In our everlasting seek for hole-in-the-wall restos with out of doors seating we
uncover that Japanese sweetie store Mogu Mogu on George Avenue has a donburi
(stuff on rice) menu. Comfortable comfortable!
There is a fixed trickle of shoppers making a beeline for Mogu Mogu, people
who appear to know what they’re after: superb sugary obanyaki, cream-filled
pancakes, and snacketty takoyaki.
We have walked previous Mogu Mogu a zillion instances and by no means seen anyone hooking
into donburi. So our expectations are low, however being the culinary
daredevils we’re, we give the donburi a crack. Dwelling on the sting,
child! However we’re probably not taking a threat as a result of the parents working the
present are from Japan, a rustic the place even 7-Eleven sandwiches are issues of
marvel.
Unagi don – $14.00. We love the best way Japan does eel in just a little candy
bbq-ish sauce, and that is spot on. Our fave dish right here.
Gydon – $13.50. Slithers of stewed beef on rice with ginger and grated
cabbage. All the time love us a gyudon.
Shoga butadon ontama – $16.20. Stewed finely slice pork with tremendous mushy
googie egg, ginger and grated cabbage on rice.
We attempt to keep away from sugary treats for well being causes however we do should take some
fructose for the group from time to time, similar to this obanyaki ($3.20).
It is a stupendous little plain cakey with a crisper outer and moist internal
bits, with just a little matcha (or chocolate, custard or crimson bean). A beautiful
little sugar hit.
