Fukuya (Kuala Lumpur)


Fukuya is popular for its kaiseki set (traditional multi-course Japanese meal), where dishes are determined by the chef who will serve ingredients that are fresh for the season.  Therefore, there will always be a surprise. Customers should inform the staff if there are any ingredients to avoid, e.g. beef, nuts, etc.  The lunch set comprise 7 courses (excluding dessert) covering various ways of cooking (appetiser, soup, sashimi, grilled, simmered, fried, etc), whilst dinner has 9 courses.  There are also many other ala carte options to choose from.


The 7-course Mini Kaiseki set is more than enough for an average person and each are served individually one after the other, so that one will have time to enjoy each and every dish that is served.  Portions are typical of a fine dining meal and yet creatively presented.  The friendly staff will explain as each dishes are served.  Some interesting dishes to note are the bite-size mousse that tastes like sea urchin and the chawanmushi with a small portion of sharks fin on top.  Sashimi slices are generously thick, fresh and accompanied by freshly grounded wasabi.  All these for only RM65++.


Another lunch set worth trying is the Fuku-Fuku set which come with a choice of two mains and it comes along appetiser, salad, chawanmushi, rice, pickles, miso soup and dessert.  The cube cut beef steak is tender and moist and come with a unique orange sauce.


WILL WE COME BACK? - Yes
(being surprised at each visit as what's fresh for the season are served and presented in a creative and artistic way)
