From Otoko at Sultan Cafe in Sultan Plaza — not to be confused with Otoko Ramen at Alexandra. A small coffeeshop stall that sells Donburi and Curry Rice, they offer a variety of the usual expects one would find in a Japanese stall including Teriyaki Chicken Don and Oyako Don. Coming with a sous-vide egg, a salad and Miso Soup, this was delightful and one of the more impressionable and better Japanese dons I have had from a coffeeshop. The beef was thinly sliced, so you get a little bite but texturally coherent without pieces too tough nor dry that was delightful to have. The meat was also not marinated in too much sauce, and was lightly savoury while complimented with a dash of Yakiniku sauce in the rice, providing just enough flavour without being overwhelmingly. Even the rice is well-cooked; it's often to get mushy lumps of rice that are too wet in neighborhood Japanese stalls from hawkers/coffeeshop/food courts but this was perfect where you can feel every grain. One of the more pricier items here given it costs $8 (the Curry Pork Katsu costs $7 in comparison), but the quality is definitely worth the little pinch imo.
