Been craving for yakitori since I got back from Japan. Consulted Mr. Google to see if there's any new yakitori place other than Shinjiro in Tropicana City Mall and this Moku place popped up. Since it was nearby my friend's office, I asked her to meet me there after work to dig into some grilled skewers. 

Moku serves other mains like teriyaki chicken, salmon steak and pastas as well, but all my thoughts were reined on the skewers, so I passed on the rest. 

From left: Pork belly slices with enoki mushrooms, tiger prawn and chicken gizzard.

From bottom: Scallops, pork slices with enoki mushrooms and smoked duck. Succulent meat with Teriyaki-like sauce.

The baby octopus was a disappointment though - overcooked, hard to chew and tasted like rubber!!

From bottom: Gizzard, chicken wings, brinjal, shiitake mushrooms and lady fingers. The veggies were quite soft and juicy, though the photo looked otherwise :)

Beer and yakitori are one of the world's greatest combination!

One of my favorite ways to unwind? Yakitori with a glass of cold beer! After all, yakitori is best known as every Japanese oyaji's favorite beer snack ^^. My friend is kinda allergic to alcohol, so she went with the Power of 3 (cucumber, dragonfruit + watermelon) juice (RM12). And since we both love enoki mushrooms, we ordered 2 of that!

More mushrooms :D These butter mushrooms were tender and flavorful.

Streaky bacon.

Deep fried quill. Crunchy.

Overall, Moku is quite a nice place for reasonably priced mouthwatering meat-on-a-stick. Its simple interior, mainly in wood, provide a relaxing environment to hang out after work or to have a chat with a couple of friends. Comparing Moku and Shinjiro - Shinjiro's skewers are slightly more scrumptious and come with creative chef-recommended sauces, though a tad pricier.
