Ajitomi is a different sort of Japanese restaurant. It doesn't serve sushi.. Or any kind. It does, however, serve very homestyle Japanese meals. Things you would probably find in a typical Japanese home.Located in Circle Tower on Tung Lung Street, is a very quiet little restaurant. Everything felt like walking into a Muji store.

Located in Circle Tower on Tung Lung Street, is a very quiet little restaurant. Everything felt like walking into a Muji store. The customers were either Japanese housewives or English speaking expats. Interesting to note is the tables had a little shefl underneath. This is for women to place their purses. Super cute. No other reason for this photo. Just super cute. Osaka Meatballs with rice set ($96). The meal was placed before me like I was at home. The set came with three meatballs on top of rice, soft boiled egg, a bowl of shredded cabbage salad, appetizer, pickles and miso soup. The Osaka meatballs were moist and tasted a bit like teriyaki. It was pretty good and definitely felt like something a Japanese mother would make. The rice was that nice chewy Japanese rice. It came with a soft boiled egg that I poured onto the rice to mix it up with. It made the dish even better and more sweet. The appetizer was a bit of potato salad. It was a few bites but tasty enough. This was shredded cabbage with thousand island sauce. The cabbage was crunchy. It was ok but generally I hate shredded cabbage salad so I'm a bit biased on my dislike for it. I did notice that salads were all different for the different sets other people ordered. This is good so I know if I order something else next time, I won't get this salad. Miso soup was quite good. There was a generous amount of onion. It tasted more like French onion soup with a bit of miso. Interesting. I liked it. Lovely home style food. I think I've been here several times and always return.
