Seadanya saja Toku Zen ni... (The modest Toku Zen)

Assalamualaikum.....


Dah lama tak cerita pasal makan2. Mood pun melayang.... Oh, kita ada shawl yang best nak dikongsikan dengan semua pembaca. Nantilah cerita yer.... Isnin ni semuanya lemau, so kena boost up dengan makanan sikit.

Salah satu hujung minggu yang lepas, hubby ada kursus. Maka kita merayau2 seorang diri di Kuantan. Salah satu persinggahan ialah Berjaya Mall. Ada nak beli barang sikit dan nak shopping buku di Popular. Keluar dari Popular, memang dah waktu makan. Malas nak bersesak kat tempat lain. Nampak restoran Toku Zen ni. Customer tak ramai. So, boleh makan santai2 sambil membaca kat situ. Kita memang sukaaaa membaca kalau makan sorang2.

 Inilah buku menunya. Kecik jer...tapi boleh lah.....

Malas nak pilih2. Makan Bento set salmon jer. Ada sayur, ada ikan, ada nasi, ada desert, ada sup. Complete set. Boleh lah....

Salmon dia ok2 jer. Agak kering, tapi tak adalah sampai tak ada rasa. Sayur dia...aduhaiiii...kering kecut layu. Yang betul2 ok, daun salad 2 keping dengan hirisan timun 3 keping tu jer. Tak nak membazir, telan jer. Lagipun sayur penting untuk kesihatan. Miso sup, sangatttt masin. Buat basahkan nasi boleh la... Chawanmushi pun tak berapa outstanding. Bolehlahhh kalau nak makan....

Komplin itu ini, begitu begini pun, Alhamdulillah mengenyangkan juga. Cuma, kalau nak value for money, kita akan pilih Sushi King kot....



English Version

While hubby was attending a training few weeks ago, I took my own sweet time touring around Kuantan. One of the stops was Berjaya Mall. I was looking for some necessities and some books as well. The moment I stepped out from the bookstore, it was lunch hour. I am not comfortable being in a crowded place, thus I scanned the mall and saw this Toku Zen, a Japanese restaurant. I have never eaten here, so this might be a good chance for me to explore. There were a lot of empty space in the restaurant.  A good place for me to eat my lunch slowly and enjoy my books there.

I requested a bento set. Nothing extravaganza. A simple meal set with grilled salmon, a bowl of rice, a bowl of salad, miso soup and chawanmushi. 

The salmon was a bit dry, but it was till acceptable. The salad...sooo dried up. The only fresh vegies were the 2 slices of lettuce and 3 slices of cucumber. I kept on telling myself to finish it otherwise it's going to be waste. Plus, vegies are good for our health. The miso soup broth was salty and the chawanmushi was moderate. 

I managed to finished the meal..slowly and hardly. Alhamdulillah, at least I got food to eat. But for value, I would go for Sushi King next time....
