i really love the ambience of the place! the food was amazing too. i ordered their signature crispy skin salmon with cajun rice and mashed potatoes. i think their mashed potatoes were amazing and the salmon was very juicy and tender! i also had their truffle fries and brownie with ice cream. the truffle tastes in the fries is not that prominent so if youre looking for a milder truffle taste, i would recommend their fries! all in all, it was a great experience! would come again in the future :)
Looks like a legend, tastes like a legend. Most satay beehoons are quite good because it's such a tedious and dying dish that only the artisans make it. But this has to be one of the best. Every component was so simple yet well executed. The whole was more than the sum of its parts. The pork and cuttlefish were incredible, while the sauce is so popular they sell it in individual packs.
a decent bento. got this for the sweet mash potato tbh🙈
Not bad enough to be inedible but it was very bad. Dry, sandy, nowhere near creamy enough to deserve the Hokkaido label. Please avoid(pity those who bought the large one, imagine the whole family have to suffer)
On the gyudon from the half half box like I was if you're ordering Miyazaki, fret not. There's a generous portion nested underneath, and it was very good. Apart from the usual suspects I think they got burdock inside as well.

Now a dedi for the staff(one man show, it's possible because the order and paying system is automated, as they should be lol). I consider myself a purist when it comes to food and I try my best to ignore every other aspect(exactly like Michelin claims lol). However once in a while someone makes your experience
The staff was very meticulous, you can see the effort she puts into arranging the zen so that it's aesthetically pleasing. So sedulous about her craft, that's really professionalism and in stark contrast to those who can't be bothered in some other establishments( I'm saying this because the very next meal, the manager at PIZZAKAYA was exactly like that, no enthusiasm and hardly gave a hoot about us. So the juxtaposition was real. )
She was very honest too, about how some of the stuff(dashi) were pre-made and sent from Japan, so while it was good she didn't know what went into it. Also mentioned how the steak in the half half don is nowhere near as good as the Miyazaki A4. As mentioned in the previous post she was very humble and didn't accept the compliment, even though it took a lot of skill to assemble that zen(ya roman.tei probably prepares a lot of the stuff, but the actual cooking and assembling is from this humble lady). She was very polite and told me to come try something else if I liked what I had today(her recommendations were on point too, it's exactly what I was going to try in the first place)
If I'm not wrong roman.tei is a restaurant in Japan and I can assure you you're getting restaurant quality service and food at this branch of &JOY. Such a joy!
The zen top-up is damn worth. Each little piece is done well, not to mention you get veg for a balanced meal I honestly had trouble finding complaints until halfway through the meal haha. Their garlic chips and pickles were weak but the rest were all good or exceptional
Almost 40nett but I can't stress how worth it this was. Yes you ditch the restaurant atmosphere but this atas food court stall otherwise gives the whole experience in terms of food. Miyazaki A4 was legit, that's all I got to say. You see it immediately when the lady takes the thin steak out to defrost. That alone should make your 40 bucks worth it. It wasn't caramelised but it was dainty as it should be, with such a thin piece it's important not to overcook and she did a perfect job. There's no give at all, it truly was almost melt in your mouth. Staff was very humble too, I told her it's very well executed but she said it's just that the meat was good
Their dashi was superb too. Really deep flavour and yet light. The ginger dressing on the salad was enjoyable too, it was a tad sweet. The tomato had an unusual marinade but was refreshing as it should be.
If you're looking for a fine dining experience without breaking the bank, this is a great option if youre willing to forgo the vibes. Now that you're only allowed to takeaway this is a good option too since the meat is not crispy in the first place

I went there on a friday night, not a long wait to get to our turn (15min). The atmosphere feels like you're dining in a small cafe in Italy which I love.
A few dishes I'd reccomend would be the burrata pizza. Its crispy and creamy with the cheese in the middle makes it really delicious. Paired with the pesto paste, it really complements it together.
The black truffle mac and cheese was really good as well. The truffle didnt overpower the mac n cheese but just enough to complement well with the creamy mac n cheese.
Lastly would be the fried calamari. Many places would mess up the calamari easily but heavily battering the squid or just buy it frozen but this restaurant did it just right. The light yet flavorful calamari got me hooked instantly that I got another plate to share.
Overall I'd reccomend this place 100% and would definitely come again. However, make sure to come a little earlier so that you have to queue so long :)) Really worth with the burpple deal as well
