I was watching a tv show last week that introduced this restaurant, so I took note of it. My cousin works in Wan Chai, so I asked her to join me today. I got there at about 1225, and there was already a queue. Since I was still waiting for my cousin to arrive, I couldn't go in yet, which was very reasonable.

Since I was still waiting for my cousin to arrive, I couldn't go in yet, which was very reasonable. The staff gave me 2 order sheets because it was one of those circle your order type of restaurant. The paper was in Chinese only, but there was an English menu on the wall.

While waiting for my cousin, the staff approached me and asked me if I would be ordering burgers, and if I were, he'd save some for me because they only do 30 per day. Both my cousin and I wanted the burger, and we so luckily got burger number 28 and 29!

I thought it was a very nice gesture of the restaurant to save orders for people since it was my problem that my party wasn't with me. It was only about 1235-40 when the last burger was sold out, so you really have to go early if you want to try it.

The interior of the restaurant was very Japanese looking. Small, but cozy. We sat at the table facing the window, which meant the queue.

All those hungry looks we got was hilarious. It was even more awkward that we were eating the burgers that they could no longer get.

The food came within a few minutes!

I must say, the staff were all very poilte and pleasant.

Here is what we consumed:

Salad with Sesame Dressing

1. Salad with Sesame Dressing ($20) Lots of restaurants use that particular Japanese brand of sesame dressing available at supermarkets, but not this place!

I'm sure they make their own, because of the aroma and taste! You could really taste the toasted sesame. My gosh, it was so good! The fresh salad only made it better. This was definitely unexpected.

Burger with Cream Sauce and Omelet Rice

2. Burger with Cream Sauce and Omelet Rice ($93) What a beautiful sight this dish was! You knew the golden scrambled eggs in the middle would be delicious just by looking at them, and the truth was the eggs were so light and creamy that each bite was effortless. The sauce on the right was a very concentrated beef sauce that screamed beef! According to them, it is simmered for 3 days to reach such richness. In my opinion, this was the best sauce.

The burger was a thick piece of meat with vegetables mixed in. What a nice way to consume more vegetables.

The burger had a very soft texture, but didn't taste fatty. My first thought was milk was probably added to the meat mixture for such texture. I wasn't able to taste much spices in the burger, not that I needed to because the taste of beef was already very enjoyable. The white sauce on the left was a chicken cream sauce that was made with Japanese 4.3 Milk and cream. Cream sauces are either very heavy or tasteless, but this was the opposite of both! Not only was it light, it was also very flavourful. It went well with the omelet rice.

Burger with Tomato Sauce and Omelet Rice

3. Burger with Tomato Sauce and Omlete Rice ($93) The only difference between this dish and the dish above is the one sauce. Instead of the cream sauce, my cousin chose the tomato sauce with beef short ribs. This was an amazing sauce. The tomato sauce is simmered for 8 hours with onions and carrots. No wonder it was so rich because it absorbed the best of all the ingreidents. The beef was tender, but the star was still the rich tomato sauce.
