Tonkichi @ Takashimaya Shopping Centre

Last Saturday, it was sort of like a partial family outing. Sis, Bro and I went out to have lunch. It has been some time since we ate with our bro! (Ya, we live under the same roof, but we don't really eat together. He's always at work till late.)

We walked around Takashimaya, hunting for food. We eventually decided to have Jap. So we went to Tonkichi.



Sis had the Rosu Curry. $22. It comes with a bowl of curry.
(Aha.. sis said that I make equally nice curry and taste the same)



With the curry is the Katsu.
(But I can't make nice katsu. haha.. Our kitchen at home is out of bounds to fried food. We hate cleaning oily kitchen hehe..)



Plus a salad.



Bro had the Miso Rosu Katsu Set. $21. Almost similar to sis, except it has the Miso sauce.
For those who love cabbage, rice and miso soup, if you order a set meal, you can have refills of it. We had refills of cabbage but not rice. The salad sauce to be poured over the cabbage is very nice. Light and tangy. One of the reasons we had refills of cabbage :-)



I had the Sauce Katsu Set $22. The diff, mine had the sauce poured over it and shredded seaweed on top. Salty but yummmie....



No, it's not black pig, but it is a satisfying lunch.



Do you usually have meals with your siblings?

Tonkichi @ Takashimaya Shopping Centre

Wow, I just show the sauce in yesterday's post and there are people who actually can name the restaurant and the dish! I am so so impressed!

Yes, Evolution_FreeStyles, ryozan and Camemberu is so right. Yesterday, we went to Tonkichi at Takashimaya 4th floor and had Tonkatsu!



Momo had the Hire Katsu. It looks delicious eh?
On the menu, it says it is premium healthy pork! 4 pieces of it. The veg behind can be topped up if you like more.



For me, I suddenly turned healthy and did not take any fried food!
I had Ton Shabu. White Pork instead, and it look so so healthy right? It's very delicious as well!

I love the cucumber pickle below too, and the extremely fiery wasabi! It's the 'shoot right up the head' kind of potency. It comes with a bowl of sauce as well, but it taste very good with the sesame tonkatsu sauce for Momo's dish.



My set came with this delicious bamboo dish too. Too bad it was only a small bowl.
Ooops, some of my wasabi dropped in. :-)



Both were sets, and they came with very good rice and the usual pickles and Miso Soup.



Actually, we also had Cawanmushi. Picture looks usual, so not here.
Plus, Tonjiru. This is actually Miso Soup as well, plus "lots of other nice stuff", quoting the lady who was taking our order. haha..

It really is nice, much nicer than the Miso soup that came with it. There's meat, toufu, bamboo shoots, etc... But you got to have a high tolerance of sodium though :-)



Have a wonderful Friday!

Oh... if you want to know more about yesterday's photo, visit Camemberu's entry about her wonderful Tonkatsu in Japan. I want to try it too!!!

We were playing with food at a Jap place.

Earlier tonite, went with Momo to have dinner. OK, let's have a game. Anyone can guess where this place is and what are we playing with?

After we ordered our food, this came to the table. Hmmm. (we were suaku!) We had to asked what was it for? Toasted white sesame was the reply.




We were suppose to grind them. Then pour the 'x' sauce into it, to go with one of the dishes.



We did not grind them too fine, so that we can still have some 'bits' of it. I wonder if it's suppose to be like that. The moment we crushed them, it smell so so good!



Anyway, we poured in 'x' sauce in.



Then stir.....



Anyone knows what sauce was poured in? :-)
