Have you heard of Sushi? Yes, we’re talking about the dish representing Japan globally. Some of us might have heard of Sushi or even eat it on a weekly basis without knowing its background. So, what exactly is sushi?

Sushi is a famous Japanese dish with different types of fillings covered in vinegar rice. Sushi was invented by a Japanese chef Hanaya Yonei and it was during the Edo period around the year 1824. This culturally rooted Japanese dish initially was only preferred by Japanese and some other Asian people (as it matches their tastes). 

Then, sushi started being famous in the USA (in the year 1900) after immigrants from Japan started selling sushi in America. Not long after that, sushi became a globally famous dish consumed by all kinds of people from all walks of life. Malaysia being a food-loving country did not fail to be one of the countries that started developing the culture of consuming sushi. Kuala Lumpur (KL) being the capital city certainly has one of the best sushi places in the country. Let’s look at the 11 best sushi in KL!
