Of course, they have the standard kaiten belt filled with sushi-laddened plates. And I have to give them marks for creating quite a variety of not-so-common sushi dishes. But other than sushi, I do like some of their dishes very much.
Pumpkin Chawanmushi
Not really a fan of chawanmushi but I absolutely love all-things pumpkin! And this is a good one. Perfectly smooth and silky steamed egg custard, to the point of being slightly gelatinous and topped with the cutest mini mushrooms. The best part is of course the gem hidden within - tons of mashed sweet pumpkin which is simply divine! Good value too for RM3.90.
Another favourite of mine at Sakae Sushi is their Sakae Salad.
Salad topped with tamago sticks, jelly fish, seasoned seaweed, crispy salmon skins, beancurd skins, fried egg flakes, slices of fesh raw salmon and tossed together with the accompanying sweet plum sauce as dressing, it reminds me of my beloved Chinese New Year Yu Sang and certainly deserves another round of thumbs-up from me. And all this for about RM8.90 only (mind you, serving is far from meagre too).
On this particular day, I also ordered a portion of Spicy Tuna Handroll (RM1.90).
This is much less impressive and less than satisfactory. A handroll stuffed with a wee bit of spicy tuna and shredded cucumber. But for the price, I reckon it's pretty alright too as a light bite.
As far as I know, aside from Subang Parade, Sakae Sushi has outlets in The Curve and Bangsar Village II. So try it if you haven't already.

Such mouthwatering pictures!! I haven't tried a pumpkin chawanmushi before. Looks really yummy!
hmmm yeah i must agree that its the better out of the latter u were talking about..but i still rather pay abit more premium for the proper stuff..haha..
Hi Lyrical,
It is indeed yummy. Must-try if you love pumpkin and wanna taste a interesting twist to the classic chawanmushi.
Hi Joe,
True-true but no many places can boast to have pumpkin chawanmushi... hehe.
love their baby octopus and soft shell crab maki..hehehe
I tried once at The Curve outlet and was rather disappointed cos they put too much vinegar into the rice and so it tasted funny. But i do agree with you that their menu is quite extensive and impressive. Maybe I should give it another try.
Hi kbcg,
Hmmm..., shall try your recommendation next.
Hi precious pea,
I think there are hits-and-misses in their menu. But i think they are worth another try.
Yeah! I love their pumpkin chawanmushi too.. it's so smooth and delicious. I always order 1 whenever i visit Sakae Sushi. :)
Interesting chawan mushi.
I'm always unsure of whether to take this as appetiser, main or dessert.
mmm.. sakae sushi is very popular in SG. I dont know why but I feel that their standard is not consistent between outlets.
Having said that, I frequently visit Subang Parade and One Utama when I head to Malaysia so I might give that branch in Subang Parade a try!
Hi ellena,
Totally agree.
Hi Tummythoz,
I would suggest as an appetizer or side dish.
Hi Jackson & Daphne,
I guess they face the same problem that many chain food outelets face, inconsistency in maintaining food quality.
