    5.5 miPetticoat Lane, Aldgate

    'Asta' (as I like to simply call it) - I have no idea of the '3' moniker, or indeed where the first…read moretwo went - is as genuine a Japanese canteen as you'll find in London. I was lucky enough to, along with a colleague, be taken here on several occasions for a quick lunch by a client (indicative of how welcoming the Japanese are!) By 'genuine' I mean no dumbed-down menus, no super-slick interiors to detract from potentially average food, and no gimmicks of any kind. The place is staffed and run by Japanese nationals as any self-respecting Japanese restaurant should be - and perhaps more importantly, frequented by them regularly, too. Service is smiling and attentive and no more that it needs to be. The food is inexpensive (~£6-8 for a bento, £7-11 for ramen, udon or donburi) and so tasty. On my most recent trip I had beef ramen with tan tan (sesame paste) soup base, and my brother had salmon teriyaki on brown rice. Both dishes had generous proportions of meat/fish, and the donburi came with a side salad and pickles. The unagi (eel) is also lovely, and the place does an extensive line in pick-your-soup base noodle bowl dishes where you have the option of shoyu, miso, and sesame as mentioned above, among others. I can't speak for the takeaway bento, but they looked pretty solid and of a decent quality. Drinks come in the familiar (Coke etc) and the more, um, 'traditional' - aloe vera juice, Pocari, cold bottled green and black teas and others. This place is rather hidden away on the fringes of the City, behind Aldgate station on the Petticoat Lane side. In many ways it's a great location as it's very much a local haunt, and in others a little frustrating as even if you're working in the City it can be a fair walk to get there and back! My advice would also be to get there early (between midday and half-past) to ensure a seat, as well as before some of the more popular items on the menu disappear. In brief summary, I couldn't really recommend this place enough if you're in the area. You'll get multi-kudos from any friends Nippon friends (or appreciators of their incredible cuisine) and have a lunch to beat the hell out of an uninspired sandwich / soft-drink combo whilst spending a similarly scant amount of your hard-earned cash. As your fellow diners would say: "itedakimas!"

    I wish I could give this place 10 stars because it is simply amazing. For lunch I got a chicken…read moreteriyaki be to box. Their rice is so delicious I could eat it alone without any other dish. The chicken was tender and flavourful and I really liked the fried potato thing that came with the side. Another great thing about Asta is that with bento boxes you can pick a variety of cold side dishes. I recommend the cucumbers and the rice noodles. Will be back!!

    I decided not to book in advance as we were right next door having drinks and there were plenty of…read moretimes available online. We walked in and asked if they had room for 2. The host told me they were all booked up, and gestured to the dining room that they had all booked up. It was half empty so I assumed he was joking, but wanted to appear respectful, in case they had filled up in the 10 minutes it had been since I checked. The conversation then stopped there. Nope. He was serious. Looked online as I was leaving. I could have booked a table for two 10 minutes after I was leaving. They just didn't want us to actually be there. This restaurant is not interested in serving patrons. Don't come here.

    I'm quite excited to find this place. Having lived in New York where sushi was on my doorstep, I…read moremiss it. So even though it hasn't quite reached Penge, I'm glad there's a sushi pace just up the hill! Instead of ordering sushi in and dealing with it after a 20 minute rest in plastic containers, we decided to pay a visit to the restaurant and have it as fresh as possible. The restaurant is divided into two sections, the first is at the front and has very normal tables and chairs. The second part is up a couple of steps and has tables with sunken seats. It takes a moment to work out how to slide in and sit, but once you are in there, it's very comfy. (just don't drink too much and try to get out again!) The service was brilliant. They really cannot do enough to help and are so sweet and nice to chat to. The decor is very slightly cold, and there weren't too many people in there with us, but it was fine. The food was a bit mixed. The prawn tempura was ok, but the vegetable tempura was really really boring. We didn't finish it and I don't think I would order tempura again from them. The miso soup was lovely, really really nice and I savoured every drop. The sushi and sashimi was great - fresh, delicious and quite perfect. I have also tried their Katsu curry (YUM) and their beef noodle ramen - also yum. Very generous with extremely nice, lean beef and lovely crispy greens.
