Nestled in middle of the city center, Hajime Tokyo Restaurant is located in the bungalow area of Ampang where the bungalows are turned into fine dining restaurants.
Some of their cutlery is cat themed which is really cute! :)

There is this promotion going on to customize your own maki. Tried the simple Shake Maki (RM11) that is Salmon Roll which was really fresh. They have a few more types of ingredients to add but I forgot to take note.
Delicious cold noodles! Three varieties! Smooth! Leisei Sanchoku Men (RM28) is cold noodles consisting of buckwheat soba, somen and green tea soba which was really good. Dip it into soya sauce and slurp it. So refreshing! This is a good combination to order so that you can taste the different varieties of noodles to know what are the textures and taste.

Black Spider Roll (RM20) was delicious. The soft shell crab is nicely fried and topped with plenty of salmon roe. It came in four large pieces. Wished that it could be more.
Dragon Roll (RM28) was really huge. Deep fried tempura prawns smacked in the middle and topped with unagi and avocado. The taste was pretty explosive!

Iidiako Salad (RM18) which is squid salad was good too. The dressing is not too heavy and more on the light side with plenty of fresh vegetables. However, it still can't beat the salad that I had in MOF in Singapore that I blogged about here.
Wagyu Roll with Shimeji Mushrooms (RM36) is excellent. The beef was well marinated with bits of crispy fried garlic. The beef wraps the fresh shimeji mushrooms and the combination really tasted really good.
Do make reservations as the restaurant is pretty packed.
