Restaurant: Japanese Canteen, Middlesex St
Time: Friday lunchtime
With: Wist
Stand-out dish: Nothing. I’d have to say the TsingTao.
Notes: Slow-moving queue out of the door; a busy lunchtime venue. Long parallel benches and tables. Draught beers were off. And somehow, they only one cold bottle of beer, as the fridge was broken. Ordered chicken katsu donburi, pork dumplings, chicken chili fried rice. Hectic service – they brought us the wrong food twice. Food was very average – watery dumplings and dry rice.
