senjyu1

Thanks to Frankie of Senjyu for invitation to sample some of the best Senjyu has to offer. We were generously fed and go home satisfied 🙂 I was hesistant of eating japanese food as the recent earthquake/tsumani in Japan, which has caused some radiation concern on food from Japan (the tsunami caused a nuclear reactor to be leaking radioactive water etc) Nonetheless, much relieved after we were told none of Senjyu food is imported from Japan…

Above is Sushi Moriawase (2 pax) RM38, assortment of raw salmon, tuna, butterfish, cuttlefish and surf clam, fresh and thickly sliced

senjyu2-salad

Lobster salad and fresh vege served with house ponzu dressing, RM22

senjyu3-unagi

One of their seafood specials – River eel served on hot plate, RM22, loved this, it is made of fresh live eel with its natural sweetness, yummy~

senjyu4-carpacio

Carpaccio Moriawase, RM22, perhaps this is a fusion of french/Italian with japanese/chinese(with thin ginger sliver on the fish). The sauce should be poured on to the fish from right to left, in the sequence of soy sauce, sesame, spicy chili oil, sake and ponzu sauce. I am just okay with this as not too fond of fusion

senjyu5-oyster

Trio oyster, RM45, fresh live oyster sashimi, grilled oyster with cod fish roe and simmered oyster with broth. My favourite being the fresh oyster sashimi, it is sweet without being slimy, yum~ the cod fish roe mayo topping is also delicious too.

senjyu6-shrimp

Live tiger prawn sashimi, from Vietnam, RM16, firm and fresh tasting

senjyu7-maki

Foie gras and oyster maki, RM28, 2 pieces are topped with oyster, while the other 2 are topped with foie gras

senjyu8-tempura

Tempura Moriawase, RM38, find it a tad oily and prawn flesh a bit floury.

senjyu9-beef

Wagyu Saikoro Steak, RM68. This a marble score 6 beef from Australia. Marble score ranging from 1 to 12 with 12 being the best having the best fat distribution which makes it having the melt-in-the-mouth feel.

senjyu10-dessert

Love their dessert, the left is coffee jelly topped with vanilla ice cream(RM8), to the right is japanese plum wine jelly with grape (RM10)

senjyu11-seafood

Some of their seafood specials: tiger prawn sashimi, clam in miso soup, river eel served on hot plate, japanese escargot sauteed in garlic butter, lobster grilled with cod fish roe, clam grilled with cheese and cod fish roe.

senjyu12-omakase

They also have omakase menu with pricing of about RM120 per pax

Note, 16 May 2015: Mizu in TTDI Plaza already closed down some time back

Mizu1-TTDI-Plaza

Mizu is located in TTDI Plaza, Taman Tun Dr Ismail, their Saturdays ala-carte lunch buffet priced at RM50++(RM58 nett) is among one of the cheapest Japanese buffet around.

Mizu2-TTDI-Plaza

located on 2nd floor

Mizu3-TTDI-Plaza

They have lunch buffet on Saturdays and Sundays, 12 noon to 3pm

Mizu4-Buffet

Mizu5-Menu

Order sheet

Mizu6-Appetizer

Yummy potato salad, edamame is a bit dry and not warm, chuka idako squid and tamago. Food here are served in tiny portion, 2 portion of tamago egg literally means 2 pieces of it. I like this as it enables me more stomach space for other items.

Mizu7-Sashimi

fatty salmon sashimi, tuna sashimi, yellow tail and white tuna, all yummy

Mizu8-Chawanmushi

chawanmushi steamed egg is delicious as well, but my top is still those from Munakata 😛

Mizu9-soft-shell-crab-salad

soft shelled crab salad is so so

Mizu10-Hand-Rolls

Mizu11-Maki

Mizu maki(front) and soft shelled crab maki at the back

Ebi tempura, wish it is less oily

Mizu13-Grilled

Grilled Unagi Eel and grilled Salmon

Mizu14-Shishamo

Shishamo is nice

Mizu15-Complimentary-Carpacio

Complementary Salmon Carpacio from the sushi chef is yummy

Mizu16-Seafood-Fried-Rice

Seafood fried rice which i didn’t try as i was stuffed by then

Mizu17-Teppanyaki-Scallop

Teppanyaki scallop, kinda rubbery and tasteless(without the sweetness from seafood)

Mizu18-Ice-Cream

love their house-made black sesame(goma) and green tea ice cream

Mizu19-Fresh-Fruits

Fresh fruits

Overall, i like the tiny portions and quality of their food. In comparison with a similar japanese buffet offering-Maiu or Umaiya, i will prefer Mizu over them.

Didn’t see any tempura prawn, breaded scallop during our visit.
