The craft

What happens
behind the counter.

Three habits, in the order they happen — the morning cut, the flame when you order it, and the squeeze just before the bowl reaches you.

A bowl of salmon cut into cubes this morning 01 · The morning
The knife work

Cut today. Not yesterday.

Every counter slices its own fish each morning, in small batches, in front of you. That was true of one small shop in Taman Tun in 2016 and it hasn't changed since.

Aburi

Torched to order.

Thirty seconds of flame turns shoyu salmon sweet at the edges and leaves it cool in the middle. Nothing sits under a lamp waiting for you. It's the bowl we'd order for ourselves.

The last thing in

Citrus, right at the end.

The squeeze goes on after the bowl is built, never before. Ponzu on rice that's been sitting is a soggy bowl — we'd rather hand you a bright one and let you eat it while it's still sharp.

Our story

Before anyone
could say poké.

One square of paper. One fish.
Folded with care — the same idea that goes in the bowl.

In 2016 we opened a small counter in Taman Tun with a cold case of salmon and a queue of people working out what a poké bowl even was. We were one of the first poké bars in the Klang Valley — before it was a trend, and long before it was on every mall floor.

Nearly a decade on, the knife work hasn't changed. We still cut to order, still name every ingredient, still let you build it your way.

Fold by fold, the same way every morning.

FAQ on Paperfish
What is a poke bowl?

Poke — say it POH-kay — is a Hawaiian dish of marinated raw fish served over rice or salad. At Paperfish you pick a base, two sauces, four sides and a protein, then as many toppings as you like. No idea? We'll build it for you.

Is poke a good meal in hot weather?

Yes — a poke bowl is served cold, which is most of the appeal in this weather. The fish is cut and marinated the same morning and kept in a cold case; nothing sits under a heat lamp waiting for you. It eats light rather than heavy — cold rice or crisp salad, four sides, and the citrus that goes on right at the end — so it lands as something refreshing on a hot afternoon rather than something you need to sleep off.

Where are Paperfish outlets located?

What are your opening hours?

Both outlets open daily, 10:00 am to 9:30 pm.

How much is a poke bowl at Paperfish?

Signature bowls run from RM19.90 to RM26.90 before 6% SST. Chicken, avocado and mushroom bowls are RM19.90, shrimp is RM22.90, raw salmon and tuna are RM24.90, and torched salmon is RM26.90. Building your own costs the same as the protein you pick.

Do you have vegetarian options?

Yes. Vegelicious at RM19.90 is built on zesty avocado with broccoli, cherry tomatoes, tofu and tamago, and Mushroom Frenzy is a second meat-free protein. On build-your-own you can pick tofu, avocado or mushroom and stay meat-free through all five steps.

Do you have anything for someone who does not eat raw fish?

Yes — about half the menu. Torched salmon at RM26.90 is the one to try first: thirty seconds of flame to order, in shoyu, spicy, citrus or miso wasabi, sweet and cooked at the edges and still cool in the middle. Fully cooked, there is sea-salt shrimp and mango salsa shrimp at RM22.90, and cajun or chimichurri chicken at RM19.90 — the chicken is grilled to order and takes about five minutes. Two proteins are meat-free: zesty avocado and mushroom frenzy, both RM19.90. Every one of them is built through the same five steps.

Can I get Paperfish delivered?

Yes — both outlets are on GrabFood as separate stores, Paperfish TTDI and Paperfish USJ Taipan. Sauce goes in its own tub so the greens stay crisp on the way. You can also order ahead and collect at the counter.

Order on GrabFood

Do I need to know what I want before I order?

No. Say "no idea" at the counter and we'll build it for you — it's how a good number of first-timers order.

What is the difference between raw, cooked and torched?

Raw is cut and marinated cold — salmon and tuna, RM24.90. Cooked is shrimp, chicken, avocado or mushroom, RM19.90 to RM22.90, and the chicken takes about five minutes. Torched is shoyu salmon finished with thirty seconds of flame, sweet at the edges and still cool in the middle, RM26.90.

Do you cater for offices and events?

Yes — a bowl bar our team runs on site, or bowls boxed and labelled for handing out. Same menu, same prices, from RM19.90 a bowl. Send us the headcount and the date and we answer the same day.

FAQ on Catering
How far do you deliver?

Both outlets cover the Klang Valley. TTDI serves KL and the north-west, USJ Taipan serves Subang, Puchong and Shah Alam. Tell us the address and we will say yes or no straight away.

Can you do halal?

Every bowl is pork-free and we serve no alcohol. For the current halal position, ask us on WhatsApp — we would rather answer that in writing than on a web page.

What if the headcount changes?

Tell us up to 24 hours before and we will adjust it. Inside 24 hours we build to the confirmed number.

Do you set up and clear away?

On bowl-bar bookings, yes — our team arrives early, builds through the session and clears down after. Boxed bowls are dropped and gone.

Can we see a menu first?

Yes. Ask on WhatsApp and we will send the current one with prices, before and after SST.

Coming soon
