DASHI DINING SAYA | ISETAN THE JAPAN STORE
Ever since the Nihon empire has widened its Eastern
influence specifically in the heart of the Golden Triangle at Isetan The Japan Store, Lot 10 Shopping
Mall, our visit to the mall has become almost a weekly routine where we would
usually explore the many authentic recipes from Japan to titillate (or inspire)
our local palates more.
After our recent sumptuous omakase course at Sushi Azabuat The Table, 4F, we are more eager now and gear up for further anticipation
on what this exquisite enclave got to offer. And this leads us to the next
pitstop- Dashi Dining Saya and Dashi Delica Saya.
Itatakimas!!!
These 2 stores actually operate under the same organization which
have already garnered good reputation from its massive Hong Kong expansion;
that allows you to cross order your preferred menu.
As Dashi Delica Saya is
serving homey side dishes where the Japanese folks usually enjoy, diners of Dashi Dining Saya could actually call
for ala carte add-ons from its neighbouring stores should you feel like
indulging more on their tempting side dishes which includes the fruity Tomato with Apple Jerry that happens to
be my favourite! Or you could also choose to take away the products to be
enjoyed at home later too.
So, after browsing the many alluring nosh deliciously laying in
front of us, we popped over to Dashi
Dining Saya for a good dinner session on a Friday night (also to avoid the
Friday jam of course ^_^).
The environment was calm and soothing, subtly imbued with
Zen-ness, that eventuallyl led to a sensuous wholesome dining.
Dashi Dining Saya offers a selection of hearty yet salubrious selections to warm up
your tummy, especially on a rainy evening. Hence, naturally Chazuke becomes one
of our selections apart from the vibrantly beckoning Take Set, that comes with
a bowl of rice and miso soup.
Here, presenting to you theJapanese soul food “Dashi Chazuke”
RICE WITH HOT DASHI
SOUP GRILLED SALMON FLAKE (MYR 27)
Marvelous collaboration of Saya’s special Dashi Soup and Japanese hot steamed rice topped with selected ingredients.
You could choose the amount of rice that you wish, from the default small (200g) or medium (250g) and large (300g) at just additional MYR 2 and MYR 3 each.
TAKE SET (MYR 38)
It comes with a bowl of white rice and warm miso soup.
Fried Chicken ‘Saya Style'
Love each of those tender bites, so juicy and crispy but not oily!
Tofu And Kinoko Mushroom With Daishi Sauce
Another of my fave- mild but flavourful,thanks to its dashi stock-infused sauce.
Ichiban!
Japanese Traditional Stew ‘Chikuzenni’
This classic Japanese (Nishime) dishes which includes carrot, sweet potatoes and yam, somehow reminds me of our familiar Chinese simmered recipes- comes with a well-balanced of savory sweetness that is simply awesome!
Tomato With Apple Jelly (or Dashi Ginger On
Other Days)
Here comes my creme de la creme amongst the candidates for its light and fruitiness!
Hokkaido Beef Croquette
Being a person who seldom fancy fried stuff- fear of its oiliness, but this Japanese croquette changed my mind. Apart from the skillful chef who fry it, the ingredients itself are nicely assembled and mashed, yum!
Grilled Mackerel With Eryngii Mushroom ‘Saya’ Style
STEAMED EGG AND DASHI
SOUP ‘SAYA STYLE’ (MYR 7) & GREEN TEA (MYR 3)
If you are a small eater, then Ume Set will be ideal choice
as it comes in 4 portions, which is just nice.
In a nutshell, we find the dishes here were lovely and
delectable, besides the fact that they are uber healthy and nourishing
especially the umami taste!
What is umami?
Having been long dubbed as the ‘fifth taste’ by the insiders
of food industry, and regarded as an obscure culinary concept that often described
of having a meaty, savory and satisfying taste, the Japanese has found the best
way to derive this subtle flavor by extracting the umami from flaked dried
bonito and Kombu (dried kelp or sea tangle) over slow boiling. Sound tedious
but fret not, as now you could savour it conveniently from Dashi Dining Saya here.
