Hello, hivers. I know my last post was about my Thailand vacation, but I'll have to halt it to tell you about my experience at this Japanese restaurant. Before our departure to Thailand, my best friend Fatima arranged for us to meet for dinner. I'm not sure where to eat, and since she has a BDO credit card, she noticed that this restaurant offers 50% off whenever your bill reaches the maximum amount of the promotion, which is PHP 3,000.
She called and asked if this was okay, and I said yes because it was a great deal and I wanted to try this place as well. She advised that soon Mhei arrives, we meet her in New Port Manila, where the restaurant is located. To be honest, even though I have lived in Manila for two to three years, I am not really familiar with the city and will get lost there. It wasn't a huge concern because we hired a Grab and payed PHP 156.00. It was actually close to the airport, but because of some construction, it is not accessible.
We headed to the restaurant on the second level as soon as we arrived in New Port; there are many people there, so I'm eager to eat their food. Some of the food was unavailable, but we were able to obtain the menu. The fact that the meal I wanted to try was not available made me quite upset, but we had to make do with what we had. We ordered food and I went with Grilled BBQ Pork Rice Bowl Hokkaido Style. Mhei chose the Teppan Grilled Pork Gyoza and the Prawn Tempura Rice Bowl, while Fatima ordered the Pork Tonkotsu Ramen and a Vegetable Salad on the side. And for the dessert we had Banana Split**.
Overall, I think the cuisine is good, and I plan to try it again with my friends. The total cost was PHP 3,100, of which half was paid with Fatima's credit card. full stomach and a 50% discount is awesome!
