the one with how to catch up japanese style

Ok fine OA lang ang title. Well ang ginawa lang naman ni Mel ay kumain ng Japanese food habang chumichika.

Since I am just a Jenni Epperson fan and I believe in her taste with food, Mel and I decided to brave the weekend Makati CBD streets to see Manila Maki. 

Japanese food was part of our college barkada. I remember we would frequent Shiki, a small japanese resto in Porta Vaga then transferred to Session Road then I don't know where because the last time I went to Baguio, June of this year, it wasn't there anymore. Yes, it all started back in college. But then when I went back to Manila after college, excited that there are more japanese restaurants here only to find out that most of my friends aren't a fan. They just like the doburis and katsus but they are not adventurous with sushis, sashimis and other japanese rolls.

So everytime that I have a craving, I always call one of my college barkada,  tadaa! Thanks Mel.

So ang dami ko pang sinabi.

INSIDE Manila Maki

I know Pare. It's really hard to choose most especially we were craving! Aaaah!

The FOOD

Manila Maki Miso Soup - Miso Soup with a tamarind twist

Pork Katsu with Gravy - All Katsus taste good to me. Hehe.

Seared Tuna Kinilaw - This one's good I tell you.

Manila Maki Roll  - you can easily tell good rolls and this one is.

Aligue Chahan - Yummy to the last bite.

Just so you know, Mel did all the choosing. I always ask her to do the "ordering" when we eat out as she is allergic to eating chicken.

We also ordered Adarna Roll and the House Iced Tea, yes yes I forgot to take photos as we were seriously 'catching up' stories.

My Catch Up Japanese Plate aka Lovely Plate

I know Mel would love this photo. So did we finish 'em all? That I'm not gonna tell..

For the stories, yummy food and crazy ideas..

merci merci Mel
