About Wasshoi Bar and Grill

Market veterans make a straight beeline for this buzzing Prahran Market counter. The draw? Blistering, charcoal-fired meats stuffed into impossibly crisp, pillowy bread rolls—a messy, fiercely savory triumph. Grab a stool. Watch the smoke rise as chefs char-score thick cuts of twice-cooked pork belly right in front of you. Savvy lunch crowds queue early for these decadent buns, stacked with crunchy kimchi and dripping in rich teriyaki-chilli sauce. Prefer a bowl? The juicy beef tsukune donburi hits every comforting note. Wash that smoky richness down with a tart, ice-cold Kochi yuzu juice. Sure, you might wait a minute while everything fires fresh on the grill. But that first crunchy, deeply sauced bite proves exactly why this stall commands such fierce loyalty. Grab extra napkins.

  • Signature Bun Rolls: Crisp, pillowy French-style bread stuffed with charcoal-grilled, twice-cooked pork belly and tangy kimchi.
  • Counter-Side Theater: Grab a stool right at the grill to watch the bustling open kitchen char-score meats to order.
  • Kochi Yuzu Juice: A perfectly tart, refreshing Japanese citrus drink that easily cuts through the rich, savory meats.
  • Hearty Donburi: Fluffy rice bowls topped with juicy, perfectly seasoned beef tsukune or tender charred chicken fillets.
