Unlike your typical washoku (traditional-style Japanese food) restaurant, Ma Maison is a yōshoku (Western-influenced Japanese food) restaurant. There was always a queue everytime I visit the place. That day, I went at 7.30pm but the queue was already snaking out of the restaurant. Usually the counter seats are free, if you would rather have your meal faster that's your seat of choice.The interior of the restaurant is dim (or romantic). The interior design looks like a cottage somewhere in Europe

We ordered quite a lot of food. I settled for omurice with ketchup.
The appetizers came earlier and we were given cold plates for it. That was really thoughtful.My omurice also came early. It was fantastic. The egg was not as runny as I hoped it would be but the ketchup and the rice mixed really well. The ketchup doesn't clash with the rice but gives it a yummy sourish taste.
My friend's tonkatsu was fried perfectly as well. The sauce that comes along gives it an interesting sweet and sour taste.
We brought along a cake to celebrate a birthday. Although most places have a "No Outside Food" rule, Ma Maison wasn't strict with our cake. The staff kept asking us if we want to keep our cake in the fridge. At first, we said it was ok to leave it outiside. But after the third time, we let them keep the cake cool. Later, they took it out and handed us plates.
Service is OK but we had to wave down the staff most of the time. It would have been better if our water were refilled every time our glass is empty.
