JIKKA opened down the street from my home recently. Right when the 5th wave was in full force and dining restrictions was extremely strict.

What they serve is Western food with a healthy focus. No MSG, low sugar, low salt. That is their motto.

The restaurant has two floors so there is plenty of space to dine. Menu is in English and  Chinese. Ordering is by scanning a QR code. It wasn't a very smooth interface and froze a bit when I was ordering so they just took my order the old fashioned way.

I didn't want regular tap water so I ordered a drink. Lunch sets have a choice of drinks at a discounted price. I had a Rose Oolong Cold Brew ($15). This was served in a glass bottle. A light scent of rose could be detected.

The lunch set includes a choice of soup. I chose the Corn Soup. A fairly large bowl. It was ok but not a great soup. It was not creamy and just felt more like they blitzed kernals with broth and not much else.

I chose a Prawn Hotdog ($115) for my main. It came with a side of salad where it was just salad greens. The dressing was served on the side and was basically balasmic vinegar and olive oil. I'm unsure why it was served on the side like a dip. However the prawn hotdog was very good. The bun was lightly toasted. The sausage was crisp. On top was bits of grilled shrimp. All with a squiggle of mayo. Everything held together well without falling apart.

Portion was fine but it was I felt it was a bit overpriced. For this price, there are other restaurants in this area offering something in this price range for more than just a hotdog. Thus, not much value for money. Food is good and service was nice. But I can understand why no one was dining in and everyone opted for take away. Which is something I might opt to do as well in the future.
