Affordable donburis & makis can be found at Donya Japanese Cuisine. With their first shop at Toa Payoh Lorong 1, they have attracted quite a no. of good reviews on the dons and makis.
They opened their 2nd branch at Bugis 269, a coffeeshop behind Bugis Plus. Business seems quieter here as compared to the one in Toa Payoh.
We went for their recommended dons and maki as follow:
1. Chicken katsu don ($5.80) - though the bowl look small, it was filled with fragrant japanese short rice topped with juicy katsu and eggs and onions. It would be better if there was more gravy with the rice. A little dry towards the end when the top portion of the don was eaten. Rating: 3.8/5
2. Chicken mentai katsu don ($6.80) - the katsu was much drier as compared to the above but would give thumbs up for their mentaiko mayo. Tasted very good and not salty. Rating: 3.6/5
3. Mentai maki ($5.80) - we love this dish best. Fresh salmon slices on top of rice roll wrapped with cucumber. The mentaiko mayo was nicely flamed as well. Rating: 4/5
For its price, its really pocket friendly and affordable to many. Its definitely one of the choices to eat when we are nearby Bugis Plus the next time.
