Tucked away in the bustling streets of Wan Chai, Cat Eye presents itself as a haven for Japanese curry enthusiasts. Stepping inside, the atmosphere is casual and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal. I was drawn to the "Creamy Chicken and Beef Stew with Omurice" (忌廉雞肉/燴牛肉汁蛋包飯), a dish that promised a symphony of textures and flavors.The star of the show was undoubtedly the creamy chicken and beef stew.

The star of the show was undoubtedly the creamy chicken and beef stew. The sauce boasted a rich, savory depth, perfectly balancing the sweetness of the cream with the umami notes of the meat. Each spoonful was a delightful journey for the taste buds. The omurice itself was a masterpiece – fluffy eggs enveloping perfectly cooked rice, creating a comforting and satisfying base for the flavorful stew.
However, the experience wasn't without its flaws. The beef, while flavorful, was slightly rough around the edges. A touch more tenderness would have elevated the dish to new heights. Additionally, while the portion size was adequate, the balance between meat and rice felt a bit skewed. As a self-proclaimed meat lover, I couldn't help but yearn for a more generous serving of beef and chicken to fully complement the exquisite sauce and omurice.
Despite these minor hiccups, Cat Eye delivers a satisfying Japanese curry experience at a reasonable price point for the Wan Chai district. If you're in the area and craving a comforting and flavorful curry adventure, Cat Eye is worth considering. Just be aware of the potential for a slight meat-to-rice imbalance and a touch of toughness in the beef.
