What is the cheapest thing at Empire Sushi?
RM 1.30. That’s the entry point for individual pieces at Empire Sushi, and it’s genuinely cheap by mall-sushi standards. You won’t build a meal on the very cheapest pieces alone, but the sub-RM 2.00 tier is deep enough to eat well: five gunkan at RM 1.40 each is RM 7.00 for a real snack. The price ladder is gentle too. Nothing on the budget end jumps suddenly, so adding one nicer piece barely moves your total.
| Cheapest Picks | Details | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Individual pieces (entry) | Cheapest single pieces on the menu | From RM 1.30 |
| Sweet Shoyu / Salty Shoyu | Dressing sachets | RM 1.20 |
| Wasabi / Ginger / Spicy Powder | Condiments | RM 1.20 |
| Kewpie Mayonnaise | Dressing sachet | RM 1.20 |
What are the cheapest gunkan, maki, and nigiri?
The budget sweet spot lives in three categories. Gunkan from RM 1.40 gives you the mayo-based classics (corn, tuna, egg, potato, chuka wakame) that are filling for their price. Maki from RM 1.80 covers the everyday rolls. Nigiri’s cheapest is Tamago at RM 1.40. If you want premium flavor without premium harga, check the Empire Sushi best sellers too: Chuka Idako and Ebiko are both RM 2.20.
| Budget Item | Category | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Corn Mayo | Gunkan | RM 1.40 |
| Chuka Wakame | Gunkan | RM 1.40 |
| Tuna Mayo | Gunkan | RM 1.40 |

| Spicy Futo Maki | Maki | RM 1.80 |

How do you eat well for under RM 10?
Five pieces is the magic number. At RM 1.40 to RM 1.80 per piece, five pieces land between RM 7.00 and RM 9.00, which is a proper snack and enough for a light lunch if you’re not starving. Eight pieces push you to about RM 12 to RM 15. The no-brainer move, though, is the TambahJer 5-piece set at RM 6.80: Tempura Ebi, Kanikama, Tuna Mayo, Ebiko, and Inari in one tray, running at all kiosk outlets since 7 October 2026. Buying those five separately would cost more than RM 6.80, so it’s a genuine deal, not a marketing trick.
| Budget Tray | Build | Price |
|---|---|---|
| TambahJer set | Tempura Ebi, Kanikama, Tuna Mayo, Ebiko, Inari | RM 6.80 |
| 5x RM 1.40 gunkan | Any mix of corn, tuna, egg mayo gunkan | RM 7.00 |
| 5x RM 1.80 maki | Any mix of the six maki varieties | RM 9.00 |
| Mixed 5-piece | 2 gunkan + 2 maki + 1 nigiri, roughly | ~RM 8.00 |
Cheapest-to-filling swaps
Want more food per ringgit? Mayo-based gunkan (corn, tuna, egg, potato) are the most filling cheap pieces because the mayo adds richness and the rice portion is generous. Maki rolls look smaller but each piece has more rice than you’d guess. The one swap to avoid on a budget: hand rolls and onigiri at RM 6.00 each. One hand roll costs as much as four cheap gunkan, so skip them until you’re eating with a bigger budget.
What are the cheapest drinks and extras?
Drinks are the one place the budget logic breaks a little. Ice Mountain water is RM 2.50, and the canned drinks (100 Plus, Coke, Oyoshi teas, Fun Flavours) are RM 3.50 each. A RM 3.50 drink next to a RM 7.00 tray of sushi is a big ratio, so budget eaters often skip the drink or grab water. Dressings and condiments are all RM 1.20, cheap enough to not think about.
| Drink / Extra | Details | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Ice Mountain Water | Bottled water | RM 2.50 |
| 100 Plus | Isotonic drink | RM 3.50 |
| Coke | Canned | RM 3.50 |
| Oyoshi Green Tea / Lemon Tea | Canned | RM 3.50 |
| Grape / Strawberry Fun Flavours | Canned | RM 3.50 |
| All dressings & condiments | Shoyu, wasabi, ginger, kewpie, spicy powder | RM 1.20 |
