Minced meat croquette. Oyakodon.
This is a branch of a famous oyakodon shop here. I actually tried to go to the original shop before when I happened to be in the neighbourhood but it was closed. Both the original shop and the branch get quite a lot of publicity on TV and magazines so I always wanted to give it a try. Met up a friend for dinner. First shock : 700yen for just two teeny-weeny croquettes?! Second shock: the egg in the oyakodon was a bit too cooked to my liking and the sauce was too strong and too much that it soaked through all the rice. Final shock: there was this incredibly rude guy(possibly the owner?) who refused to give us time to look at the menu and asked us 3 times in a row “Still not ready to order?”. He literally chased us(and the couple next to us) out of the restaurant once we finished the food and were still drinking the tea. We were only there for like 50 mins….
