It was such a delightful renunion lunch with my mentor who inspired me enormously when I first started my job 3 years ago.My mentor is a foodie and things will go never wrong with her choice of restaurant.On a rainy Tuesday we came to Gonpachi, which is well known for the yakitori and soba noodles. The restaurant presents a nice setting with lots of Japanese elements, it was spacious and the table we were seated at took in a great garden view.We started with the Caesar Salad with crispy Japanes
My mentor is a foodie and things will go never wrong with her choice of restaurant.
On a rainy Tuesday we came to Gonpachi, which is well known for the yakitori and soba noodles. The restaurant presents a nice setting with lots of Japanese elements, it was spacious and the table we were seated at took in a great garden view.
We started with the Caesar Salad with crispy Japanese pork and apple. Quite a heavy portion but it was all crunchy vegetables and very very crispy bacon so it just kicked off the lunch well!
I was then very impressed by the Home-made Tofu, which has the right mouth feel that is not too runny. It has the aroma of the beans and went so well with the plum dressing. It was such a delicate and refreshing starter.
The following dishes, which were mainly skewered meats and vegetables, also won hearts of ours. I love the Grilled Ox Tongue, it was just meaty, crunchy and full of flavor, a guilty pleasure I suppose?
The four of us tried the Gonpachi Pizza. We like the very thin crust which is topped by an interesting layer of minced chicken meat. Just good for girls to share and wasn't oily at all like other pizzas are.
We wouldn't miss the soba while it is the signature dish of the restaurant. I think this one is fair, sauce is light and refreshing but the soba itself wasn't really a wow. Rather not enough chew for me.
A very happy get-together with my mentor and my friends. Food does bring us together!
