Tonkichi

Went to Tonkichi after gg to Serene Center

But don't worry I didn't eat much! Just pinched stuff to taste.


I just drank the free tea (they didn't charge for tea :D)

Tonkichi specialises in pork chops.
This is the pork and oyster set (I think it costs $20 something) and they're really generous with the salad. This place kind of reminds me of Tampopo in Liang Court, which I also like. The food at Tampopo (means Dandelion or Daffodil or some flower in Jap) is really good too, and my favourite dish is the pork chop gratin and the miso ramen.The pork chop is nicely done, juicy inside and crispy and evenly breaded on the outside. We initially thought that the pork chop wasn't cooked cos it looked slightly translucent, then after we sent it back, we realised it was fat.
I think they use real japanese rice - see the nice glossy rice grains? very fragrant! Japanese rice is the only white rice that I like to eat! Yum!

Tonkichi is located in Iseatan at Shaw and its on the 3rd floor i think? or issit 4th? all the restaurants there lah...
