lunch with babra

I got the chance to meet up with zhen wei (or fondly known as Babra!) for lunch on Thursday last week.
Zhen wei was one of my first friends i made back in SAM at Taylor's. So i was almost stuck with her the whole year.that includes scribbling on each other's notes and whacking each other for no apparent reason!!
and then we started calling her babra cos she carried this santa babra bag..and i got the name debra..and bee ling ..erm..due to lack of names ending with "-bra" got named...zebra! muahahah
For once, i decided the place and what to eat. since babra enjoyed Japanese food so much and my sis recommended this Japanese restaurant in pyramid, i decided to give it a try...

We had lunch at Zanmai Sushi, Sunway pyramid (old wing) above Kim Gary.

The place has traditional deco with a modern twist and an open kitchen in the centre where you can actually see the chefs cooking! the menu is quite extensive..with hand rolled sushi, soba noodles, rice dishes, and desserts that looked so tempting but we didn't get to try any due to limited stomach capacity. LOL


I ordered this tempura with rice. Its rm8.80. not bad. the rice is really nice..typical Japanese rice..but oh-so-filling. and the tempura prawn, long beans, lady fingers were crispy n yummy =)

sushi on the conveyor belt. i wonder how that mass of green stuff taste like. not willing to find out =p
zhen wei's sushi. filled with avocado, cucumber and crab stick..i think. n a generous topping of mayonaise.(RM3.80)
soft shell crab maki(RM6.00)
soft shell crab temaki.(RM4.80) the crab was goood =) even if it is so itsy-bitsy
we ordered free flow of green tea (RM1)

After lunch we walked around pyramid..and since the cny deco was still up in the old wing...
