General description:
Japanese home cooking in a box. You can get the combo, which is a pretty good deal, for you get to pick two items out of three, or you can order different kinds of curry and different kinds of don. I like their chicken katsu curry and oyako don very much. For vegetarians, there is tofu don, but you might want to ask about that broth, it could be bonito stock. What I like the best, though, is their onigiri. It is nothing special, just white rice wrapping some pan fried salmon inside with a piece of nori on the outside, but it just tastes very very comforting. If you can’t finish it, leave it for the next morning, add tea or hot water to it, then you’ll have yourself a bowl of chazuke for breakfast. Their daily special is also a good deal, usually with one grilled and one fried main items in the box, with additional side dieshes. Most appetizing.
