Broiled Lobster Chowder & Crab Croutons -RM18.90
A place that serves good yakitori with beer and whiskey always sounds great especially after you've had a long day at work. As for me, I am absolutely enjoy having the flavorful Broiled Lobster Chowder & Crab Croutons with a pint of Kirin beer - not bad at all.
Torii, a Japanese-accented gastro-bar, dedicated to the twin pleasures of yakitori and divine whiskey. The menu featuring grilled skewered meats, seafood, and vegetables. Also, with a range of unique Japanese-inspired dishes. The story behind the name "Torii" is tri-faceted. Firstly, Torii is a play on the Japanese word "Yakitori", which essentially means grilled chicken. Torii also alludes to Mr. Shinjiro Torii, widely regarded as the father of the Japanese whiskey industry. Finally, Torii in Japanese also means a traditional Japanese gate leading into a shrine.

The Torii Fried Rice is super delicious! This is probably the one dish that I refuse to share with anyone. Mix everything and you can enjoy such perfect combination of everything in one bowl. Please make sure you order this one unless you don't like the taste of foie gras. And, if you don't fancy fried rice, do give a try to their Autumn Risotto! It was really good too!
Single scoop ice cream -RM12.90
whiskey-n-raisin, white chocolate lavender, and dark chocolate sorbet
I totally enjoyed both whiskey-n-raisin and dark chocolate sorbet. The dark chocolate sorbet is really rich in dark chocolate with a hint of bitterness, just the way I love it! The white chocolate lavender tasted kinda weird to my liking.
