Signature Dishes
This is one of my favourite japanese restaurant when comes to craving for delicious crispy pork cutlets. Here at Tonkichi, the portion served are quite generous and they used very premium quality japanese rice which are really tasty and fragrant. There are also free flow serving of cabbages to go along with your main course. If you are quite a small eater, you may want to share your main course with a friend as you can still share the free flow of cabbage and japanese rice with him or her too.

One of my colleagues happen to have the membership card from this restaurant, so we decided to have our lunch there. The restaurant's environment is very cosy and the service here is also warm and friendly. Instead of the usual main courses which my coleagues have choose for their lunch, I decided to try some of their side dishes as they all looks great in their food menu. One of my favourite will be their potato salad as it is very smooth and moist in texture. Moreover, there are also generous amount of sliced hams, crunchy sliced cucumbers and carrot in it which make it even more fragrant and tastier. The portion is also quite generous and the price is reasonable.

We were wondering around Suntec City on a weekday evening, surprised by how empty most restaurants were. A certain craving for pork led us to Tonkichi, owned and operated by the Pokka group, which also has the Domani and Rive Gauche brand under its fold. And to think I only associated Pokka with their namesake line of drinks!Tonkichi is one of the many restaurants that surround the fountain of wealth at the basement of Suntec City. Occupying a reasonably large space, the restaurant's decor is simple and definitely catered to the masses.My initial plan was to order the Kurobuta Hire Katsu but they were out of it so I had to settle for the Kuro Cheese Katsu, which turned out to be a mistake. Sure, the katsu was nicely breaded and deep fried without coming across as overly oily, but being minced up meant that the texture was left wanting. To me, mincing kurobuta up is akin to mincing wagyu beef up to make patties - a total waste. Not even the very elastic cheese could save this dish.On the contrary, I thought that this "normal" pork (and prawn) dish fared a great deal better than its more illustrious cousin. The pork was tender, juicy and nicely breaded without the oily residue. Personally I preferred the prawns though, which were relatively large and bursting with natural sweetness that there was no need for any tartar sauce to give it taste.I see promise in Tonkichi's food. And at about $50 for 2 pax , it would be a great place to have a nice tonkatsu dinner without bursting your wallet. Service was good and I'll be sure not to order any minced pork tonkatsu or the likes.

Tonkichi Japanese Restaurant for a nice dinner out with my ex classmates. My favourite order is the special crab cake! The batter was totally thoroughly coated and was toasted till very crispy yet and tasty. The middle of the cake is very soft and moist and is literally oozing with its yummy and creamy crab meat!
