jap 🍙🍱

Had the gyu-don that was on Beyond. Beef was tender and the flavour of the onions was cooked well into the meat and sauce. Serving portion was pretty generous as well, had no need to eat more after finishing this bowl!

if you like matcha and hojicha, don’t miss this store!!! it’s located very centrally, and their offerings include mains, but we were there for the dessert 🤗 this hojicha parfait was gorgeous and the hojicha and vanilla soft serve plus cornflakes went together beautifully. the jelly at the bottom was quite interesting, a bit like guilingao. i was not a big fan of the whipped cream on top 🙃

The pretty decor was at odds with the food available, nevertheless the two rice bowls we had were both impressive. We got the Salmon Mentaiko Aburi and the Truffle Wagyu rice bowls. The Salmon Mentaiko Aburi rice bowl was filling had a generous serving of both torched salmon and mentaiko sauce - if you like heavy flavours (like me) you would love this. the Truffle Wagyu rice bowl was very generous with the truffle and beef, but that was it for me. they used a pretty lean cut of beef that got a little tough at times, and the whole dish was on the sweet side. Do come at an earlier time or perhaps make a reservation, they tend to get very very crowded!!
