Review: WIP on the Park
April 28th, 2025
Near or far, here’s some comfort food to help us on difficult days.
A five-minute drive from our Sri Petaling home, Ton Kichi whips up warm bowls of ramen. This shoyu broth version with breaded pork, corn and egg soothes the soul.
We also enjoy the tonkotsu pork bone rendition with soft-braised pork. Sure, it’s not as richly milky or deeply flavorsome as the recipes of Hokkaido Santouka, Gokuraku and Marutama, but for only around RM20, it’s fully fulfilling.
The perfect tonkatsu pork cutlet, crisply fried without excess oil and served with grind-it-yourself sesame seeds. A bowl of Japanese curry proved a divine dip.
Hot sake at RM15 per carafe and cold green tea.
