Kura Japanese Restaurant
Everytime we have an occasion to celebrate, be it a birthday, anniversary, reunion and we feel like Japanese and feel like spurging abit, we head on down to Kura Japanese Restaurant in One World Hotel.
We love coming here because we know the quality of food we are getting is top notch. Everytime we go there we are never disappointed by the quality of food or the service. Plus, I personally like the ambience. Once we set foot in the restaurant we are greeted by all the staff including the chefs as we make our way to our seats. It feels like we are coming home.
Most of the time when we eat here we go for the set dinners because its value for money. All the sets comes with a salad, chawan mushi ( steamed egg), appetizer, main meal, miso soup and dessert. The sets range approximately from RM25 to RM80. And they are generous with their servings. The most expensive sets are big enough to serve 2 people.
Our orders that night include
Zakuro Chirashi Zen RM35
Yakiniku Zen RM42
Sushi and Tempura Zen RM48
Zakura Chirashi Zen
As usual, whenever I eat at a Japanese joint I will order the meal with the most sashimi. In this case it was the Chirashi zen set, it is basically was a giant bowl of sushi, topped with all the sashimi I can get. It had salmon, tuna, mackerel, butterfish, prawns, squid…mmmm. You get the picture right? The starter that night was Japanese tofu, which was really soft that almost melts in your mouth. Delicious.
Sushi and Tempura set
My cousin ordered the sushi and tempura set, and you can see how much they gave. Seven pieces of sushi with thick slices of fish and a big plate of tempura, together with rice and steamed egg. She was struggling to finish this. But it was really good. Everything was very fresh.
Yakiniku Zen
My dad ordered the Yakiniku Beef set. Yakiniku in Japanese basically means grilled meat. The beef was done perfectly. It was very very tender , thats all that needs to be said.
As usual, we walked away from Kura feeling ’stuffed’ but contented. A good meal all in all. Writing it makes me want to go back again. Lets see when the next occasion coming up…..

I love Kura. It’s my favourite lunch haunt not because I can get the 10% discount, but the ingredients are fresh and the quality is superbly good. Oh btw, my bro, a See Hoy Chan staffer, he gets 15% discount!!! Not fair!
