Hanaichi Japanese Fine Foods

Hanaichi Japanese Fine Foods diversifying from the traditional sushi that springs to mind whenever Japanese food is mentioned, the company Director feels the need to introduce to the Australia public the wide range of food that Japan has to offer other than its tasty sushi. With that in mind, he opened his first Hanaichi outlet in the heart of the Brisbane city offering Japanese fine food such as famous Japanese curry with deep fried crumbed meat, udon noodle soup and chicken teriyaki. Food cooked in this manner was very much similar to the casserole that Australians can relate to but with a unique touch of Asian taste in it. It was an instant success among many and soon new outlets were opened in other places in Brisbane.

Review:

“Best fast food I have ever had!!! The price was really cheap and the quantity was generous. For $8.60 you can get a regular size chicken curry which makes your tommy really full. But the large size is definitely a value deal too! Would definitely recommend everyone to come and try this place out.”-Stanley Zhang
