Awadori @ Mount Austin, Johor Bahru
Non Halal
New Open!
If I had to give it a score, I would give it 10 out of 10!
Johor Bahru's only restaurant specializing in yakitori by a Japanese owner-chef has opened in Mount Austin!
The interior is upscale and relaxing, and the Japanese yakitori is savory and delicately prepared, with an artisanal soul. I thought it must be expensive, but Looking at the menu, I was surprised to see how affordable it is. A stick of this yakitori starts at RM4 !
The owner-chef Mr. Motoshima, who also runs a restaurants in Japan, goes to the market every morning and purchases the nicest parts and rare parts of the chicken (chochin and white liver etc.), which are hard to find in Malaysia, because he is a connoisseur. Kampon chicken is used for the Yakitori. He told me that he is in the process of selecting even better charcoal for grilling, and when I asked him to show it, it was Japanese binchotan (top brand). Amazing!
The side menu is also extensive. The Karaage fried chicken, 100% homemade chicken Paitan soup ramen, and dashimaki tamago are so good that they could be the main course.
I am afraid that if everyone knew about this restaurant, it would be too crowded. A restaurant I really don't want to tell you about.
Open for lunch on weekends. It is a yakitori restaurant of the Awagyu Group.
