Golden Girls' Lunch At Sakae Sushi, Aeon Big, Ipoh.

It was time for the Golden Girls to meet up again! We agreed to meet up at our usual meeting place and from there we proceed to Aeon Big. Our lunch venue for that day was Sakae Sushi. Why Sakae Sushi? Its because I had a Sakae Sushi's cash voucher worth MYR 15 given to me when I signed up as a new Aeon member on its opening day. Not wanting to waste the voucher, I suggested to the Golden Girls to have lunch at Sakae Sushi.

The four of us agreed to order 2 main sets and a few add-ons for us to share. None of us were interested in anything raw. We were interested only in the cooked items. First, we ordered a specially designed set for us to savour a variety of tastes. The first set were made up of the following:-
1.1. Breaded chicken cutlet.
1.2. Japanese curry gravy.
1.3. Grilled scallop with mentaiko mayo.
1.4. Some kind of curd or pudding which I can't remember...??
1.5. A bowl of miso soup (left).
1.6. A bowl of rice with some kind of topping.
This was taken from the menu to give a better picture of set #1.
3 Golden Girls chose hot green tea and 1 chose iced green tea.

Set #2 - I couldn't find the noodle photo.
Might have missed it but I have the photo of the assorted tempura.
We enjoyed this, so we ordered an extra plate of assorted tempura.
A photo taken from the menu to show set #2.

Besides the 2 main sets, we ordered the following add-ons.
We ordered 2 sets (12 pieces) of Kappa Maki-Japanese cucumber.
These went well with the pickled ginger shown below.
My plate of pickled ginger. So appetizing!
2 sets (4 pieces) Chuka Mekabu Gunkan - seasoned seaweed.
Squid or cuttlefish in some kind of sauce - very tasty!
Sorry, I only have what's remaining to show - too slow! Lol!
Again no photo to show this item.
Kimchi Horenso Maki - kimchi, Japanese spinach, cherry tomato.
We would not have taken these had we known kimchi was included because we do not know how to enjoy kimchi. To complete our lunch, we ordered ice-cream!
1 vanilla gelato & 1 coffee gelato for us to taste.
I was seated facing this wall.

Next, we did some shopping at the supermarket.

#3 - Chain link fencing and a withered tree.

Linking to Good Fences.

Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said to the tree
on the previous day and exclaimed,
"Look, Teacher! The fig tree you cursed has withered!"
(Mark 11:21, The Living Bible-TLB)

  26. I go to Sakae all the time as my girl likes the place. They seem to have vouchers and promos going on ALL the time. Guess that's how they lure repeat customers.

    1. Heard from friends that there are other better places. I quite like some of the food here. Lots of young children loves Japanese food.

  27. Nice fences, the hedge makes for a pretty natural fence. Very interesting variety of food. Some looked tasty, others (like seaweed) wouldn't be something I'd eat.
