Sakana Sushi Bar

Sakana Sushi Bar & Cuisine (30 August 2012)


Sakana was a sushi bar along Hutton Lane, George Town, Penang. It has now been taken over by a different management, and is now called To Kai Ya. Sakana opened in August, 2012, the first of the Sakana chain of sushi bars in Penang. The restaurant occupies the corner shoplot between Hutton Lane and Penang Road beside Cathay Cinema (today an outlet of Mydin). The restaurant offers a wide variety of Japanese dishes including the sushi, sashimi, maki, grilled dishes, handrolls and others.

Sakana Sushi has an open kitchen style bar. Patrons can view the entire kitchen operation and see how their food is prepared. The restaurant now has a new management, bringing with it a new menu and a new chef.

Although some people do not take raw food, Japanese food is almost not Japanese food without the raw items. Many who braved themselves to try it find that the raw slices of tuna, salmon, all freshly imported, are indeed absolutely delicious.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
