Katsu-an (Suntec City)

Had the Pork Katsuni Teishoku ($11.50) and the Loin Katsu Teishoku ($7.90 for 80g). Quality was so-so, but I appreciated the full range of condiments provided that helped to elevate the flavour. Katsu sauce, apricot sauce, salad dressing, shichimi, and even mustard. Good for a value for money and casual meal.

Had the Katsu Don ($5.90) and I would say there is an improvement now. The rice is more moist and less dry compared to previously. Really like it

Went to Katsu-an two weeks ago to try their Loin Katsu and Calamari Fry Teishoku 80g ($12.90)!😇 Overall ratings 9/10! Food was really good and affordable, highly recommend the calamari fry as it is soft and not overly chewy🤣 You are also able to pick the quantity of rice you would like which is great!! Would definitely revisit again😄

For a $1.50 top-up, you get to enjoy Katsu-an's clam miso soup instead of the standard miso soup.

I love the sweet, juicy and plump clams in the soup and there were plenty in each bowl. The soup itself was rich and full of umami. It's a little pricey but I do recommend the top-up!

Besides the pork cutlets, Katsu-an also serves a variety of side dishes such as squid karage.

The squid is soft and has a nice bite and I love the crispy battered crust around it. My only objection though is that it costs nearly the same price as a bowl of their katsudon!

I will be honest and admit that I didn't expect much from Katsu-an's basic $5.90 katsudon because it costs as much as what I would expect to pay for a kopitiam cai png these days!

Each bowl of Japanese pearl rice comes topped with fluffy and savoury dashi seasoned scrambled eggs and onions, and a good sized portion of pork loin. I actually found myself enjoying their pork loin more as the meaty flavours were stronger and the quality of the pork loin at this price point!

Tbh if I am paying $10 for pork katsu, I would be better off with the 'M' chain of hawker stalls. But at $6 per bowl, their katsudon is really value for money considering the location!

And for those who are hungry and don't mind spending a little more, Katsu-an has upsize options ala Sukiya!
