The unassuming front that I've walked past a few times did not catch my attention, but since my Japanese friend has started working there, we decided to meet there for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. There's no daily specials today, she said, only weekdays, which is fine since there were lots of other things on the menu to order from.We had a chicken and egg donburi, a cold udon, a potato croquette and an onigiri. The cooling tea was a nice touch, free of charge naturally. Everything tasted fresh
We had a chicken and egg donburi, a cold udon, a potato croquette and an onigiri. The cooling tea was a nice touch, free of charge naturally. Everything tasted fresh and had enough flavours to hold it together, which is what I needed on a slightly icky and humid afternoon. The onigiri was a little too hard and crispy and required a bit of chewing and chomping, especially when it cooled down. The potato croquette was much better, crispy on the outside, soft and mushy on the inside.
The decor is simple, a bar with a few high chairs and a couple of tables. There's Japanese TV showing and a few Jap mags and books on the table, even some travel guide books to HK and Guangdong for Japanese tourists. All their cutlery and utensils are good-quality disposables which I can understand for takeaways and deliveries, but it's not like they can't wash up the dishes for eat-in diners. Hong Kong doesn't have an advanced recycling system like in Japan where every item has a designated collection bin, so I hope they can adopt a greener policy in the future.My friend said they received some feedbacks from customers, and especially the Japanese people reckon there are too many fried stuff on the menu, so they're going to make some changes in the near future, and my friend will be the chef come June!
