Tonkatsu The Sphere

On Wednesday 13.aug.2025, I woke up late at about 10 am, so decided to go to the nasi lemak shop in Nexus bangsar south. Took some time to find a parking space as the upper level parking at Nexus is full so we had to exit the upper level and had to drive to the front to enter Nexus basement car park and found a spot near a dim area that I imagine PH would describe as im in hokkien. 🥶 

It was office lunch hours by then around 12 noon so there were long queues for The nasi lemak shop, hock Kee kopitiam and many popular eateries in nexus so we walked to The Sphere and he chose Tonkatsu by Ma Maison which luckily still has 3 vacant tables available.

*** Tonkatsu by Ma Maison ***

12.45 noon - his order: Negi Miso Hire Set with unlimited refills for rice 🍚, shredded raw cabbage and miso soup 🍲 MYR 38.50++
He chose foc hot genmai drink and white plain rice.
For me, Mille Feuille Katsu set MYR 36++ with unlimited refills for the same 3 items. I chose foc cold genmai drink and multi grain brown rice which is yummy 😋 because it has beans mixed in the rice.
Total MYR 86.40 nett.
We were given a voucher for a free chicken Katsu when we order a Katsu set on a weekend or a public holiday. 

12.45 noon - mille Feuille tonKatsu is multi layered tonkatsu, made by layering thinly sliced Pork before dipping it in bread crumbs and deep frying it. This tonkatsu is very suitable for my weak teeth. 🤤 

He didn't get any refills and he just ate 80% of his rice and soup. I requested for one raw shredded cabbage refill and finished up his white rice and miso soup so I completed my meals for this day at 2 pm and I wasn't hungry at all at midnight so this set meal is very suitable for my omad. 👍 And tasty too.

Morning 45.20
Next morning 44.85
Removed 350g water because completed omad early at 2 pm.
