Fast food giant Maxim’s has just opened Dondonya, a donburi (Japanese rice bowl) restaurant in Elements (taking over the space where the poorly-received TMSK restaurant used to be). At Dondonya you can get a rice bowl with meat toppings such as Angus beef, chicken and egg, pork cutlet; and seafood items like oyster cutlet and assorted sashimi—all for $70 to $170. Besides using ingredients far better than the usual donburi fast food restaurants, Dondonya uses white rice from Niigata, which is widely regarded as the region producing the highest-quality rice in Japan. The assorted sashimi rice bowl offers a generous portion of fresh fish—in short, a satisfying don. Add on an onsen tamago (slow-cooked “hot spring” egg) and a miso soup for just $20 more. Great new grub before a movie, folks.
