OMAKAZE Maki Fever!

By
Topics: Food

His popular maki creations include Jurassic Maki (P230++) composed of Ebi Tempura, Kani (crab meat), Ebiko (orange thingy), salmon skin inside out unagi and Crazy Maki (P140++) composed of spicy tuna & salmon inside, scallion and ebiko outside. Personally, I love the Jurassic Maki because of the texture of the salmon skin, different unique taste of the ingredients, and you can’t go wrong with unagi and ebi tempura.
Omakaze Menu Selections Donburi and Oyster Specials Seafoods, Tempura Dishes and Vegetables A la Carte Beef, Pork, Poultry and Tofu Dishes Sushi and Sushi Side Order Appetizers, Soups, Nabemono/ Menrui Side Orders, Bento Box, Desserts Beverages Spicy Tuna Salad (P170++) Raw Cubes of Tuna with Salad Dressing I loved this spicy raw tuna collection and surprisingly it did not taste raw at all.

Power Max Breakfast !

By
Topics: #Restaurants

The only unique meal in Max breakfast line up is the Triple Chocolate Champorado and the Gourmet Tuyo (take note, it is a gourmet tuyo and not an ordinary one). … What I like about the breakfast meal is the cheesy love songs and bossa nova songs to perk up your day in the Max Glorietta branch. … I would only go to Max if I was craving for a P75 meal of Triple Chocolate Champorado and Gourmet Tuyo — what a combination!

It seems to be a generic name with a classy touch because of the 1B — (but the Apartment 1B is the actual unit name in One Lafayette Square which was formerly an unknown bar).
…As you go up the stairs, this cozy table setup with sofa chairs and rug underneath is just one out of the three tables in Apartment 1B. … Apartment 1B Menu Wine Menu and Beverages Menu Breakfast Menu Starters, Sandwiches and Entrees Dessert and Small Plates Menu Puree of Squash and Ginger , herbed croutons — Fantastic blend of fresh squash soup with a ginger kick to it.

Jatujak in Mall of Asia!

Jatujak Menu: Click for a bigger Version Before heading off to watch the Chinese Acrobats, Korean Paper Doll Lanterns, and the Italian Light Display, I would recommend to eat in this no-non sense Thai place called Jatujak in Mall of Asia.
…”Up until yesterday, I could only think of Muang Thai in QC to recommend…but now I’ve found another satisfying resto in Jatujak. … What we liked about the soup was that it didn’t heavily rely on the spicy tom yum paste to flavor it, so you could still taste the other aromatics like galanggal and coriander.

a BULANtines Day!

Topics: #Restaurants

You would feel that if you complain about the food and how expensive it is, they would tell you that you’re a sour grape and you’re not rich enough to be their target market. Their P1,000+ seabass tasted like grilled hard tanguingue, and it was replaced by cod that was also mushy raw — (I’m glad that they did not let us pay for it).
…We are starting to suspect at this point that it is either they have a problem with their source of meat/ fish or the chef is not in the kitchen!

Roshan’s Lemon Torte

By
Topics: Food

When eaten, the walnuts shatter in the mouth, giving way to the meringue’s subtle crunch of complaint before melting on the tongue in a sea of sweet, releasing a dazzling tang of lemon.
…” Roshan’s lemon torte is the real thing: no soggy layers of meringue and no lack of nuts that have been crushed to a fare-thee-well. … The lemon curd is true to its essence, with just enough butter and yolks to round out the sweetness and bite.” (see: Roshan’s Lemon Torte by Lori, dessercomesfirst.blogspot.com )
