The dark and cosy Ninja Jones at dinnertime
Avocado and Soft Shell Crab Namaharumaki (RM22/USD6.70) with light sourish sauce.
Next, the grill was set for our next dish...
Kobe Beef (RM130 per 100 gram/USD40 per 100 gram). We ordered 150 grams and the five of us had three slices each. It was a chance for me to try this acclaimed meat; it was lovely but I wasn't bowled over.
Eringi Ninniku Shoyu Grill (RM15/USD40.60) - Being a mushroom fan, I found myself really enjoying this dish. Thinly sliced mushroom with light shoyu; it's one dish that I usually order each time I dine here. I think I shall attempt doing my own version at home one day :o)
Volcano Roll (RM30/USD9.20 for 6 pieces) - Now this was a surprise hit for me as I don't like unagi . However, the combination of the ebiko (prawn roe) and unagi roll topped with cheese was just too delicious for me not to like. The rest of the JFKA's members were proud of me that day! Hahaha....
Salmon Zukushi (RM38/USD9.20) - A combo platter of salmon, salmon belly and salmon roe. Obviously something not ordered by me but I do like the way it looked :o).
Spider Roll (RM18/USD5.50) - Soft shell crab rolled with cucumber and topped with bonito flakes which was crunchy delicious.

Lyrical L : Wah, biz not so good until they had to freeze it that long (since it was still thawing when they served it to you!)?
j2kfm : This Northpoint is across from Midvalley, cross the bridge and you'll see it. For JFKA membership, one has to send it application and go through several series of "interview" by the board members :p
BBO : No need to die...like that can't eat. Hehehe...

Do you guys know why Ninja Jones has change a lot coz the previous Manager has resign oredy. I still prefer Danny(Manager) coz he realy know how to do recommendation and gaving the best services to us.
