Shinjuku

Since the opening of TESCO, finally there is a place for Japanese food - Sushi King is here in Kampar! For months, Sushi King is our only choice for Japanese meals. But not anymore, when Shinjuku started their operation in Bandar Baru Kampar.

Their dining area is split into two: western style tables and chairs, and the Japanese style platform.

Shinjuku has quite a wide variety of Japanese food ranging from sushi, ramen, udon, tempura, chawan mushi, and rice sets. Their set lunch promotion ranges from RM9.90 to RM12.90.

Alex ordered salmon teriyaki set - RM19.90. The set comes with rice, grilled salmon with teriyaki sauce, miso soup, vegetable salad with garlic and mayo dressing, two types of appertizer, fruit and green tea . Quite worth it because all taste nice.

Our friend, CS, ordered unagi set - RM27.90. The set comes with a generous portion of grilled unagi, rice, and the rest of the items served in a rice set. If you can't finish the unagi, you can always ordered a second bowl of rice, for RM1.50.

As for me, I usually like their Japanese fried rice set, at RM6.90 only. Apart from the fried rice, the set comes with miso soup, vegetable salad with garlic and mayo dressing, two types of appertizer, fruit and green tea . I personally find that this is the most worth eating set from the menu.

But today I feel like having something soupy, so I ordered kyushu ramen - RM12.90. This is the price for ala-carte, you can pay additional RM2.00 to make it into a set.

Look at the gigantic bowl, the portion is surely big, but too bad it tastes flat. Though kyushu ramen is not recommended, salmon teriyaki set and unagi set are worth trying!

The green tea is bottomless.

Shinjuku not only serves tasty food (for Kampar standard), but the serving size is generous too. It is definitely a fulfilling meal with the price you pay for it.

Compare with other cafés operating in Bandar Baru Kampar, Shinjuku is considered outstanding - their interior is clean and neat, with quite environment, soft lighting and music, good service, and most importantly – they serve good food with reasonable price!

But just one thing : there is no English details in the menu, at all! Everything is in romanized Japanese like saba shioyaki set, oyako don set, unagi patayaki... etc. For those who are not frequent visitors of Japanese food outlet, this is really troubling, because we can only depend on the photos, or have to ask the waiter one by one what exactly they are serving.

The front of Shinjuku Café House is really simple looking. So look out for their simple brown signboard with the red writing of “Shinjuku" Café House. Shinjuku is definitely a place worth checking out!
