A Taiping guy personal rants and Malaysia Food blog
Recently I was too busy with my personal stuff and didn’t have time to update my food blog, it’s because I’ve to help my gf’s brother in his wedding. I became his “brother” on last Sunday morning, it was quite fun and I enjoyed it.
Weeks ago, I had my tea time at Sushi Zanmai in One-Utama. Sushi Zanmai and Pasta Zanmai is the same restaurant but they separate to two, Sushi Zanmai sells Sushi, while Pasta Zanmai sells Pasta. I’ve dined in Pasta Zanmai for few times before, I love their Chicken Cheesy Pasta and Teri Chicken Pizza. So, I went to Sushi Zanmai for my tea break, we’d tried some of the Sushi only. They have other outlets in The Gardens and Sunway Pyramid as well.

* Una Tama, Inari & Tuna Salad – I simply like the Una Tama, it consists of unagi & Omelette. The Inari Sushi consists of sweet beancurd, not too sweet and quite nice.


* FutoMaki – It consists of pickled radish, omelettle & cucumber. All the ingredients are fresh.

* Chicken Gyoza – It’s pan-seared chicken & vegetable dumpling. You can actually get this dishes from other restaurant such as Hong Kong Restaurant, the price is cheaper than this. I can even get it in Ming Tien Hawker Center.

* Salmon Salad Maki – I didn’t have it, my gf’s sister ordered it. But the outlook seems nice, should be nice to eat.

* California Roll – It consists of avocado, crab meat & omelette with smelt roe. My gf ordered it. She said all the ingredients are fresh and it’s delicious.



* Wet Tissue which has their logo and name.

* Menu

* This is the thing that I wanna show you, it’s located at the last page of the menu. It stated “Actual food presentation may differ from picture“. I just want to say that they’re actually very honest about it, all the foods served were really different from the pictures, all the foods served were smaller than the pictures.

* There is many types of sushi for your choices.

* Just a shot from the menu.






They have variety of sushi and dishes, we were just trying their sushi as our tea break. It was just okay, but you can have a try over there as well. The price is slightly cheaper than other Japanese Restaurant, but the price is equal to the size of foods. So, have you dined in Sushi Zanmai before?

@Feli, in term of taste, I would say that all of them are okay. In term of sizes of sushi, Sushi King or Sakae Sushi are better. In term of prices, Sushi Zanmai is better. So, you just get what you pay for. You can actually try Sushi Zanmai, not a bad choice. Do let me know how you feel it after you trying okay?

@Vivien, haha I love sushi as well, I have about years didn’t go to Sushi King already, so I totally forgot the taste. Sushi zanmai is quite okay, just the sizes of foods have to improve. Which outlet usually you go ?

Great! I love sushi very much too, but I don’t take raw food, is a waste right?
I’m not very sure that Sushi Zanmai is a halal restaurant, but I could check it and update you about this.
Thanks Julia! Hope to see you again here!

The outlet at The Gardens is almost always fullhouse. I’ve never eaten here before. Because I think I’ll need to spend at least RM20 to satisfy my hunger.

@Fonterra Malaysia,

You’re right, RM20 is really not enough to satisfy your hunger. With that said, if you would like to enjoy the meal and feed your stomach, you need at least RM30-50 or above. You’ll be able to order a set of sushi or dishes with RM30-50, and their sushi is slightly smaller than other Sushi Restaurant, but good taste.
Can take a try, we always have to try new things, right?
Nice to meet you Fonterra Malaysia!

I dont know if i was in bad day or not, but before i eat in Sushi Zanmai, i eat in the paviliun, the sushi also taste not fresh anymore. If you see all the chefs changes. Not like before. Maybe someone feel it also?
