Kin No Mizu @The Intermark

Did you realized that whenever we talk about a Japanese restaurant in The Intermark, we only know Hanare Japanese Restaurant because they are popular in serving buffet during the weekends. However, I have to introduce a Japanese restaurant that is way better than Harare Japanese Restaurant which is Kin No Mizu Japanese Dining. 
This exquisite restaurant is rarely visible to us because it is located at the second floor inside The Intermark. You will notice this restaurant if you are staying in Double Tree by Hilton. 
They do not serve buffet but deliver the best ala-carte fine dining experience. We were place on a table where we are sitting on top of a pond. Only the tempered glass that is holding us from getting ourselves soak into pond. There is only one seating with such a design and we are lucky that we are sitting on it. Sorry, no photo available but you can see the first picture of this post. The table is just behind the signboard.
Sashimi Moriawase @RM220.00++
Outlook: 3/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 3/5 - Only 6 types of sashimi with 3 pieces each which may sound a little overpriced but I can assure you that every single piece of them is fresh and good quality. The meat is cut at a reasonable thickness which you will get to enjoy the maximum sweetness of it. I like all of them and hardly for me to point out which meat is particularly standing out among the others. One thing worth to be noted for is their wasabi which is genuinely good and fresh.

Dobin Mushi @RM28.00++
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 3/5 - Smooth, fresh and full of seafood sweetness in every small cup of the seafood clear soup. 

They are not stingy at all with the ingredients in such a tiny teapot. They just stuffed in prawns, fish meat, mushrooms and scallop in it. That's why you will get to taste the seafood richness in every tiny cup of the soup.
Chawan Mushi @RM12.00++
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 3/5 - A Japanese meal is never going to complete without ordering their delicious Chawanmushi. So smooth, sweet and delightful taste of the egg will definitely will not want to share this with anyone else.

Foie Gras Chawan Mushi @RM32.00++
Outlook: 3/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 3/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 3/5 - Since their chawanmushi is so nice, so we decided to order another chawanmushi but this one is a little bit different than the common one. 1/3 of it is the layer of foie gras which you can see from the photo above and the other 2/3 portion of it is the layer of normal chawan mushi which is sitting at the bottom of the foie gras. You need to dig it in so that you can taste both common chawanmushi and the layer of foie gras at the same time. A little too oily but it is still acceptable. However, I would prefer the common chawan mushi.

Salmon Butter Shoyuyaki @RM38.00++
Outlook: 3/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 3/5 - I admire their grilling skill for able to make a fine thin grill crust on the meat and still able to leave the juicy and soft meat in it. I wish they can be more generous with the size.

Oyako Don @RM28.00++
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 3/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 4/5
Overall: 3/5 - The portion is so huge which you would prefer to share it instead of having it all on your own. Mixing the whole cheese, egg and the soft chicken meat together with the fragrance Japanese rice before you it. The taste is absolutely divine and delicious which amazingly I finished up the whole bowl by myself in the end.

Cold Somen @RM25.00++
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 3/5 - The fine thin somen absorb a good amount of the sweet soba sauce to bring an absolutely scrumptious taste into your mouth. I have to acknowledge that the soba sauce is one of the best I have tasted so far. It blends in so well with the somen. 

Hot Somen @RM25.00++
Outlook: 3/5
Creativity: 3/5
Taste: 2/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 2/5 - We were not getting enough of somen so we order it again but this time we wanted to try a hot one. The somen soak into the soup and becomes soggy. Not good at all. We were pretty disappointed for this choice. I have always knew that somen, soba and inaniwa udon must be served cold. The only noodles that is good while it is hot is udon and ramen. 

Their Kurogoma ice cream and Matcha ice cream are not so impressive compare with their main course. RM9.00++ per scoop is not worth it at all.
Overall I find that this is one of the best Japanese Restaurant that is in Klang Valley which is worth to dine in. I will probably come back again because there are so many other choices that I have yet to try.
