With The Berry-licious Stories
After a not-so-satisfying meal as an ending for year 2021, I am glad to have an extraordinary WOW meal in the beginning of 2022. My bff brought me to this humble Japanese restaurant and we were both hooked on it, then we visited another time …
One of the things to do when we cannot travel abroad: look out for nice-looking or themed café to hangout. The Sherry I came across The Sherry from Malaysian Flavours many months ago. The Sherry features a small space with instagrammable vibe, bright looking ambiance …
I can still remember, Year 2020 Azabu’s Sushi X Sake special event was very good and memorable one. Hence, when there was this Xmas special event ads popped up last December, I told my partners-in-crime, let’s do it again!

My first experience with Sushi Azabu
The STEAL Hanakago Lunch Set
Sushi X Sake Vol. 1
There were 2 menus for the special night – Xmas Azabu priced at Rm 380+ and Xmas Omakase priced at Rm 680+. As our pockets were pretty tight, we opted for the Xmas Azabu menu that comes with an appetizer, grilled dish, chawanmushi, nigiri, miso soup and dessert, and… a special Christmas gift.
It was my one and only sushi meal for year 2021, I was quite excited and anticipated for it. Moreover, with my awesome experience in 2020’s Sushi X Sake special event, I was really really looking forwards it… but… the experience was not what I expected. There were hits and misses throughout the course. Not to say very disappointing but rather not satisfying. The neta for the night were quite interesting, but it couldn’t save the meal’s experience (that’s my personal opinion). The sushi were very small and tiny and the neta were all thinly sliced. The shari was still flavourful, but it was soft and not firm. Chef noticed my expression (I guessed) when I first popped in the sushi, he was trying to save the next few. He put in efforts and did his best, I appreciated that very much.

Neutrals
Located in TTDI, Neutrals a brilliant collaboration between the two local artisanal F&B companies – The Roast Things Coffee Roaster and my favourite café Stand by Sunbather Coffee ; opens up its door in end of May, but sadly due to MCO (again), I can’t make my way over!
Hearsay this space is quite inviting; painted with raw and minimalist hue but lifted up with potted greens hanging on the ceiling, lively wall plants and potted plants everywhere in the premise. Really can’t wait to visit.
On the menu, expect the Japanese sando-style sandwiches, bento, delicious creamy quiche and also fluffy scones. As for the drinks, of course there will be perfect blends from The Roast Things Coffee Roaster.
Cold Brew White with milk (Rm 15)
