After a long deliberation, I finally decided on the Chirashi Sushi & Wakame Soba Set, or the Vinegared Rice topped with Fresh Raw Seafood and Thin Egg Slices, along with a bowl of Buckwheat Noodles Soup garnished with Seaweed.
Although the Soba was extraordinary lacklustre – as it tasted like any other instant noodles, but with a softer texture, the Chirashi was up to scratch. Not only was the presentation of the dish enthralling, the ingredients were fresh.
It was especially pure pleasure for the Large Reddish Salmon Roe to go with the rice – each bite produces an amazing explosion of saltiness (due to a method handed down from the Taisho Period (1912-1926) of using salt to preserve the salmon roe) – simply bringing me back to memories lane of my last Chirashi Bowl in David Jones Basement, Perth.

Waraku Japanese casual pasta & cafe restaurant at Central. First impression the restaurant was quite nicely decorated, the staff was enthu, mayb too-enthu for my delight. They will say welcome loudly to everyone who came. And sometimes out of nothing they will shout some jap greetings. I mean it is good to be polite, but isn’t this a little over? Besides, it is all right to say greetings in jap but at least yr jap have to sound nice? Some waitress jap does not sound too good to the ear. Think the management should ask diners comments on this
Donald had the Kaminabe Wazen ($19.80), kaminabe sounds like some foul word? haha. Anyway, it has sliced beef & vegetables cook with soup in paper pot, fresh salmon sashimi, and deepfried assortment of vege and prawn, rice The sliced beef and vege in spicy soup, the soup is refreshing to drink, donald (beef lover) say the beef is very nice, so it must be nice. Quite special to put it in paper pot.
The sliced beef and vege in spicy soup, the soup is refreshing to drink, don(beef lover) say the beef is very nice, so it must be nice. Quite special to put it in paper pot. Fried Prawn and vege, looks and taste nice. Onli one miserable prawn, should have give more. I am not really a sashimi eater so cannot judge whether fresh or not. Overall this dish i would give it 4 out of 5
I had the TonkatsuWazen ($15.50) which is pork cutlet set meal i guess. It has pork cutlet (obviously), salad, rice, pickles seaweed with soup noodles. The main character, pork cutlet, cripsy is the word to describe. At some places after eating pork cutlet you will feel the after-effect of being thirsty and stuff like that, but this one wont. The cutlet is also fried jus nice, not too bland and not too salty. Plus my fav healthy servings of vege to go along with it. The seaweed with soup noodles, one big bowl of it, two person to finish it, Noodles taste all right. Tonkatsu set (pork cutlet) gets 3.5 out of 5 because i prefer donald set. As simple as that
Overall the whole restaurant feel, donald say is 3.5, but i think i would give it 4 out of 5, pretty decent price and the food is not too bad, jus that i think the management should improve on the restaurant service, too much shouting around is not music to my ears while i am having my dinner. I had a coupon from them after paying the bill, its gives quite a good discount, BUT, the big but, it is onli limited to 1 coupon per table per bill basis. That means i can use coupon but my friend cant?

This is the latest branch of the well established brand "Waraku". I must say, out of the 3 branches (East Coast, Marina Square and The Central), this is to me the better branch out of the others. Service-wise, all of the branches have met the policies they set for themselves, but i strongly feel that for food quality, this branch is the best! One example is the potato mentai i tried at this branch, the taste is just nice and potato is not overwhelming till i can't taste the cheese, like what i experienced at other branch. Maybe also because it being the newest branch, the feeling it gives me is more fresh and i'd love to go there again. But be sure to make a reservation before you head there, as they are always full house! Being on the waiting list while looking at others savour the good food is torturing! My favourite would be the Gyu Yanagawa Wazen! Go give it a try! Its definitely value for money!
