Kokoro Bento - Brisbane

I tried veg tempura and terriyaki chicken roll today, i really really like it, best sushi in south Brisbane,. friendly staff and tasty food, would recommend friends

Hidden in between high rises, this place is like a little oasis in the middle of an otherwise grey area of South Brisbane. I have lunch here regularly for two reasons; the service is fast and the food is super tasty. I don't want to tell you anything more about it because then you'll want to try it, and then I'll have to wait longer at lunch for my food there because EVERYONE will want it. Stay away, it's mine.

In the middle of the plain, boring part of South Brisbane is SW1 and in the middle of that is a luscious green leafy area that houses Kokoro Bento. It is an lovely environment. The cooked tuna in the sushi was a strange orange colour but apart from that it was all good. I look forward to trying something else next time I'm in the area.

Kokoro Bento - South Brisbane. At first hard to find, but when you know the direction to go to Kokoro Bento is a pleasant find that has both the luxury of being semi-isolated and quiet as well as having its apparent popularity. Between the busy construction on Cordelia Street near Musgrave Park and the back end of the convention centre it makes use of the unlikely location to find somewhere to eat. This food is quick, affordable and all the most important - tasty. It is a fairly small eatery that does not feel as such, with the open courtyard and tables outside. Kokoro Bento is an astutely recognised mixture of healthy, simple food that is palatable and quick for a spot of lunch. There is choices of sushi or traditional Japanese dishes (and a couple of Korean ones as well). Eating utensils and condiments are readily available for the customers to chose at their own decision before heading off; it should be noted that they do not provide plastic bags so if you are ordering a fair bit you might want to take your own. Service is really structured, using the numbering ticket for orders. It is well-done and organised and it is all that it needs to be ultimately, it is that kind of place. Keeping it simple. I got a curry chicken udon and some steamed gyozas from here, and both were pretty good. They did not taste like they came from a fast food outlet and the after-taste was actually good. The gyozas are readily available. The gyozas were small, not very slippery like they can tend to be and were generously stuffed. The pork meat was subtle in flavour making these a good start before the meal. Looking back, it was fortunate to eat these first as there is the stark flavour of the curry udon. How I did not make a mess and splatter with the udon noodles is a mystery with how slippery they were especially using those cursed wooden takeaway chopsticks to use in eating them. Still, it was all pretty damn tasty and generous. There were at least a half dozen bits of chicken katsu which were crispy and well cooked, with the chicken meat being soft and not yet falling apart. The noodles were soft and morish and it all came together as a satisfying meal. Let's hope that this place gets more clientele and recognition; it deserves it.
