Kampachi @ Pavilion KL
It was one of those spontaneous moments when JFKA wannabe, Nipples, asked me to join him for dinner at the latest mall in town and I said yes. I wanted to eat at Kampachi, and he didn't mind eating at Kampachi again, so it was an easy decision to make. After all, I never say no to Japanese food.
Getting a table wasn't very difficult on a weekday night, but we chose to sit at the sushi bar instead, hoping to catch a glimpse of some of the action behind the counter. We were not disappointed. 2 little plates of seasoned baby octopus were placed in front of us. I loved the sweet and savoury dish which went down in an instant.
Since Nipples didn't get a chance to eat soba on his first visit to Kampachi, this was his obvious choice. His cold soba served with crisp nori came with a tsuyu broth with raw quail's egg and chopped spring onions.
His set also came with tempura and grilled fish. If I'm not mistaken, it cost a little over RM30. He seemed quite pleased with his meal.
I took the sushi and sashimi bento (RM40). What I like about the sashimi is that they were generous portions - thick cut and very fresh.
It also came with grilled unagi (eel). Aaaah. Despite the unadventurous orders, this was comfort food for us. The food's good. The prices are reasonable. The ingredients are fresh. Definitely worth a second visit.

another place i've been meaning to visit in pavilion... everything looks good!
so does it mean i have passed the interview?? kekeke...
passed by kampachi yesterday around 1 pm. since it was quite empty, i thought the food was only so-so. looks like i was wrong! it's time for my kampachi debut, hehe...
budget aside, whr's the best place for jap in town? i'll be gng home soon, so i thought i'd seek the trusted opinion of the jfka president ;p
So delicious, a definitely well spot on japanese restaurant that will never go wrong!
Somehow during my last visit, the soba was abit disappointing, not cold n springy enoh. Maybe the expectation was way too high when they claim that their noodles are all homemade. Other than that the food was decent, i love their grilled puffer fish :)
lovely presentation!
hahaha, mrnipples !! ROFL....
The grilled fish looks kinda small in portion.
Madam President, when is the JFKA Committee meeting going to be held???
prices are so reasonable !!
considering the fact that it is located in a posh mall ~ ^_^
I went there yesterday and the food was good! A re-visit for sure :) Love the poshy environment :)
Drool! Now I want those yummy sushis!
hey looks like fun!!
I'll sing it again ..."Turning Japanese, I think you're turning Japanese..." Hehe...
waaaaaa... wai u din take me to eet sushi last taim? waaaaaaaaa...
Hmm... do you think it'd be a nice place to take a date to? Or would my favourite unagi totally ruin my breath and chances of a goodnight kiss? Lol.
Btw, how come we never go nipponmakan-ing before? You such a big fan of nipponmakan and all... :P
You could educate me, my dear...
