Hanare

Hanare: Round Seven. Earlier entries: Feb. 2, Feb. 6, Feb. 8, Feb 10, Feb. 24 & July 1.

Here are more items from Hanare's recently revised menu. We loved the assorted fish cakes, flown in from Tsukiji market. These offered a firm but succulent bite, filled with more flavor compared to regular Chinese-style fish cakes.

Sashimi salad with ponzu sauce. Brimming with the freshest of raw fish available at any Japanese restaurant in KL; no substandard ingredients here.

Wasabi leaves. These lack the spicy pungency of wasabi root, but they make up for it with a refreshingly herbaceous flavor and a fascinating texture _ a cross between celery & spinach.

Hokkaido corn. Very nice; mildly sweet and delicately juicy.

Mentaiko maniacs should adore this potato teppanyaki with spicy cod roe. Absolute comfort food, thanks to the mouthwatering mix of buttery carbs & gooey cheese.

Also marvelous: mentaiko-stuffed omelet. If you think you'll like this, you will (for sure).
