Second attack: Shogun
On 25th
February 2013, while waiting for the public speaking seminar later that
evening, our group consisting of Wei Teng, Joshua and Jason along with Ben and
Cavin as guests decided to have a japanese buffet at Shogun Sunway Pyramid
expecting a great lunch.
The staffs and
waiters were quite welcoming as they restricted us from entering the compound
till the exact time the restaurant open eventhough we just wanted to sit down
and relax before we ‘dig in’. The head chef was scary and with a deep voice,
‘pleasantly’ informed that there was no fresh oysters for today. Despite that,
the sashimi and sushi especially the salmon sashimi didn’t disappoint us.
Joshua was moody
at first due the fact that his favourite fresh oysters aren’t available but the
rest of us we too hungry to dash in to our meals.

( a variety of raw salmon )
( the tempura is a bit cold but its tasty )
( the vegetables were fresh and muscles was great cooked with sweet and sour
sauce)
The sashimi
serving deck mainly consists of Japanese sashimi that includes salmon, Hokkigai,
Hokkaido Hotate, Hamachi, Akami Maguro, Tako and Kajaiki. Furthermore, the sushi
serving deck consists of Nigiri, Gunkan, Inari, Maki, Temaki and Makimono. Unfortunately,
there was no Unagi served in this branch. (Unagi is a normally a signature dish
found in Japanese restaurants.) There was also a variety of Chinese and western
cuisines served in Shogun. However, the quality of food didn’t meet our
expectations and the taste was bland.
After
all the appetizers and main course dishes, we ‘attacked’ the desserts!!!
Shogun has a wide
variety of desserts including the chocolate fountain, cakes, fruits and
ice-cream. They even had a variety of local “kuih-muih” and a limited but sufficient
amount of ice cream flavours. The chocolate fountain was fun to play with as we
were scooping the chocolate into our ice creams bowls.

All in all, the
food was decent compared to the price but the service was terrible. However, we
only managed to stay for the buffet for less than 2 hours because we had to go
back to college for our public speaking seminar. Moreover, we wouldn’t recommend
this restaurant due to its prices and quality of service obtained.
Other than that,
we also took many self shots photos of ourselves. Enjoy!

Digging in on our food. Yum yum yum!
