Horoki.

In Cantonese we have the saying “yow peng, yow hou sik” which basically translates to “cheap and tasty”. Such a statement certainly applies to my absolute favourite ‘cheap-eats’ restaurant in Melbourne Horoki! Like all Melbournian goodies, Horoki is located in a small lane-way in the city. Serving up modern Japanese tapas-style dishes, Horoki is a great place for a quick and easy lunch.
For lunch they offer a great lunch platter for a mere $14 where you can pick 3 dishes from the menu, served with your choice of either ciabatta or rice. Today I had kingfish sashimi,

salmon and spinach croquette…

spicy prawn and avocado sushi…

And on the other side of the table: tatsuta age; crispy marinated chicken, fish and calamari fritto; deep fried king dory and calamari dressed with Japanese breadcrumbs and tartar, Horoki braised hamburg steak; hamburger steak braised in rich tomato sauce and cream served with potatoes and broccoli.

Oh and not to forget, Horoki serve their organic green tea in the cutest tea cups!
