Gindaco, IOI City Mall
I was looking for something light as a kudap-kudapan when I went to the IOI City Mall with my sisters recently. After contemplating about 10-15 minutes, we decided to try the Gindaco. In all honesty, I have never heard about this store before. This was also my first time seeing the store in the IOI City Mall. I guess it's a pretty new store?
Menu at the Gindaco, IOI City Mall
Initially, my sisters and I decided to have separate orders; 6 pieces of Original takoyaki and 6 pieces of Ebimayo takoyaki. However, the owner (I assume so) was ever so kind and suggested that we order the Party Box of 16 pieces of takoyaki so that we could get more bang for our buck and still get the desired takoyaki toppings.
Tip: Order one of the Party Boxes if you are sharing the takoyaki with other people. You'll save MYR 3.60 maximum if you order the 16 pieces or MYR 8.25 maximum if you order the 24 pieces.
Party Box - 16 pieces of Original & Ebimayo Takoyaki
MYR 27.30
I was pleasantly surprised and happy when I opened the box! The balls were huge and the toppings were generous. I felt so full just by looking at those balls. Thankfully, they were delicious too! In fact, this might be one of the best takoyaki that I have ever tasted. And yes, this beat the Takoyaki @ Ramen Arashi, Banff.
PSA: I've only eaten takoyaki a few times in my life, mostly in Canada. The only takoyaki that I have ever tried on this side of the world were ones that were sold in pasar malam. lol.
Conclusively, I definitely won't shy away from visiting the Gindaco next time, especially if I have a craving for takoyaki. However, I'm not sure when is the next time because there are still a lot of F&B outlets that I want to try in IOI City Mall.
Tip: You may want to wait for a bit before eating because the takoyaki are piping hot. I would say it would be best to wait at least 7-10 minutes after they served you. Otherwise, get ready for your mouth to be burned :p
