WHY GO

Japanese restaurants are few and far between in Manila's gaming and entertainment district. If the diner has a hankering for high-end Nippon cuisine, this is worth trying.

TATLER TIPS

For diners with an overflowing billfold, the restaurant has an extensive selection of seafood imported directly from the Tsukiji market. For diners who don't want to think, the grilled beef and fish of the day set menu is a good option. It comes with a wafu salad which is nice and piquant, grade A sashimi, mouth-watering rib-eye, shrimp tempura, and fish. The miso soup and tempura sauce come very light, so feel free to infuse it with your favourite condiments. The tempting sakura macaroon with vanilla and raspberry sorbet is a sight to behold and to taste.
