Hey people, it’s been a while waiting and here comes me and Karen’s third posting for our Penang food hunt.

This time we go for something Asian and here it is our third destination…Kirishima Japanese Restaurant. (I’m not sure what Kirishima means but it do sound like some kick –ass Japanese samurai sword :P)

This restaurant is located inside Cititel Hotel in Jalan Penang. Its pretty near to the famous Sup Hameed mamak stall and Salsas restaurant. In fact, it’s just a couple of blocks away from Upper Penang Road where you can reach by foot. (Good news for you party animals!!)

This is how the restaurant looks with good ambient and lighting:

There are unique looking plates and chopsticks. (with a huge menu as well)

As for the food...This is the only bento set we ordered. It might be the only one but its seriously enough to make both of us full ! It costs around 30 bucks and we ordered an extra rice to share.


This picture shows it all as we have in the set:

The seaweed fried rice

Japanese steam tofu

Soba noodles

Prawn tempura

Miso Soup ( as usual) , fruits, japanese salad

and not to forget..the most important of all

THE UNAGI !!!!!

We have different kinds of Jap restaurant serving Unagi and I have to say..this is probably the best me and Karen have tried in Penang ! Luves it !!
