affordable mentai katsu at bras bassah 😍✨
Decided to visit Haru Haru after seeing a media feature on 8 days! We tried their most popular item: Mentai Pork Katsu Don ($9.90)
👍 The Good Points
Mentaiko Sauce: The sauce is creamy, savory, and umami-rich, which is given generously. The pork is thick with a crispy exterior. Portions are considered hearty and generous. However, some cuts of the katsu were a bit hard to chew and overtime rhe mentaiko sauce grew heavy on me. But it was paired with pickled daikon which helped to cleanse my Palate.
✨theres also a 20% off for students who flash their passes.

If you’re a fan of Japanese comfort food and happen to be around Bras Basah, Haru Haru is a must-visit for mentai katsu lovers. Beyond the pork katsu don, their menu also features salmon katsu don and chicken katsu curry, providing a variety that caters to different tastes. What I appreciate is how the mentaiko sauce is not just liberally applied but also well-balanced, offering a creamy yet umami-rich flavor that elevates the crispy fried pork. One thing to note is that some cuts of the katsu can be a bit tougher, so I recommend pairing your dish with their pickled daikon to cleanse your palate. The hearty servings are satisfying and definitely value for money, especially with the student 20% discount if you flash your student pass. For those unfamiliar, Bras Basah Food Court is centrally located and easy to access, making it a convenient spot for lunch or dinner. The affordable pricing combined with flavorful dishes makes it a favorite among local foodies. Plus, the menu options like pork katsu curry and salmon katsu add variety if you want to try something different on your next visit. Overall, my experience with Haru Haru’s mentai katsu was positive and I’d recommend it for anyone craving Japanese food that’s tasty, affordable, and delivers on quality. It’s perfect for casual meals without breaking the bank.
