Tomoe, Japanese Restaurant

Located opposite of the Sime Darby Medical Centre, next to Rakuzen. Tomoe located at the corner shop. Since looking for a parking is a real headache there, this restaurant offer Jockey park (FOC) which attract lots of patrons.

I like their variety of sets that they offer, they have sashimi with ... sushi with .... and some without sushi or sashimi, just the main course.



This is the Sashimi set.




Sashimi and chicken teriyaki set.




all the sets come with Chawan mushi,


Green salad


Radish and pickles


Last but not least the ebiten maki.


Price are quite resonable. For all the above, cost me about RM 70
