This spot is a hit with Phrom Phong’s Japanese expat crowd, its mix of wooden tables and sunken horigotatsu seating packed full even on weeknights. One taste of the sinful kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers) and it’s easy to see why. Highlights include the fatty pork (B28), oozing mozzarella (B38) and crunchy lotus root (B28)—the perfect accompaniments to a mug of icy Asahi (B68). If you don’t get caught up ordering seconds (and thirds) of those, they also serve a never-ending array of gyoza (B88), fried chicken (B148), salmon sashimi (B138), tuna sushi (B38/pc), yakisoba (B148) and more.
