Porco L'amour (Porcine Love)

why is pork romantic?!

What can I say? Despite "grazing" earlier in the day, we needed more food. (This substantiates my theory that, the more food one eats, the more one's stomach capacity expands.) So there we were at Takashimaya Food Hall, probably pms-sing. The call of deepfried pork proved too much to resist...

the regular version

At $12, the set comes with rice, pickles and miso soup. The pork was reasonably juicy and tender. The crust was light enough and crunchy. It wasn't the best katsu don we've ever eaten, not something that, say, we would go out of our way to eat, but it was genuinely good enough for a quick meal option. As HM would say, at least it wasn't a waste of calories which is more than can be said of some of the cafes in Ngee Ann City.
