For Refreshing Japanese Shaved Ice On blazing hot days, take shelter in this well-loved Japanese kakigori joint for hand-crafted shaved ice desserts. A crowd-favourite is the Uji Matcha Brûlée (RM17) that conceals soft red beans within a mountain of matcha shaved ice, crowned with creamy brulee custard. Burppler Alyssia Yu also recommends the Houjicha (RM17), a nutty version that comes with candied chestnuts and garnished with a drizzle of kinako (roasted soybean) milk. You'll also find hot Japanese treats on the menu like the Warabimochi (RM14), a chewy jelly-like snack that's covered in either matcha or kinako powder. Photo by Burppler Calie Tang

Uji Matcha What to do on weekend after a satisfying meal? Of course dessert! We were too full to eat anything filling, thus came to this shaved ice. Had the most simple uji matcha shaved ice. There is a layer of red beans cooked till soft sandwiched in between the equally soft ice. Adding kinako milk is a plus to the ice, it was that perfect match of roasted bean flavor with slightly bitter matcha. Love this truely. Price: RM17, Food: 9/10 **I love the concept of the store to make collection point part of the shop decoration. The ice fits perfectly into the deco, many customers unable to find their food when number is called. Nice design.

For a Fantastic Mentai Rice Bowl Four years on and this casual Japanese eatery in Plaza Damas still rakes in the masses for their famed Mentai Rice (RM19). Look forward to thick slabs of tamago veiled in creamy flamed mentai, which Burppler Joey Tee dubs as "absolutely delicious and addictive". Burppler Carmen Chan recommends pairing it with the Grilled Squid (RM25). Sashimi fans, order the Uokatsu Don (RM29) featuring fresh chunks of sashimi and a handful of seaweed.

Favourite mentai rice (Rating:5/5🌟) This place is my favourite place for Japanese casual meal. Absolutely delicious and addictive. Mentai Rice (rm19) Basically Pollock roe, the salted roe of Alaska Pollock on tamago on a bed of rice. Simply and yet delicious! I completely fell in love with this dish 😍 Grilled whole Japanese squid (rm24) was good as well. Teriyaki cod (rm50+) medium size was not bad but not worth the price.

A balanced meal, I would say 🤣. . . My favourite mentai rice, with lots and lots of cabbage and sashimi. . . You will be surprised by the crowd here... and then you think: strategic location is not really important, if your food is real good. . . #chienfoodhuntadventure #neverknowhowtostopeating#burpple#burpplekl#uokatsu#mentairice#japanese#plazadamas3
