Good day everyone!

We decided to open a lil' bit of our blinder for you to peek inside.


For us, lighting is as important as the quality of cuisine we serve. We decided to prime the atmosphere with some warmth and radiant vibe to create ultimate dining experience, all for you.

Called it a place to dine, a place to chillax, a place to celebrate, a place to spread love, a place to share happiness, a place to laugh, a place to cry (oh, please don't!), a place to read, a place to gossip, a place to meet new people, a place to (you name it)...

Whatever it is, we would like to welcome everyone from all walks of life to experience the whole new atmosphere. =)

About the DUO

Introducing...

Chef-Liang (left) and the proprietor Bryan.

Bryan Tan grew up immersing himself with family established business based on automobile parts supply. Bored of the same old stuffs & armed with his passion in food, he decided to venture into the F&B sphere- by becoming a restaurateur, setting up his first wholly owned restaurant, ISSHIN YA Japanese restaurant.

The idea became a reality as collaboration with his childhood school mate, who is now a skillful Japanese chef, happened.

Chef-Liang's experiences include having spent more than 7 years at Genki Sushi, Singapore with 4 years serving as Senior Chef and also had enhanced his expertise in Japanese fine-dining at a restaurant in the Lion City.

Now he is back to where he belongs - Kemaman, putting his heart into Isshin Ya to serve the yummiest Japanese cuisine to all of you.

What's more? Come and taste his touch!

ISSHIN YA in the making...

Hi folks!!!

First and foremost, Isshin Ya team would like to welcome each and every of you to this blog. We called it the BULETTIN board because this is the best way for us to reach out to you.

To make it simple, Isshin Ya Japanese Restaurant will be making its debut in Kemaman very very soon.

" ISSHIN [iz-sheen] means Of One Heart and Mind "

It also carries the meaning of complete change or reform.

That's what the proprietor had in his mind when he first came out with the idea of making a gastronomic reform in the local area. Also, bringing a flavour change and serving the cuisine wholeheartedly to the people there and every food enthusiasts.
And so... Isshin Ya is born.

Oh well, enough of that, renovation work in making its way and we are now trailing every bits of the preparation in order to make it purrfect when Isshin Ya opens its door to every of you to this gastronomic galore!

Sit back and watch out for more updates to come!
