*This restaurant is listed in Top Japanese Restaurant in Penang
Rakuzen Japanese Restaurant located next to Sushi Zanmai which both under the same mother company but Rakuzen more expensive compare to Sushi Zanmai.
The restaurant is big and spaces, facing sea view with very comfortable seat.
Summer Roll RM22, crab meat and cucumber roll topped with half-boiled salmon and fried burdock. Sushi rice is perfectly made and the salmon is fresh and delicious as well, wrapping with the crunchy cucumber making it taste good.
Chicken Katsu Curry Rice Zen RM33, fried chicken curry rice set. Big pieces of chicken fillet deep fried to golden color then top with Japanese curry, deep fried chicken is very soft and flavorful while the Japanese curry is not spicy but full of fresh vegetable and curry taste.
Chicken Katsu Rice set served with pickle and steamed egg.
Sukiyaki Small RM30, Beef Hot-pot in Sukiyaki-style, although it look small but it actually big portion. Assorted vegetable, mushroom together with glass noodle in sukiyaki soup serving with thin slice beef. We are surprise by the amount of slice beef provided which is very generous but too bad the sukiyaki soup is too sweet hence we not able to finish it.
Overall we really enjoy dining in Rakuzen, food is high quality just slightly more expensive compare to Sushi Zanmai. If you wish to eat Sushi then head on to Sushi Zanmai, if you want a-la-carte then try Rakuzen.
