Tatsuya


This is an overdue entry for sure since the lunch was on last Wednesday and i post it only today :P

Anyway, the lunch at Tatsuya was good. Really value for money. Like what i mentioned earlier, they have 8-10 bento sets to choose from but not $26.80+++ each though. It ranges from 19.80+++ to $26.80+++ for the most expensive. You get practically everything in the bento set.. from appetizer to fruits.

My gf, Tanny was pretty torn between 3 bento sets. Lol. Couldn't decide since everything looks so good but in the end, she had the Unajyu Sashimi set which consists of Unadon, sashimi, variety of tempura, chawan mushi, soup and last but not least, fruits.

For myself, i knew almost straight away what i wanted because the night before that, i was having a very bad crave for cold soba or udon. So when i saw the ladies lunch set, i was actually jumping with joy inside. Lol.

My ladies lunch bento set consists of cold taufoo and potato salad as appetizer, cold udon, chawan mushi, 4 pieces of california maki, 4 pieces of raw fish sushi and last but not least, fruits. I was stuffed up to my neck at the end of our meals. Actually, half way through pigging out, i was already full but somehow, i managed to force myself to finish the whole thing. Hehe.. too yummy to be wasted! :P

My gf and i both agreed that the chawan mushi gotta be the smoothest chawan mushi we've ever tasted. For Tanny, her unadon was normal, just like any other unadon you can get from japanese restaurants. We both love the way the set was presented though. So kawaii! They stacked the unadon and sashimi together and it was covered with lid, you know like a cute lunch box. We like! :D

For me, i really love the cold udon. I've never eaten any cold udon which is this good. Really really smooth and slippery but chewy at the same time. Tried very hard to fight back the temptation of slurrrping the udon out loud. Whoa.. imagine if i could do that. Ssslllluuurrrppp. Total s-h-i-o-k-n-e-s-s. Grin.

Besides the udon, i love the california maki as well. They included something inside the maki but i can't quite figure what it was, which happened to add the zing to the maki. As for the sushi, i personally find it normal. Probably because this was an economical lunch set, the sushi was pretty small in size and of course, the sliced fishes on top were abit small for me to go wow.. juicy and fresh.

Nevertheless, our overall experience at Tatsuya was a fantastic one. You can safely bet that i will definitely go back to savour more in the near future. Have been craving for their cold udon since Thursday already. Lol :P
