Konomi Zen : Hawker Style Japanese Fare

They moved from Amoy Street Food Centre to the current location in 2012 and is still serving affordable Japanese fare in hawker style starting from $3.00 to $6.00. This is just those kind of places that you will go for something simple yet satisfying. The service is warm, the chef and his assistant have the habit of addressing their customers as 'brother' and 'sister'. And, they are listed in the Makansutra 2017 as one of the must-try stalls. 

Amongst the items on their menu, the most popular has to be the Chicken Katsu Don at $3.50, it is served with a bowl of miso soup. The portion is good for its price, it consists a portion of plain rice with a chicken cutlet that is nicely chopped into pieces together with beaten egg, onion then topped with seaweed strips. 



The other popular item is their Salmon Bento Set at $6.00. It is only prepared upon order. It consists of quite a big piece of grilled salmon, shredded cabbage, tempura sweet potato and a portion of rice, together with a bowl of miso soup.


It has stated on their signboard that their food is of 'Restaurant Standard' at 'Hawker Price', even so, i think it is rather unfair to actually do a comparison in terms of portion and taste. As their prices are much lower, they will have a tighter budget to work around.
