Enjoy dining without burning a hole in your pocket, no membership required
Set in lush greenery and decked out in floor-to-ceiling glass panels, this Zen fine-dining restaurant serves set lunches that are incredibly affordable for its standards. For a quiet getaway in the middle of the city with your favourite colleague, look to Fukuya on Jalan Delima. The Fuku-Fuku set is what most come for. The RM43 meal presents value in that you get to choose two main dishes from a list of mouthwatering options, running from butter sauteed scallops to cube cut beef steak. The salmon sashimi is consistently thick and fresh so get that and a warm dish for balance — the butterfish teriyaki and soft shell crab tempura are both formidable choices. The set also comes with rice, pickled appetisers, steamed egg custard, soup, and finally, fresh fruit to refresh your palate after the heavy meal. Pro tip: There is free valet service on the premise so skip the roadside parking areas and head straight here.
Avg price per person: RM60

Dropped in on this super zen resto hidden amongst industrial buildings and offices for lunch. The RM43 set lunch is quite a deal considering the area we're in, and that we get to choose two mains. Variety is king! The salmon sashimi and the butter scallops were good but the efficient service, quiet ambience and ample parking were even better. Escape here when KL city gets a little too busy for your liking.
Located right next to the famous Levain Boulangerie Patisserie, Fukuya has often been overlooked, possibly due to its petite one-storey height amidst towering buildings. Just one step into the door, and you'll immediately feel the zen-ness from this Japanese-themed, well-lit space. The Sashimi Set (RM110) features an assortment of selected sashimi (air-flown from Japan twice a week), chawanmushi, miso soup, and freshly grated wasabi, and is well worth it. If do you do plan to head there for lunch, most of their lunch sets (RM43-80) already come with salmon, tuna and amberjack sashimi!
No words to describe but just too good to be true. Very fresh sushi & Sashimi..
