While most Japanese restaurants in Malaysia mimic Japanese decor only as far as to inject the atmosphere of their restaurants with a tinge of Japanese air (by way of a tatami mat or two), Aji No Ren looks to traditional Japanese houses for inspiration. They’ve even taken it so far as to renounce the use of chairs for one section and have their patrons on the floor in true Japanese fashion. Food wise, they have a good range of bento boxes, sushi and sashimi. While waiting for your orders to arrive, you can grab and browse through one of the Japanese comics from a shelf by the corner.
