Give it a try last weekend. The pork chop itself is great. The staff is still inexperienced/inefficient. So the food comes slow...

I had the #1 Tenderloin set. I asked what's the difference between #1 and #2, the staff said #2 is more fatty meat.
It comes with pickle, miso soup, one dipping sauce for the cabbage, and one other sauce for the pork chop, also some grind sesame.
Because I waited rather long, I forgot to take pic at the beginning....this is half way thru my 'lunch'...

Will I go back? Yeah, but wait until the lineup is not that long...

I had my Saboten Set Menu # 2 on Jan 21. Less than CAD $ 10 with tax. The dipping sauce is yummy. Like the black sesame too.

Super crispy. Cannot describe in words.

Nothing fancy, but I would consider the left over oil on the paper... The cutlet is pretty well handled, looks okay though.

How do you know?
作者: 布小熊    時間: 2012-1-25 12:39

From the pictures, I think the styrofoam plate and the oily paper is a turn off.
If they can be served in a returnable box/tray with wire racks (with deposit via return), it would look a lot nicer.
Or they can use paper takeout box with sections like some takeout places use here (Corner 23) . They look nicer and are better to the env.
But if it's a chain, these are probably exactly what they use in Japan.. But I can't picture this presentation in Japan... even in HK.

淨係1470一日幾個節目不停吹, 老笨蛋讚到走音, 李婉華讚咗半點鐘. 落力非常, 仲唔係老馮, 係邊個呀.

^ +1 成半個鐘頭齋聽雙李係到擦鞋﹐都幾反感。

間豬扒EXPRESS第一日幫襯係就係塊炸皮好脆. 第二次去試埋個豬脊﹐已經塊炸皮擺左FEW MINUTES就林左。等餐期間發現間野裡面勁多國語人﹐不知是好還是壞

個 MISO 同 D 酸瓜 只係行貨﹐果D伴菜真的可以稱為沙律﹖

雙李誇到話每粒米都要揀過﹐碎既唔要﹐圓而大粒的先要!

日本米都無得出國﹐區區美國米﹐使唔使遂粒揀訝?

After Japanese pizza, cream puffs, crepes, Mr Fung should open Chinese style pork chop shop.

100% agree
作者: low_B    時間: 2012-2-9 10:37

had it yesterday, the pork chop was good , but for the curry was soso lor. The portions seems to be small w/that price, rice is not really good jer.....but still long lineup
作者: 吳孟達    時間: 2012-2-9 12:24

Based on my analysis, once everyone in Vancouver tried once for the next 2 months, it will cool off and died down eventually.

Most of my friends told me they will only try once because of the small portion and greasy fatty port chops are not good for health anyway.

And based on the past observations (japanese pizza, crepe, udon place, tofu dessert, beard papa), there will be no line up ever and forever after 2 months.

The only line up places are for the winners of Mambo, Leung Kee, and Wind Sand Chicken Wings
作者: peter236    時間: 2012-2-9 16:04

Beard Papa now has a few stores, maybe that's why there is no lineups.

Mr Fung should invite some Indian food or Filipino food to his food court.

LOL
Sad yet its true.....
Pretty much none of the franchise fairchild got became a huge success. Maybe except daiso.

Yesterday I ordered a Pork Loin set at Saboten and the cashier told me my order will take 40 mins around 6pm. Everything sold out around 7:15pm.

Any idea why it will take that long ?

    I think the staff is not that efficient, comparing to other food court booth.

we went because they have been highly recommended on AM1470 but we were a bit disappointed. The pork chop is ok but not as exceptionally delicious as they claimed. We have waited for 40 minutes in order to have my order on Saturday.

I think i won't go back.

The line up at Saboten is becoming a 名勝 in Richmond now. Every time I past by, I can see people holding up their cameras/phones to take pictures of the line up.
作者: peter236    時間: 2012-3-1 17:59

You don't need to line up there now.
作者: 嘉嘉    時間: 2012-3-30 19:03
