For our virtual lunch date last week, David (pickydiners.com) suggested that we order from Guu on Davie as they are offering some affordably priced Bento Boxes.
Their Bento Boxes are priced around $10 – $13 and include different options like Grilled Mackerel, Grilled Salmon, Beef Tongue Steak, Beef Hanger Steak, Spicy Chicken Steak, Teriyaki Chicken Steak, Chicken Karaage, Assorted Deep-fried, Pork Cutlet, and Miso Pork Cutlet.
We went with the Assorted Deep-fried Bento Box ($10.80) which had deep-fried mackerel, chicken karaage, pork cutlet as well as rice and miso soup.
Everything was pretty good and reasonably valued for what you get. All the deep-fried items were light and crispy and not super heavy. The only thing was that the pork cutlet was a bit tough.
Check out Guu Davie for their takeout menu. They are open 7 days a week 12 pm – 8 pm. No cash, credit/debit only. You can order by phone or walk-in.
