Tonkatsu by Ma Maison was established in I-Setan, 1 Utama since 2013 and has been frequented by many for lunch and dinner. This fine establishment sits right at the back on the 2nd floor in I-Setan. The ambiance of this restaurant has a bit more of an intimate feel, with its dark blue-grey walls and low-ish lighting. Their friendly staffs are always at the ready to serve and tuck you in before your meal arrives.
As you are flipping through their menu, you will notice that their dishes do not vary much from one another, being that most are pictures of their breaded deep fried pork cutlets. However, don't let that fool you as the prices may vary due to its different cuts and sizes.
Depending on what you prefer, once ordered, you will be served with an appetizer, preserved radish. You can eat it as it is, or, as recommended, you can add tamarin to the radish, to whet one's appetite for what is installed.
Once you are done experimenting with the appetizer, before you know it,
the main course would have arrived!!! Every main course will be served with an unlimited helping of rice, thinly julienne cabbage and
miso soup. No, they can't serve unlimited pork, we've asked them ;).
Multi Grain Rice
We usually would opt for the healthier choice of multi grain rice, instead of white rice, but its up to you.
Miso soup with pork
Their miso soup would be served covered and very hot, so be careful when taking the first sip. Also, spoons will only be provided if you ask for it. Its customary for the Japanese to drink soup from the bowl. Everyone does it, so don't be shy... Try it... But again I caution, first sip, HOT!!
Their pork will be served hot, and yes, its as crunchy as it looks. If you ordered the leaner cut, for example the loin, the meat will not be as moist as say, if you ordered the fillet cut, but fret not, it won't be to the extent of dry, chewy pork.
The cabbage served as mentioned, is refillable. You can eat it fresh, or you can add in the sesame seed dressing which is on your table to go with your cabbage. As you can see, keeping to the "glut" name of our blog, both of us finished half the bottle of the dressing on 3 helpings of cabbage ;)
Dessert too is served, this mildly flavoured herbal jelly is just the right ending to a very satisfying meal.
