Getting one year older...

Yesterday was my birthday...So, my hubby suggest Japanese cuisine seems it is my favourite food...In my hometown here, only got 1 japanese restaurant...Edo Ichi Japanese Restaurant...Everytime i visit this restaurant, for sure i will order dinner set which consist of main dish, salad, steam egg, fruits & sushi...coz i want to have everythg so better choose set...value for money...
Unfortunately, I got stomach acidic problem, so I can't eat sushi (got vinegar inside the sushi rice)... No point for me to choose set dinner... & my hubby dun prefer sushi... So, we stick to ala carte... I juz order somethg vy normal & healthy...Fried Seafood Udon...

Yaki Udon RM12

Taste wise, nothg special... It consist of prawns, squids, beansprouts, pea shoots ('dou miao' in mandarin)& bonito flakes...Seems like dry fried noodle in chinese style but in different taste...
My hubby order Chicken Katsu Don...


Chicken Katsu Don RM15

Comment from my hubby, it look like chinese style Lemon Chicken Chop Rice...The different is the sauce... Very ordinary dish again... It come with a bowl of seaweed soup...
Other side dishes we order are Unagi Kabayaki & Yakitori...


Unagi kabayaki RM28


Yakitori RM8

My favourite dishes last nite should be Unagi...Yummy yummy if eat with rice...but i order noodle so juz eat with noodle lor...
Yakitori also not bad...actually it got 3 sticks...once it served at our table, both of us straight away grab a stick & ate it...After that, i juz remember to took photo of it...Sorry...Yakitori similar to chicken skewer....It consist of chicken thigh meat & leek...
Finally, complimentary of a scoop of vanilla ice-cream sprinkle with macha powder...i prefer green tea flavour instead of vanilla...so bad, they dun serve it...
Summary, the foods in this restaurant juz average... The service oso average (note: i hate those waitress or waiter stand near our table & look at us while we were having dinner...it really annoyed us)... Their menu got vy limited choice... Really can't compare with those KL Japanese Restaurant that review by food bloggers...
Anyway, even though the foods juz ordinary, I oredy feel satisfy & happy because my hubby can spend times to celebrate my birthday (he supposed to work OT but chg shift with his collegue)....
Sorry for the bad quality pictures...Because of the dim light in that restaurant...

Happy belated Raya Aidilfitri!
