Kyudon (Johor Bahru)

While most of the time we come to JB for decent local foods, but of course there’s also some other options in the city as well.

So if you are searching for Japanese foods at the city area, Kyudon could be one of your considerations.

Serving authentic Japanese foods here and I found this on the menu. Which seldom find in many places.

Suitable for people who don’t like spicy foods. The pumpkin curry taste sweet while retaining the spice of curry.

It comes with big portion of rice at the bottom, accompanied by salad and pieces of juicy chicken meat.

Miso soup is provided.

Recently experienced Kyudon's budget-friendly omakase along Jalan Dhoby in JB, treating ourselves to a lineup of nine dishes

(Excuse the simplified names, can’t rmb what the chef told us 😅)
- Torched Tuna
- Sashimi platter
- Aburi salmon and foie gras sushi
- Ebi sushi
- Unagi sushi
- Unagi bao
- Miso soup
- Salmon and avo roll
- Burnt matcha cheesecake

Personal favorites were the aburi salmon and unagi bao, both showcasing seared foie gras. The rich, velvety texture of the duck liver elevated each bite, and that halved bao is certainly more than a mouthful (lol)

The torched tuna had a meaty flavor heightened by its sauce, and the unagi was perfectly cooked with its delicate charred hints

Raw seafood, especially the amaebi, fell slightly short, missing that perfect sweet note we were anticipating. On a positive note, the salmon, scallop and ikura maintained their usual excellence

Our chef is friendly yet slightly shy - I reckon a bit more interaction would have enhanced our omakase experience

Overall, Kyudon's offering remains a good value for money. We were very very full 😆
