Katsu House - A small, simple casual dining place that offers a variety of Japanese cuisine with vegan and keto options. Yup! You read it right, K-E-T-O and V-E-G-A-N. ;)
Last 26th of May, I got the chance to indulge in some of Katsu House dishes and I must say they not only serves some of my favorites but their price is definitely affordable too!
Vegan Tantanmen - 199PHP
Red Peppers, Red Miso Broth, Tamago (optional), Minced Shiitake, Tofu and Red Bell Peppers. It's definitely spicy but just the way I like it! At first, I wasn't aware that this was a Vegan Tantanmen as it doesn't taste one. I'm really not a fan of vegetables, but I can say this one is my top favorite.
Teriyaki Maki - 180PHP
Chicken/Shiitake Teriyaki, Cabbage, Cucumber, Caramelized Onions, Toasted Sesame Seeds, Teriyaki Sauce, Wasabi Mayo, Torched. The taste of Teriyaki mixed with Caramelized Onions is just perfect for me.
Shiitake Kimchi Gyoza - 125HP for 4 pieces / 250PHP for 12 pieces
You all know that I am a big fan of Korean food so I really enjoyed this Kimchi Gyoza!
Shiitake Gyoza / 125php for 4 pieces and 250php for 12 pieces \
Japanese food wouldn't be complete without shiitake mushroom. If I'm not mistaken, this is part of the vegan menu.
Spicy Shiitake Katsu Maki - 180PHP
It was indeed spicy, but it was definitely tolerable! Red Pepper Paster, Shiitake Katsu, Lettuce, Cabbage, Nori Togarashi coating with Spicy Mayo.
Taco Nori Trio - 175PHP
Deep fried Katsu Nori w/ 3 kinds of fillings
Spicy Shiitake Teriyaki, Tofu Summer Salad and Spicy Tofu
Gyu-K Curry Special - 265PHP
Who's a big fan of Curry like me? Yay for this Wagyu Katsu served with Steamed Rice topped with Japanese Curry!
Vegan Katsu Special Don - 199PHP
Shiitake, Eggplant, Sweet potato and Tofu Nori Katsu. Yum? Yes! 100%!
Surf and Chips - 250PHP
Ebi Katsu, Tako Katsu, Kani Katsu in one plate
Choice of Chips: J. Fries, T. Fries, Onion Rings, Tofu Nori Bites,
Choice of Dip for Katsu: Katsu, Teriyaki, Honey Mustard, Garlic Cream, Spicy Mayo, Wasabi Mayo and Coleslaw and Benishoga on the side
Kushikatsus
A Japanese dish of deep-fried skewered meat and vegetables
Spam nori kushikatsu - 60PHP
Kani kushikatsu - 40PHP
Shiitake kushikatsu - 75PHP
Kani Salad - 139php
Oh, nothing special. We all know that Kani Salad will always be present on any Japanese restaurant. Btw, this is the only "salad" I would always enjoy eating!
Our lunch feast didn't end there. As we were served some desserts to try:
Keto Vegan Cocoaberry - 100PHP
Keto Dark Choco - 100PHP
I won't lie as I didn't really enjoy the keto desserts that was served as I don't like dark/bitter chocolates. But I can recommend it for those who's a vegan and under keto diet. :)
When I saw the #FMU invite, I immediately said yes, as 1. The location is just a ride away from my place and 2. I was craving for some maki (HEHE). But I was surprised that they also have vegan and keto options and I didn't know what to expect from there (because hello, I don't like/I don't really eat vegetables) but nope, everything was worth trying as it wasn't bad at all. I remembered the owner telling us that their restaurant is definitely a place for those who's craving for Japanese food but a vegan or under keto diet and I couldn't agree more. The place is also pet-friendly and you can also request some meals to be cooked for your fur babies. :)
