Far deep inward the F&B commons of Lembah Permai is a nutrient courtroom consists of local hawker fare equally good equally international cuisine. One detail corner stall sees a steady regular patrons hovering the mutual surface area correct inward front end of the stall would live on Den Local Japanese Food- a humble as well as unpretentious restaurant manned yesteryear a immature dyad alongside Japanese speaking-accent (which I presumed they are Japanese or at least, either i of them is). It does non accept a long fourth dimension to read the menu, which is clearly written on a wall-mounted blackboard alongside prices illustrated side yesteryear side to the names of the dishes. There are solely a few Rice dishes available equally good equally 2 sides. Taco Rice as well as Japanese Curry (with Pork Cutlet) are about of the regulars' favorites; the immature dyad runs the draw concern alongside Japanese attitude- all dishes must live on brilliantly presented inward an artsy mode as well as the agency of serving the dish is likewise meticulously idea of. No sophisticated setting (just similar an ordinary hawker place), Den Local Japanese Food encourages the provide of diners yesteryear carefully pricing their dishes (with nearly dishes priced nether the Rm fifteen mark) as well as serving the best they could.
Many opted for their Japanese Curry Pork Cutlet Set (Rm 13) but nosotros did non desire something heavy as well as nosotros were inward the involvement to instruct for their Japanese Curry Rice (Rm 7.50/ small). Chicken pieces were used instead of a huge slab of Deep Fried Japanese Pork Cutlet. It was nicely presented alongside dissimilar color-elements artfully placed over the dish. The Japanese Curry had an indelible sweetness, potentially extracted from Onions (or possibly Apples?)... alongside a Peppery after-taste. The thickness was perfect as well as everything was deftly seasoned to the correct spot, beautifully complementing the Rice as well as crunchy greens. The modest component subdivision was to a greater extent than than sufficient for me as well as it comes alongside a unloosen bowl of Miso Soup.
Den brought inward i of the clever inventions of the Okinawans- Okinawa Taco Rice (Rm 7.50/ small), said to live on the outset as well as solely on the island; Den's Taco Rice had Japanese Rice equally base of operations patch the Tomato-Minced Pork concoction put on a raft of julienned Cabbage, jeweled alongside a spoonful of Tomato Puree as well as sprinkled alongside Cheese Powder. It tasted precisely similar Taco but alongside a slightly dissimilar texture. The Tomato Puree adds a refreshing behavior on to the dish yesteryear introducing about other layer of acidity... refreshing even as well as then substantial.
