A collection of Japanese Main Dishes: Bento Box, Ebi Tempura and Katsudon

1. Bento Box

Bento Box is for you if you want a wholesome meal packed with the proper nutrients for a balanced diet.

You can choose one main dish – Pork or Chicken Teriyaki, Karaage, Ebi Tempura, or Shoogayaki plus 2 pcs Gyoza, rice, mixed vegetable, Miso Soup, and iced tea.

Bento Box comes in a nice and pretty box with a compartment that houses the food separately. So, your take-out is fuss-free.

2. Katsudon

One of the rice meal varieties, Katsudon, is a simmered pork katsu with spring onions and egg served with rice. The serving is generous, which is perfect for sharing. If you prefer to eat alone, you can reserve the remaining portion for your next meal.

3. Ebi Tempura

Crispy and golden brown, Ibe Tempura is Shrimp or Prawn Tempura. If your taste bud prefers simple and not-so-rich flavor, you will surely love this prawn dish’s light flavor and crunchiness.

4. Tonkotsu Ramen

Izumi has the best Ramen in town. The soup is creamy and rich, and the noodles are too tender, which blended well with the broth.

The ultimate appetizer before diving into the main course, there are other Ramen flavors you can order, such as Miso Ramen, Miso Ramen, or Shoyo Ramen, which are great additions to your meal.

The best Japanese appetizers: Califorania Maki, Kani Salad and Gyoza

5. Appetizers

You can never go wrong with Gyoza, California Maki, and Kani Salad for appetizers.

Their gyozas or fried dumplings are huge. It is steamed and fried afterward. The gyozas can be eaten as a main course or as an appetizer. As for me, I prefer to eat my Gyoza with Ramen or rice, which is a meal in itself.

Aside from Ramen, you should never leave Izumi without tasting their California Maki. This Japanese roll has Kani sushi, slices of ripe mango mixed with sticky rice; others called it sushi rice, thinly sliced cucumber, and wrapped in nori seaweeds and ebiko.

When you want a complete meal minus the extra food utensils, this is the best to grab at Izumi. The Kani sushi is so tender. The serving comes with wasabi and a slice of lemon so that you can adjust the taste of your maki according to your preference.

If you love California Maki, you will love Kani Salad, too. It is made of the same Kani sushi found in maki but shredded. The healthy dish has thinly-cut slices of carrot, lettuce, cucumber, and mayo. The mayo dressing makes it more flavorful.
