Tash brought The Android to the sleazy Cuppage Plaza for yakitori. The place was full of Japanese themed “KTV” and “Health Centers” with subtly ecchi names like Adam & Eve and Destiny. But we ain’t talking about sleaze today… we be talking about food.
Once again, The Android finds himself in a claustrophobic restaurant. The crowd last night appeared to be a varied lot. There were Japanese and Caucasian expatriates, grannies with families, as well as yuppie-sons and mama-sans. Service was quite prompt, but they tend to be quite hard-sell when taking your orders. Learn how to say no to some of their dubious recommendations, and you should be fine.
Worthy mentions on their menu include the oyster wrapped in bacon and the pork belly. Jui-cy! What’s more, the chicken hearts and gizzards they serve here are easily better than those served at Shinryoku. Their garlic fried rice and beef tongue however, are only so-so… When it comes to garlic fried rice and beef tongue, The Android still says Nanjya Monjya’s the best. We also ordered this beef stuffed with cheese thingy. The Android didn’t really like it coz his piece was brutally charred. Yet, it is safe to assume that Curly will be absolutely mesmerized by the amount of cheese they have stuffed in there.
Overall, a decent place to dine. Oh… by decent, The Android refers only to within the confines of the restaurant.
