Working life in Hong Kong is known for being hectic and worker bees around the city barely have enough time to have a decent lunch, let alone enjoy it. With the average lunch time being just 1 hour, a lot of people rush out for a quick bite; some just don't even bother and end up ordering delivery. That's why fast food restaurants and online delivery services have a market in our city. Having a schedule this packed, it's no surprise that the idea of leisurely flipping meat briskets and basking i
The Yakiku Set w/ extra meat (HK$118)
This branch of Futago is located near my office which is right below the J Plus hotel. My friend and I went in without making a reservation and was told that it was full at first (1:15pm); but after a two minute wait they sat us down as I guess some of their customers pulled a no show. Since we got there relatively later than the regular lunch hour, we were told that the bento combos (HK$80+) on the lunch menu were sold out, and we could only order the yakiniku sets, which was what we wanted to get in the first place. We ordered two of the Yakiku Set (bottom left on the menu) with extra meat; the set comes with a bunch of side dishes and a drink.

Side Dishes
The side dishes of the set were served first. The portion was definitely generous with the rice and salad filled to the top and over. The kimchi is your standard kimchi, but it was a pleasant surprise to see that they have included two pieces of tamagoyaki and seaweed.

The Meat
The meat came shortly after. Considering that we ordered the extra meat option, it felt like this was the original size as we left feeling full but not belly out kind of full as I had expected for ordering extra meat. The assortment included beef ribs, pork neck, chicken tender, pork belly, and ox tongue. The briskets were decently sized, but it did give off a feeling that they were scraps. Nonetheless, I do recommend getting the Yakiku Set because it has the most variety of meat.

The stove was very cute and petite with an exhaust pipe right above it. We got to adjust the flames which added to the fun, but as an infrequent BBQ-er, we burnt quite a few batches. It would be a plus if waiters came over and helped us out a bit when they see that the meat is starting to burn, just like they do in Seoul, Korea. Nonetheless, the meat itself was marinated nicely, definitely full of flavor, and very moist. It tasted great when dipped into the soy sauce with sesame seeds.

The set comes with drink options. I chose an iced Oolong tea to combat the fattiness of the whole meal, and my friend decided to go all out and got a coke.

Overall the entire lunch experience was great. The restaurant was comfortable, it wasn't too noisy, and it was clean. What made it even more clean was the fact that we were given aprons; that way we would leave without any significant BBQ odor and oil stains. We left the restaurant at approximately 2:00pm, which totaled our dining time to around 45 minutes. I think for a lunch experience, it was definitely feasible from a worker bee's point of view, considering that the service was quick, the price point was resonable, and the mess was contained.
