

Usually there’s also a queue on Sakae Sushi, but this time was good. There’s a place for 3 of us deep in the restaurant and the sushi moving belt is there too.

Here’s my lunch. A bowl of unagi rice with those Japanese grilled mushroom. I’ve forgotten what it is called. After checking out their website, now I know it is called Unaga Kamameshi. The rice is like claypot rice but the bowl is a steel bowl, and there’s unagi, bushroom and a little bit of egg. Rice is a lot but unagi is little, mushroom taste good, rice taste special and not bad. Though, I just can’t finish the rice.

Soft shell crab crepe. Brother ordered this because of the recommended sign in the menu. It’s little bit crispy inside because of the the soft shell crab, but it’s not anything special to me.

Wednesday is the day where I and my parents will go out for dinner. Typically, on this day, they don’t go to gym nor any sports game nor any meetings. It’s like a family night for us. As for other days, either mom cook for dinner or mom take-away food for me to eat at home.

On one fine Wednesday night, we didn’t know where to eat and I suggested to go for Japanese food as you know I love Japanese food a lot. 2 restaurants came in my mind, the jail theme Japanese restaurant in town or Jurin at Pulau Tikus? This is because this is two of the so many restaurant in Penang that we haven’t visit before. Well, we went to Jurin as it’s near to our house.

It’s a well-decorated Japanese restaurant, you can see through the inside whenever you pass by Belissa Row on Burma Road. Though, I still feel it lack the Japanese feeling. There’s smoking and non-smoking area in the restaurant, which is a good thing as I hate smoke. It stink, it smell, it suck.

Going through the food, we had finally made our order. Dad and mom shared a set and I myself a set. We had a raw salmon sashimi for appertizer. I do not recommend this for order because it’s so expensive for a freaking 6 pieces of raw salmon at RM24.

It’s better for you to order my dinner set which has a grill salmon fish and again 4 slices of salmon sashimi. With vegetables, miso soup and fruits, it’s only RM34. Grill salmon is nicely grill though I prefer it not to be that dry. At least some sauce is pour on it will be better.

Dad and mom’s was a tepanyaki chicken set. They don’t really know well about Japanese food and 1 of which they know is tepanyaki, the Japanese grill and fried plate. They said it was nice and I didn’t try it.

Overall, it’s pretty full after the dinner. Food was nice to eat, but we are not going to order for sashimi next time. It’s expensive!
