Stacks Japanese Restaurant @ SS15 Subang Jaya

Stacks Japanese Restaurant joins the interesting eatery scene in SS15 Subang with fulfilling and innovative offerings. I was around SS15 with my baby nieces and decided to give this cute restaurant just opposite Inti College a try.

At first flip of the menu, I realized that the dishes are earnestly priced, making it one of the more reasonable places to dine in this city. Apt for students, families and a fine place to bring your date without burning a hole in your wallet. The range of food is also extensive, covering from appetizers to udons, ramens and desserts - almost all the necessary Japanese staples.

I couldn't help catching the Ramadan poster from the corner of my eye. The reconstructed egg Sarang Burung Stacks looks like they have innovation as one of their ingredients.
