So glad with her choice of place because it's also my favorite place for having sushi.
This Sushi Tei restaurant that we went is located in Plaza Indonesia. It's very crowded as usual although this month is a fasting month for the Muslim.
We chose to sit beside the Kaiten Sushi (sushi train where a stream of plates winding through in the middle of the restaurant). We had total of 8 plates and pleased with the taste.
Shoyu (Japanese soy sauce), wasabi (green paste), gari (sweet pickled ginger) and ocha (green tea) as condiments.
A bowl of Tempura Soba for me.... so comforting with the crispy tempura.
My other friend ordered Tsukimi Udon with raw egg on the top.
No one ordered for dessert because.... there's no more space in everyone's stomach :)

wah so nice template and gorgeous Selby's Food Jourmal! :)
ReplyDeleteBBO: Thanks :) But it's still the same template, hehehe...
ReplyDeleteMmm, the soba looks awesome. I love a big bowl of noodles!
ReplyDeletemica: Never can't get enough with a small or medium bowl of noodles, right? Same with me! hehehe...
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so yummy, hope you all had fun. Fasting for a whole month, gosh!
ReplyDeletexoxo
DA: Yes, they are fasting the whole month, here in Indonesia is from 4 AM until 6 PM - no food or drink at all.
ReplyDeletelooks very good! similar to what is available here too ya :)
ReplyDeleteI have always preferred soba to udon, so GOOD CHOICE! ;)
ReplyDeletebuzzingbee: I guess the menu is the same everywhere :)
ReplyDeleteLfB: Yay! *hi5* :D
ReplyDeleteJapanese food is one my favourite. I will go to Sushi Tei tomorrow..haha....
ReplyDeleteI would love to have some Udon noodle soup...

I luv Sushi Tei as compared to Sakae Sushi. We can never get bored eating Japanese food. They are so delicious yet healthy (minus the tempura). ;)
ReplyDeleteSushi Tei is also my favourite Sushi restaurant in Jakarta, I always go there everytime I visit Indo. Sushi Sei is also good, but I think Sushi Tei is better and cheaper...
ReplyDeleteEverything looks really amazing...especially those bowls of noodles...yum!
ReplyDeleteanncoo: That sounds great! :)
ReplyDeleteangie's recipes: Udon noodle soup sounds wonderful :)
FFT: My humble opinion, the shoyu (Japanese soy sauce) in Sakae Sushi is very salty compared to Sushi Tei. Oh... tempura... hahaha... yeah, fried stuff... not really healthy :)
C-G: *hi5* I guess Sushi Tei is much better than other Sushi places :)
faith: *nods* And... everything is yummy :)
Ohhhh, I looooooove sushi so much! You only had 8 plates? I could eat double that amount myself. ;-)
ReplyDeletewhat a feast!
ReplyDeletei am also a sushi lover, always cannot resists!!! the sushi u ordered look very good!!

ReplyDeletelove sushi with lots of pickled ginger.
ReplyDeleteThat's a ton of food, and it all looks so good!
ReplyDeletelooks decent..haha although i can prob wallop 8 sushi plates on my own..
ReplyDeleteLike the new header and the new link/search bar, as well as the larger photos! So much food here:). The salmon looks so interesting as it almost seems like every layer between the fat and meat is separate from each other.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy a good Japanese meal once a while though not a big fan. The baby octopuses will be my favourite.
ReplyDeletepalidor: The stomach got full coz' of the soba soup! hehehe...
ReplyDeletedoggybloggy: It is indeed :)
simplegirl: Me too...Never can resist sushi! :D
chow and charter: thank you for you compliments on my blog, Rebecca :)
helene: thank you for you kind words, Helene :)
foodbin: Love all the condiments in a sushi restaurant :)
ReplyDeletemonica: yes.. yes... it's really good! :D
joe: woohoo...I probably shouldn't ordered the tempura soba, if there'd be more space in my stomach for sushi, hehehe...
ETE: thank you.. thank you... :) I wasn't really paying attention how interesting the salmon looks until you mentioned it, hehehe..
worldwindows: Baby octopuses is also one of my favorite sushi dish :)
Wow, I can see why it is your favorite place to eat. The photos are so vibrant, they make the food look like it can be eaten right off the screen! Sounds like a wonderful meal and a good time. Happy Birthday to your friend!
ReplyDeletenice header! and Sushi Tei! they have an outlet in Tropiana City Mall, PJ if I'm not mistaken. Would want to drop by! have you tried? :) food looks yummy.Craving for Jap now!
ReplyDeleteglo: Thank you for your compliments on my photos :) I will pass your wishes to my friend :)
ReplyDeleteCL: Thank you! :) I've never been to Tropiana City Mall, hehehe...
The sushi looks so great. I'm especially intrigued by the Udon. I've seen noodle dishes with an egg on them before, but haven't had the opportunity to try them. It sounds good to me! A lovely place and looks to be a great celebration!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your friend. The sushi looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteSam
lori: You know, Lori? I always add an egg when I make instant noodle and seriously, it tasted much better with egg :) Give it a try!
ReplyDeleteMCK: Thanks, Sam. I will pass your wishes to my friend :)
thanks Selba, for updating my link.
ReplyDeletenice layout you have as well.
j2kfm: Your new blog is also very nice :)
ReplyDeleteA delicious outing! The sushi and the soba noodles look terrific! I'm now in a mood for sushi!
ReplyDeleteVery neat and nice layout...very pleasant for the eyes :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful meal to have in the company of friends. I hope she had a great birthday.
ReplyDeleteI love unagi so much! I was surprised by how absent it was from most restaurants in Japan. When I asked a chef, he said its a delicacy. It's much more common in Canada!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a brilliant Japanese place, no wonder it's your favourite :)
Sushi is my favorite. Just about any kind is fine with me! I would like to try the egg over my noodles sometime. ;0)
ReplyDeletesushi tei is definitely my favourite sushi chain. the ingredients are fresh and the dishes are very delicious. the cha soba and hokkaido specials are my fave!
ReplyDeletehey, very nice layout, Selba! :)
In KL Sushi King is king with families packing them in at the Malls. Seems very popular with youngsters too.
ReplyDeleteFor many this the first exposure to delicate pretty raw Jap cuisine , a stunning experience for the Big Bowl Chinamen
Wow! Jakarta also got Sushi Tei!
ReplyDeleteNice one Selba!
Oh wow, it all looks so delicious! I can see why no one had room for dessert!
ReplyDeleteAnother delightful review Selba. I'm almost afraid to say, I've never tried sushi. As for those noodles, I could dive in right now!!!
ReplyDelete5 star foodie: I'm always have mood for sushi :)
ReplyDeleteck lam: Glad that you like my new layout :)
mary: I believe my friend had a wonderful birthday :)
marta: Unagi is one of the best dishes in Japanese restaurant :) It's easier to find in Canada? Wow! I didn't know that...
the ungourmet: I recommend the egg over your noodle, just mix it together with the hot noodle :)
ReplyDeletenic: I will try the hokkaido specials next time, thanks for the recommendation and also compliments :)
BSG: I don't think there's King Sushi here in Jakarta :)
wilson & rachel: Yes, there are several places of Sushi Tei in Jakarta :)
debbie: Hehehe.. yeah, very fulfill :)
ReplyDeletelouise: Whoaaa... never tried sushi before? Give it a try someday, Louise! It might be an adventure experience for you since mostly sushi are raw fish and the wasabi (green paste) can give an interesting sensation to your nose ;)
It all looks so delicious. Looks like you had a blast.
ReplyDeleteWhy no one invited me there? I have never step in any of that restaurant outlet yet. Sweat.. Nice layout NN. :)
ReplyDeletehttp://crizfood.com/
donna: Yes, I did indeed :)
ReplyDeletecriz: No need to be invited lah... go by your own, hehehe ;) Thanks, Criz!
wahh..i just miss this shop.
ReplyDeleteall my friends keep promoting this restaurant when iwas in medan or in jakarta
taufulou: I thought there's Sushi Tei restaurant in Malaysia, no?
ReplyDeleteYes, its yummy! :p
ReplyDeletebest of all, the price is even yummier (in a good direction).
Rp. 250.000 for 5 person is a good price in a sense of the classy restaurant.
I really miss the fresh salmon and wasabi.
yummy *piggy mode on*
