After looking through all the restaurants on offer in Windsor House, decided to give this place a chance because it had some "yummy" items on the menu. Especially some of the udon combinations. Started off with the handmade chicken / egg udon, but was not so impressed when the dish was presented. Totally NOT what the picture had depicted (although it never is at most restaurants). The flavour was somewhat lacking and overall feeling from the dish... average.
The side dishes we got however were a bit more interesting. Both the tomato dumpling (with tomato taste with pork inside the dumpling as well as a zesty tomato salsa type sauce to go with it) and the spinach and ham croquette (spinach blended into a mostly potato type fried dumpling) were ok as compliments to the main dish, it was just a shame that the main dish had been so much of a let down.
We did however top it all off with a mochi pork dumpling which was a nice surprise. The "mochi"-ness was mainly in the pastry of the dumpling, and the rest just tasted like a regular dumpling, but it did give a somewhat unique twist on the original.
Overall, not much here to justify a return meal, unless totally craving an economical japanese fix, with no other options in place...
