Ikoi Japanese ala carte buffet

My friend recommended this place, the entrance is very traditional and when you go in, you'll see lots of photos of the lady boss with different actors/actresses on the wall.

The staffs there are very nice, they refill our tea and change new plates promptly without us asking.

The list of menu is quite good, there's sashimi, sushi, handroll, tempura, yakitori, tebasaki... we're already very full after we tried 1/4 of the menu as they also give us some complimentary dishes that's not inside the ala carte buffet menu.

We esp love their complimentary chips, tea pot soup and fried cheese stick.

My favourite from the menu is tebasaki and chawamushi and my friend love the yakitori and sashimi.
The sashimi is very nice but the freshness and the thickness of the sashimi is not very constant. The salmon's still the best, love the swordfish and tuna from the 1st order but the 3rd order is not as fresh.

Price per pax is $33++, overall taste for the food is quite good, it's value for money if you are a big eater.

    i think other than sashimi, the rest of the dishes are so-so only.

    I read about this place called Osahime Japanese Restaurant. I think is at Golden Shoe Plaza. The variety supposedly is not as great but read the quality is there.

    Is diagonally opposite Jogoya. Supposedly the quality is better than Jogoya. Price wise, if we convert currency, then Malaysia is cheaper. If we do not convert currency, then Singapore is cheaper. Generally, a japanese buffet in Siingapore is around SGD30+ range.

    I'm not sure exactly where the original Leong Kee moved to, but I believe the one at Sultan Gate is still there. I also saw one at junction of Jln Besar and Hindoo road. Just at the junction before beancurd city

    Leong Kee (Klang) Bak Kut Teh 梁记(巴生) 肉骨茶 @ Geylang
    CyberTron commented..
    hi! The bak kut teh at this place is Klang style. If you refering to the peppery style Bak Kut Teh you typically find in Singapore, then this is not the place for you. For the peppery style one, the famous ones are probably ones are Balestier Road or the one at Tanjong Pagar complex. For me, I usually just go to Song Fa at Rochor which is decent for me, and more convenient as well.

    I don't remember if i'd ever come across cheap and nice seafood in KL...I suggest you to plan a trip to Sabah, that's really what I call heaven for seafood lovers. ;-)
