Aoki-tei at Kota Damansara: Restaurant review

The new face of Japanese buffet: Aoki-Tei promises an all-you-can-eat array of dishes prepared to order (to curb wastage).

Over 100 dishes to choose from

From sashimi platters to soft-shell crab hand rolls and salmon avocado reverse rolls, miso-glazed eggplant to salt-grilled mackerel, crackers topped with salmon and cheese to tofu pouches stuffed with oysters, deep-fried prawns with chicken floss to sizzling mixed seafood to ice cream desserts, and much more from a menu that breached 172 dishes when we visited in 2015.

Buffet prices

Aoki-tei’s most recent prices were RM58++ for lunch and RM78++ for dinner (evenings tend to showcase a wider range), with discounts for kids and senior citizens – fair for so much food (which is neither top-of-the-line nor bottom-of-the-barrel).

The ultimate incentive is a no-strings-attached free flow of alcoholic beverages – as of early 2016, bottomless beer for lunch, beer & sake during dinner.
