Eat at Seven: Tonkatsu Agedoki

Eat at Seven at level 3 of Suntec City Mall features 7 of Japan's best and trending specialist concept restaurants are brought into Singapore by Global Retail Partners, a joint venture by ANA Trading, Komars Group and local restaurateur Mr Andrew Tan who owns Tomo F&B Group.
 
Japanese cuisine is one of my favourite cuisines, so I am going to dedicate the whole of December to the review of these 7 restaurants. 
 
My colleague went to Tonkatsu Agedoki and he was full of praises of the Curlet of Prawns Wrapped with Pork, claiming that it is the best tonkatsu he has ever eaten. Let's go and try this special tonkatsu and see if it lives up to the praise.

I like the concise menu with only 6 items.

This restaurant uses Hokkaido rice, which is known for its fragrant aroma.

A huge bowl of chopped lettuce is served as an appetizer, alongside other nibbles.

Thick Slice Pork Loin Cutlet Set Meal is the juicier version while Thick Slice Pork Cutlet Set Meal is leaner. The cutlet is pretty dry and tasteless, a vast difference from the juicy meat I had at Tonkatsu by Ma Maison (Westgate) and Saboten (Millenia Walk and IMM outlets).

This is the Cutlet of Wrapped Prawns with Pork Set Meal which my colleague was raving about, but it has not won me over. I agree that wrapping is pork around a prawn and frying it as a tonkatsu is an ingenious idea, but it lacked the explosion of flavours that I was anticipating. The prawn is too small to give the sweetness that is needed and the pork is too thick that it overpowers the prawn. 
 
Tonkatsu Agedoki is the sister restaurant of long-queue Tempura Kohaku and they share the same kitchen although the staff explained that they use different frying machines. This is one restaurant that is not suitable for a hurried lunch as there is a cooking time of at least 15-20 minutes, and that can sometimes stretch up to half an hour or more.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
