KARA appeared to be quite packed with students from nearby schools and institutions, but it was surely not just a frozen yoghurt shop, just because it was by Sogurt. It seemed that they also served coffee, snacks and proper meals, and their latest additions had some Japanese or Sichuan influences.

Their Aburi Mentaiko Salmon grain bowl (S$16.00) was filled with cooked salmon bits, but more distinctively there was the Mentaiko mayonnaise that gave the food a nice pinkish appearance, before further garnished and topped with an open Ajitama (boiled egg with molten yolk). It would have been aesthetically pleasing to have the yolk slightly less cooked, but the overall flavours of the dish easily compensated that imperfection.

A more guilt-free option was to substitute the Garlic Japanese Rice with Quinoa Salad for an additional S$3.00, to get more dietary fibre and less carbohydrate intake out of a grain bowl.
