Just Seafood, Sunway Giza Mall

Time flies when happy moments come along. The last month was kind-a-like a holiday month for me with numerous trips filled into the slots. And I’m back to introduce more delicious food to satisfy your craving – and yes, do stay tune for my trips post too.

Anyone love seafood here? #IshallraisedmyhandastallasIcould! #onlyforseafood #onlyseafood #yes,JustSeafood #JustSeafood Just Seafood, the seafood lovers must-try place. 


Happy customers with their seafood!


Situated inside on the Ground Floor (not sure if it’s called Ground Floor – but it’s right at the makan place where all the restaurants are) of Sunway Giza Mall, Just Seafood brings you the new-way-of-eating-seafood which is the ‘in-thing’ nowadays. 



Instead of the traditional way of enjoying seafood (the gigantic bowl or elegant way of platting the seafood) with those fancy platting and props, there’s no ‘serveware’ or serving bowls/plates needed here. These delicious, finger licking good seafood are served on the table directly – with only one layer of white baking paper that divides the food with the table. 

Check out the stylish way of serving your seafood below. 




And did I mention that there’s no cutlery too? (Well, you could asked for one if you need to) Throw that spoon or fork or knife of yours away and voila, the yummylicious seafood fits into your delicate fingers better.  You are encouraged to eat with your hands to feel the texture and freshness of the seafood which you’re about to pop into your mouth. Well, of course; the restaurant provides disposable hand gloves so that your pretty manicure can stay safe and prevent you from having the fresh seaside smell on your fingers at the end of the meal. 

The menu is quite simple. They offer set meals that fits 1-2 pax, 3-4 pax as well as for 5-7 pax. Each of these sets comes with meaty crabs, giant prawns, XXL prawns, clams, Chilean mussels, squids, potatoes, carrots, corn with rice or toasted bread – the only different between one set from another is the different grams of each type of seafood. If you’re ordering the 5-7pax, the weight of each type of seafood in the set will be more than the one in a set fits for 1-2 pax.



Overall, the seafood in Just Seafood is served in 3 different types of sauces namely Louisiana Cajun, Butter Milk and Creamy Peanut. According to the founder of Just Seafood; Terence Ham, ‘Just Seafood’s signature sauces are inspired by flavours from the USA, Vietnam and Malaysia’. That leads to its Best-Selling Sauce in Just Seafood – the Louisiana Cajun style which is actually made popular by the Vietnamese in Louisiana. And guess that, Terence and his chef are also Vietnamese – together they perfected Just Seafood’s version of Louisiana Sauce – with the right amount of thickness to goes with the fresh seafood. Thus, you know which one you gotta order when you’re here huh?



I love their Louisiana Cajun sauce – it’s an appetizing sauce I would say – with lots of flavours from the spices used – and the spicy + a hint of sourish taste. Yummy! And don’t left those potatoes and carrots behind because they are a hidden gem in this dish. The natural sweetness of your carrots and starchy potatoes are being enhanced by the special Cajun sauce. 


Louisiana Cajun Sauce:
1-2pax: RM109+
3-4pax: RM199+
5-7pax: RM399+


Up next on the table is the Signature Buttermilk sauce, a sauce that goes well with almost everything whether it’s seafood, poultry, vegetables or even bread sticks. You will see this Buttermilk xx or other Buttermilk xx in stir-fry restaurants which makes it a local favorites sauce. Just Seafood does not skimp on their ingredients where a whole bottle of buttermilk is used in preparing a certain amount of sauces. Thus, can you image the creaminess of the sauce that I would like to mix it with my pasta to turn it into an ala-minute Carbonara? And your toasted bread is a very useful dish on our table now – dipped that bread in to the creamy buttermilk sauce and I’ll bet that you’ll order more toasted bread after that! Another thing I love about this sauce is the presence of curry leaves- the utmost important thing in a buttermilk sauce (it’s not called a good buttermilk sauce without curry leaves). It gives that kick to your tongue.

Last but not least is the Creamy Peanut Sauce, which is inspired from the local favourites dish – Satay. Yup! It’s #thepeanutsauce but unlike the satay’s peanut sauce, the Creamy Peanut sauce at Just Seafood is being crafted to go well with the seafood. It has a creamy and savoury base with just the right amount of spiciness level – and of course the nuts in the sauce. It’s a sauce that made specially for us! Do try them out if you’re here!

Well, besides all these creamy and yummylicious seafood sets in different types of sauces; you must not missed their Giant Fresh Oyster which is the size of your palm. The dedicated chefs opened the giant oysters right before you eat it to maintain its freshness. Just squeeze some lemon and off it goes into your mouth. I’m reminiscing the moment I take a bite of this amazing dish. Loving it! This USA Fresh Giant Oyster is priced at only RM18/pc. And if you buy 4pcs (at RM72), you get another piece of Giant Oyster for FREE! Where else can you find a giant fresh oyster at this price in Klang Valley?




If you’re looking for some fried fritters, you can try the Deep Fried Seafood Basket (RM47) which comes with Oysters, Prawns and Calamari Fritters. Pop one in your mouth and you’ll automatically go for the second piece. A crunchy coating on the outside preserves the freshness of the seafood in it. Voila.



If you’re a carbs person that rice or noodles is a must have; Just Seafood do serve Crab Meat Fried Rice (RM39) as well as Meat Crab Glass Noodle (RM49)

I’m sure you’re looking for a drink or two by now. Think no further and order the house signature Lemongrass Pandan (RM9). Freshly made daily and it’s good to have after a heavy seafood meal. The Lime Ice Tea (RM9) is great too. The sourish taste from the lime kinda flush the thirsty feeling away at the end of the meal. If you’re looking for some booze, Just Seafood also serves beers and selected imported wines to go with your seafood.

Fukusu Sushi, Dataran Sunway Kota Damansara

Fukusu Sushi is a humble sushi restaurant serving affordable and delicious Japanese delicacy located at Dataran Sunway, Kota Damansara. Instead of dining at those popular sushi joint in the malls where you might need to queue for some time to get a seat, do drop by Fukusu Sushi for a change. 

You might be wondering where is this shop located - the same goes for me where I almost got lost locating the shop for the first time.  It is quite easy to navigate to Fukusu Sushi, it's at the 2nd row of shop lot right next to the Neighbourhood Food Court shop lots area or if you know where is the Batu Road Chilli Pan Mee at Dataran Sunway; Fukusu Sushi is located a few shops away from this infamous Pan Mee shop. 


The interior of Fukusu Sushi provides you with a homey yet relaxing atmosphere for a casual Japanese dining experience. Leave your uptight feeling behind - in which you might experience when walking into a renowned or semi-fine dining  Japanese restaurant. The white table and chairs set up in Fukusu Sushi gives a clean and neat impression at your first step. 




The menu at Fukusu Sushi is quite extensive which includes the individual sushi pieces, handrolls, maki rolls, sashimi to hot food such as noodles, rice, teppanyaki, hot pot and so on. And the best part? These delicious food goes light on your pocket that you can come back for more! 



Thanks to Jolie and the team at Fukusu Sushi, I was invited to sample the delicious Japanese food at Fukusu Sushi! Adding one more sushi joint in my list :)

Sushi or sashimi is a must-have when you're dining in a restaurant serving Japanese cuisine. As for me, I love Salmon a lot compared to other raw-protein on the usual sashimi list (raw tuna is a big no for me due to its smell and taste). This Salmon Zukushi Set (RM21.90) is the perfect platter for me because it's all about SALMON. The entire platter itself is very Instagram-worthy; thus do play a bit with your camera before feeding it into your stomach. It consist of Salmon Maki, Salmon Sashimi, Smoked Salmon Sushi and Salmon Mentai Sushi. The Salmon used is very fresh and comes in a generous cut portion. There's a 15pcs of delicate salmon themed sushi on a plate for your to enjoy - and I would recommended to order this platter on a sharing basis to keep some stomach space for other dishes to come. Or just hop to Fukusu Sushi and order this Salmon Set to yourself :)



Next, it's about time for the sushi rolls to take its place on the table. We picked the top two most popular sushi rolls here at Fukusu Sushi. The first one is the Golden SSC Maki (RM15.90) which is actually a Mango Roll Sushi (in our common language when ordering sushi). This is a perfect sushi for mango lovers where the team at Fukusu Sushi hand-picked the best mango available to pair it on the little morsels. The sweet with a hint of sourish taste gives a refreshing feeling with it is eaten together with the sushi rice and the best of the sea as its filling.




I love this Dragon Roll Maki (RM11.90) even more because it's sushi with my favourite - avocado! Everything goes well with avocado especially the Japanese sushi rice. The perfectly ripe avocado is gently placed on top of a maki sushi filled with fried prawns and its condiments. Remember not to remove the little dot of mayonnaise placed on top of the avocado - it taste better with the mayonnaise. It kinda serves as a palate blending agent between the avocado and the sushi rice. Yum!



Besides the selection of sushi, you can also order some fried fritters as your sides. We had this Soft Shell Crab (RM13.90). You will be served with two generous pieces of fried soft shell crabs along with its savoury dipping sauce. It serves as a great snacking dish where the soft shell crab is dipped fried to a semi crunchy state where you can still taste its natural salty  taste in your mouth.



If you're not into soft shell crab, you can order the Ebi Tempura (RM15.90) which is a deep fried prawns coated with the tempura styled batter. Nothing can go wrong with an Ebi Tempura, thus it's a must have on your table.



We also picked this Salmon Kabuto Teriyaki (RM15.90) which is a grilled salmon fish head with teriyaki sauce. Do not judge the salmon fish head from its look - it actually comes with quite a lot of salmon flesh behind the head. Grilled perfectly and goes great with the in-house teriyaki sauce.



Another highlight of our meal is this Chicken Sukiyaki (RM19.90) which is a mini chicken hotpot or steamboat where it comes with a bowl of chicken soup alongside its pairing vegetables, mushrooms, beancurd, an egg and of course the chicken meat.



All you need to do is pour the raw egg into the hot pot and turn on the fire.



When all the ingredients are cooked, it's ready to be consumed! The soup taste great with a hint of sweet taste and the vegetables taste even better too. You may order an extra a bowl of rice to pair it with.



If rice is a must-have dish on your table, do try its Garlic Fried Rice (RM16.90). As the sayings goes, nothing can go wrong with a plate of fried rice and its Garlic Fried Rice comes with its main ingredients - fried garlic, eggs and green onions. It's a perfect pairing with the Chicken Sukiyaki!



And don't forget to have a try on their selection of Ramen too. The KaisenKimichi Ramen (RM22.90) is one of the ramen selection available. What's in the bowl? It's delicious Ramen served with prawns, Japanese fish cakes, little squids, a clam and half Japanese styled egg called nitamago (where the egg yolk is half cooked). And the soup is a kimchi based one but not a strong kimchi based which over-powering the entire dish. Do give it a try.





There's still many other choices of food available on its menu. The dishes at Fukusu Sushi are sold at an affordable price given the generous portion of its food. Do drop by its shop to try it on your own.
