One thing good about been early to a restaurant is that You can have the freedom to snap every nook and corner you want without getting stares :D
Today I am going to review about Suki-Ya.
Is been a long time I want to do a Review about it.
Things to take note:
Firstly : You are only limited to two hours of dining limit.
Secondly : RM3.5 will be charged for every 15 mins after 2 hours
Thirdly : You only get to choose two soup base.
There are 4 options to choose from:
Kimuchi
A midly spicy soup made with authentic Kimichi base, spicy Miso and various vegetable base.
( In my opinion is not spicy, is just that when the soup boiled, it taste hot)
Sukiyaki
Cooked in a sweetened soy-sauce broth
Miso Soup
Miso is made from fermented soybeans
Shabu-Shabu
Low calories and light on the palate.
For those who likes a slightly bland taste.
And I always choose Kimchi and Sukiyaki ><
Kinda rigid pattern.. I am just too used in ordering the same soup base.
Weird thing is I never got bored over it !
Beside that you can choose any 3 types of meat either chicken, beef and lamb.
Mmmm.... this is where you can try to eat up as much as you can to make the price tag worth it.
But then again, no matter how much you eat, you will never beat them if not they probably would not survive that long. So a tips for you all : Don't try to beat Suki-Ya haha....
Beef Slices
Lamb Slices
Chicken Slices
Varieties of Vegetables to choose from.
I noticed they didn't label the vegetables name in English but in Japanese.
I guess all those were common vegetables that anyone should know :)
Were proud of myself at one moment when I could read almost all the vegetables name in Japanese hehe..!
Selection of Sushi
Eggs...
Few types of sauce, wasabi and ginger slices.
3 types of salad dressing.
3 selections of Ice Cream to choose from :
Green Tea, Chocolate and mixture of both.
4 selection of Toppings.
Chose either cone or cup.
Time to Hok Chak !! (Hokkien words mean Eat !)
Two sauces to dip your food.
Really like the Chilli Sauce ! Very nice :D
I always believed that whenever I am in a Buffet Session I will not picked any cheap selection such as enoki vegetable and so on. Note : Enoki one pack worth only RM 1.5 or sometimes even cheaper.
But whenever I went to Suki-Ya I would take the enoki and put onto Sukiyaki soup base.
It taste delicious ! argh...
Overall :
Taste : 6.7
Value : 6.5
Service: 7
Total : 6.73
I do think Suki-Ya is one of the most worth while choice to make whenever you decide to eat Steamboat. It has a good ambience, services, value and food overall. Best place to hang out with your family and friends. Eating in Steamboat style do sometimes get the chat along :)
A Few Comments
I have been to Suki-Ya for a total of 4 visits between mid 2013 and 2014.
Twice in Pavilion, once in Mont Kiara and once in Paradigm Mall.
A few comments about these 3 outlets :
Pavilion outlets : Very pack and long queue always during lunch and dinner time. Ice cream tends to be watery due to too many demand. The ice cream machine can't keep up with the flow. Nevertheless service is fast and efficient.
Mont Kiara outlets : The slices of meat were very much thicker compare to Pavilion and Paradigm Mall outlets. Too chewy for me.. would prefer thinner slices. Due to the inflow of customer were much lesser than Pavilion and Paradigm Mall outlets, the sushi rice had become rather dry.Nevertheless the service were fast and efficient.
Paradigm Mall outlets : The slices of meat were perfect but service were a bit slow.
