I have been on hospital attachment for the past few weeks and it's been tough for a rookie like me. Thank goodness it's ending soon! For poor people like me who have to work tomorrow, maybe this can lessen the Monday blues!
Yes! For depressed people working in the Ayer Rajah area, (including dellusional NUS students whose semester is about to start), this is the comfort food YOU are looking for.
Located at Ayer Rajah Food Center, Don Japanese Cuisine (#01-13) sells Donburi of ABOVE restaurant stardards but for a fraction of the price. I particularly like the Tempura Prawn set. The prawns are fresh, seasoned and fried to perfection and does not feel too oily! It comes along with fried shitake mushrooms and a healthy portion of sliced lettuce, all of which sits on a thin piece of egg which lies over the calrose rice. The savoury tempura sauce adds an intense assault on the tastebuds, and the overall feeling can only be described in one word: Oiishi!!! Plus the miso soup, tofu side dish and fruit, it's all going for only $4.50 per set! Truly an gastronomical yet affordable recommendation, courtesy of ToC.
Teriyaki Chicken Don tastes good too! (Actually everything they sell taste good...) This stall only opens Mon to Fri, 10am till 4pm and Sat from 10am to 2pm. Note the working hours! You wouldn't want to cry over the crumbs!
