Damansara Uptown’s new Yogoyi Hikiniku brings a pork-free PJ perspective to the Tokyo-inspired hikiniku to kome (minced meat and rice) movement that’s creeping through the Klang Valley.
House-ground, binchotan charcoal-grilled Australian beef hambagu patties crown a comforting choice of Japanese koshihikari short-grain rice or ramen noodles handmade with flour from Kagawa prefecture, topped with a raw egg, fried egg or onsen tamago.
Bowls come in teishoku sets with soup, vegetables and pickles, starting at RM23.80 for a single-patty serving. Rice and noodles are refillable, while the patties can be enhanced with yuzu kosho, mentaiko, black pepper or curry sauce.
Fresh and hot, these 90-gram patties are the star of the show at this friendly space - thick, tender and textured with lightly seasoned flavours. Complete your beefy meal with a steak skewer, succulent and savoury.
