見到有個朋友放左大戶屋個豬肉套餐相落面書度勁吸引... 唔得我都要黎食下.等到套餐來了, 嘩! 個盤真係好大, 上面有主菜, 飯, 薯泥, 雜菜沙律, 醬菜, 茶碗蒸, 麵豉湯, 茶.
主菜係烤豬肉, 外表看來同燒味店的燒肉差不多, 食落去係比較多汁同埋肉比較嫩, 油脂豐富甘甜, 皮也鹹脆香.
飯做得很不錯, 甘甜的很香. 薯泥甜甜地很好食, 雜菜沙律新鮮爽口, 醬菜酸酸的很開胃, 茶碗蒸鮮甜湯美味.
服務方面, 員工很快手快腳醒目, 唔錯. 座位超闊, 每個檯的距離都很遠, 很有自己的空間. 店面也非常乾淨.

這日，兩個同事食中午飯，近年晚大家也想吃好一點的，行到來 time square，轉過身我就想起大戶屋，老早就知道這是一家不錯的日本餐廳，我們就不聞不問，直接上來入座。

食好一點的日本菜，總要付上少少 premium 的，不過說起來，不超過百五元的工作日日本菜午餐仍然是可以令人接受的。雖感覺過了我們是日的預算，但能換來美味的一個午餐，也算是不錯。

大戶屋，說的是家庭料理，我們二人一打開中午的定食 menu，已感覺到其不同之處。菜式是比較清淡的，沒有一般街外食的那麼多醬多油，端出來的食物就是非常之清新。

炭烤雞肉沙拉定食，就盡量地顯出了西日的風格，西式的醋油沙律，但醋就用上了日本的國產醋，酸度比較重，是一個養胃開胃的一個好食品。而炭烤雞肉只淋上薄薄的照燒汁，而且可以真真正正的食到雞味，完全沒有被濃汁取替味道，油不多，感覺健康。

炭烤鹽麴五花肉定食，因為用上了五花腩肉，給予大家的感覺就是中華風味。也是以烤的形式製作，出來的肉，也是色淡肉味濃，也是充滿了香口的豚肉味，配上了藉蓉及蔬菜，非常是清的一個日式味道。

貴，但這絕對是我的一個日食新感受，大戶屋的日式家庭菜，原來是可以這麼清的。

一向愛食日本菜的我, 大戶屋當然也是常客.
但...以前食大戶屋, 總覺得有日本地道風味, 味道好, 價不高. 所以我也常幫襯.
但近排, 不知是為何, 覺得食物的水準下降了....可惜可惜.

今次去, 我們點了以前我最愛的冷麵配炸豬排飯.
點知, 冷麵味道, 質感, 都好似唔好以前. (但我又講唔出點解), 這是我黎大戶屋的主要原因啊....
而銅鑼灣這間炸豬排飯, 也不似太古那間的醬汁是任落的....可能因為醬汁太少的關係吧. 感覺也好似無咁好味.

我的朋友是第一次去. 是我推介黎的....
佢叫了個北海道牛奶粥, 原本諗住試新野, 味道一般, 但仲貴過我個定食, 唔係好抵囉.
而佢叫了咖啡, 跟黎的奶是椰奶...但佢唔飲椰奶的, 所以佢只有飲齋啡...
搞到的真係唔好意思, 推介佢黎食.....

希望日後能改善啦, 因為佢曾經是我喜愛的餐廳之一啊...

Ootoya is right in the middle of busy Time's Square in Causeway Bay and occupies the entire 3rd floor of this building. It a nice casual dining restaurant and the relative low prices attract a younger but well dressed set of customers.

The menu is quite large and something for everyone. Most of the mains are presented as a 'set' inclusive of several side dishes (egg custard, seaweed salad, miso soup).

First up were a series of classic chicken skewers done yakitori style along with some grilled vegetables. These were nicely presented and quite tasty. Some were simply salted and others with a special sauce.

We ordered a simple salamon sushi & cooked platter and again while well presented missed the mark. The fish pieces were terribly thin and there was simply too much rice. One of the pieces was a mayo/pesto which while novel.

Next were cold soba noodles with a warm tea to be poured over the top. It a nice presentation but frankly, they lacked much taste to them.

A set of fried terriyaki chicken in a bowl was ordered and this was excellent. The chicken was hot n' crispy and full of flavor and the terriyaki sauce was just right. The set included some add'l vegatables.

Finally, some grilled mackerel, this was sufficiently moist and a touch oily (as expected) and a little fishy (expected). A nice presentation.

Summary
The restaurant was quite busy but we still found the service quite accomodating.

While none of the dishes were in the 'wow' catagory, they weren't bad and were all nicely presented.

It's decent food in a nice environment!

Our gang of three hit Ootoya today for lunch.
This is a Japanese family restaurant which we often go when we can't think of anywhere else to go. The food has always been up to standard for the price.
We ordered spinach salad with small fish, grilled fish, cold noodle with tempura, salmon sashimi over rice and grilled pork lunch sets.
Spinach salad came with dried bonito fish flakes, very small portion and bonito fish tasted quite artificial.
Next came the cold noodle with tempura. Rather than serving the cold noodle on wooden net, it came in a red, wooden bowl that looked very beat up- probably rejects from their Japan HQ. We asked for sauce for the tempura, to our surprise the waiter replied "IT WILL COST YOU $10 EXTRA". Hey..$10 is not a big deal for anyone but the concept of milking your customer for extra $10 was just downright- inhospitable.
The grilled pork lunch was OK and salmon sashimi don was below standard with small slices of salmon and the rice so wet that should have been called "Salmon over congee".
The bill came to over $500..oh sorry $500 plus $10.

星期六冇BOOK位, 成銅鑼灣食日本野都要等, 搵到黎呢度唔洗, 就入黎

今日行左成日山, 好好好好好唔想食野, 只係想食冷麵, 但竟然冇晒手打冷麵

得返個普通機打冷麵餐, 之前食過, 冇咩特別, 但既然冇, 就食佢啦, 呢個餐冇咩好, 係特別多囉

一大碟麵再加多一碗炸雞扒飯, 夠飽程度達1000分我2個朋友食魚生飯, 不過我個人覺得超唔抵, 得少少係生野, 仲要係冇貴野O係裡面, 收成165蚊.

好貴, 有個配菜菠菜, 蒸蛋, 湯, 叮點特別都冇, 好呃$ !如果唔係度度冇位, 我真係唔會黎, 因為真係唔抵食, 同埋好普通!,

可以讚就係, 成日唔爆場, 易搵位, 坐得都舒服, 都係O個句, 呢個地段, 係咁.

大堂的昆蟲及園野裝飾,配上WARM WARM的燈光,有D想訓覺的感覺同行友人的蝦鍋飯(我唔記得全名)
佢同我投訴佢的飯,同面豉湯D配菜一樣,食黎食去都係個D味........
我試左一啖,我覺得係滑蛋蝦仁飯.入面連皮的雞肉肥滋滋有D嘔心
蛋過老,平時中意茶碗蒸的我,都要免為其難咁食哂佢想食燒魚就會到大戶屋
因為可以添飯,唔洗等好耐,
質素有保證
今次亦唔例外
燒魚的魚油的甘香,表面的香脆,魚肉的鮮甜.
配上蘿蔔茸會帶出另一種的甜味.
當口中充滿油香時,配上一口飽滿的白飯.就會好似飯同魚油跳緊舞咁~

又可吃一口醃瓜,REFRESH一下,
醋味又可解膩,又可帶出魚的鮮味.

一條燒魚,一個定食已經可以令我浸醉在內,不受外界所影響.

大戶屋既人氣從佢係一個平日既夜晚都要排30分鐘便已知道位係坐得幾舒服，但位同位之間隔到好近，所以基本上係講啲咩野隔離都聽到

燒露筍豬肉卷：薄薄既豬肉包住小舊露筍，食落有點清新既感覺，亦唔會太油膩，再為前菜唔錯既選擇漢堡鐵板定食：漢堡好厚身，食落非常有口感，亦有肉既香味，拎黎餸飯好match吉列雞扒飯x湯烏冬：個炸雞扒整得好好，外皮香脆之餘，入面既雞肉唔會乾，連平時會點炸豬扒，但唔會點炸雞扒既我都覺得好食；湯鳥冬屬不過不失平均消費：$120

大戶屋初到港時曾大受歡迎,午及晚飯時段門外也大排長龍.熱潮過後的今天午,市來到兩人要找個坐位已不是難事.
迷你滑蛋豬扒飯配冷蕎麥麵定食:迷你滑蛋豬扒飯----賣相不對辦!怎看這也是炒得過熟的蛋而不是滑蛋.吃下去果然是一點也不滑,豬扒厚身但肉質不鬆軟.完全軟淋的外皮更是用筷子一夾已脫落.雖說是迷你但其實也是足一碗飯的份量.麵身硬度適中沒有黏結成一團的情況出現.而且冰水過得足麵條是冰凍涼快的.鰹魚汁味道不夠濃及份量偏少了一點.冷蕎麥麵----單是麵條及蘸汁的溫度已絕對比同區的某家自稱蕎麥麵專門店做得出色!汁煮雞扒定食----試了一點友人的雞扒,肉質尚可但味道淡得如病人的走鹽膳食......基本上是全無調味!
只吃蕎麥麵是不錯但其它認真一般,以這價錢在這區吃得飽一飽已算合理,如閣下對味道沒甚要求的話.

今天和家人一起來大戶屋吃日本料理。
平時覺得這家店的食物應該會很貴。
但上來后發現價錢還可以。
因爲這裡有些套餐只要60幾就有飯和麵了。
雖然那些套餐很值得，但我會吃不下，所以選擇了吃滑蛋吉列炸豬排便當。我平時不會時常去吃油炸的東西
但唯一抗拒不了的就是豬排飯。
吃這盒飯的分量剛好，但我認爲肥肉太多，會讓我吃膩。
喜歡吃豬排飯的人可以不妨試試。這份三文魚便當便是我姐叫的
她說沙拉醬令這盒飯會吃膩
但我試了一口，認爲沙拉醬的分量剛好不會影響到三文魚的味道。
是個不錯的選擇。晚餐不得缺少的是蔬菜阿!!!
因此我們就叫了一份沙拉一起分享!!
