Restoran Yaki Teppan, Sg. Nibong, Penang

There’s this Japanese teppanyaki kinda place in Sg Nibong where we can catch lunch on working days except for Mondays.  Well, it does not really look like authentic Japanese though, no typical jap style theme restaurant. They offer variety of teppanyaki set meals, tempura set meals, course meals and limited selection of sushi. And you can place order online too!! haha… pretty tech savvy this place :D

yt2 The interior is just very simple and often full during lunch time. The con is, it’s an air conditioned closed doors restaurant and with lotsa teppanyaki going on, you’ll go back smelling like the kitchen too :D

yt3 The water features and they have magazines that you can read while waiting for your food…

We all ordered the teppanyaki set that was consist of the teppanyaki dish and rice, drink (green tea), soup (supposedly miso soup but we got normal cabbage+carrot soup that day), salad, and wantons (usually is tofu but they ran out of it that day.. business seems good..)

yt4 The Chicken Teriyaki Set with stir fry vegetables (cabbage and bean sprouts) MYR10.50.. which is well, quite cheap and affordable. The sauce portion was generous, but kinda oily. It does not taste like the authentic one with thick teriyaki sauce, the sauce is thinner but overall, I say it’s not bad.

yt5 The Fish Teriyaki Set, MYR10.90, consist the same just deep fried fish meat pieces cooked with teriyaki sauce.

yt6 The salmon set MYR13.90, with rather small slices of salmon and it actually looked kinda.. urm.. dull.. well, guess you get what you paid for.. haha… but my colleague personally did really enjoy it… she commented that it was not as fresh and a little bit oily too… perhaps grilled salmon is be better…

yt8 They have their website with all the information, from menu listing to price listing, order form list and very detailed directions to the shop… it’s actually just next to Kopitiam heng Huat where I usually get my economy fried bee hoon. Food overall wasn’t superbly great, just so so, but the wide selections and the affordability is two keys to consider. Service was not bad too despite peak hours… I believe there is still room for improvement.. :D
