Review: Fat Cow

Every now and then, my hub would have a crazy suggestion for lunch. Although a SAHM, I'm pretty lazy to cook lunch as my maid cooks lunch for my girl, there would be always leftovers in the fridge for my maid and my brekkie is usually rather filling so I can survive till tea break. So when a suggestion for lunch comes along, I would initially be reluctant but would succumb.

Today's lunch is a restaurant specializing in all things beef called Fat Cow. Apparently they have the wagyu don that yoyogi does very well which is why my hub wanna go. We packed up our girl's lunch and went there with our helper. 

And we were not disappointed.

Set lunches are pricey with at least $30+ or $40+ for beef dishes. 
Hub was looking for more than just sets so ordered ala carte of a tai carpaccio with black truffle. That was really good as the truffle added depth to the light tai.
We ordered the fat cow donburi set ($38) and the fat foa gura don ($42) to share.

The fat cow donburi's wagyu is slightly seared and topped with an onsen egg. Generous in portion, this beats yoyogi's price point but my complain is that it lacked a little saltiness flavor. There should have been more sauce to cover the rice, and the sauce more salty. 

The fat foa gura don was the winner as the flavor of the don was enhanced by the sweet-salty-buttery taste of stir fried mushrooms. Not to mention that the chunks of foie gras were aplenty. Generous is an understatement. 


If you are looking to impress with a subtle yet classy business lunch, this place does it well. Just be prepared to pay for the quality.
