Meet MR. KUROSAWA

Sa sobrang hilig siguro namin ni H2B sa Anime, na attrack kami sa Menu display ng Mr. Kurosawa while strolling sa Newport Mall, Resort World. Jap-Euro Fuzion Food. Got curious or rather attracted lang sa "ANIME BURGER"

Paglapit ng waitress unang tanong ni H2B, "miss, sino si Mr. Kurosawa?" smile lang si Miss.

"Japanese ba cook niyo?"

Waitress: Sir, hindi po.

"aah, yung may-ari?"

Waitress: hindi rin po. Pilipino po un may-ari."

"aaahh"... waitress, "sir, gusto niyo malaman kung sino po ang may-ari?"

"sino?"

waitress: "si Mr. Marvin Agustin po."

AAAAAHHHH...

Anyway....

The PLACE... so like the portraits sa ceiling!

The FOODS... dahil sa fusion, Japanese food with euro twist. plus un mga kakaibang name ng foods, Anime Burgers and Roboto Dogs

The new generation Sushi. California. California Maki style pero crepe un pangbalot.

Wild Mushroom Salad. I like mushroom!! I love the vinaigrette sauce. ang awkward lang may crepe sa salad with mushroom and vinaigrette sauce sa loob. Un crepe kasi hindi mabilis mapunit, hindi ko medyo like, crepe sa salad tapos we had sushi crepe na rin kasi.

the Voltes Five Burger in Angus beef. Hmmm.. I think mga 350+php 'to. Sabi ni H2B, worth it daw. hmmm.. di ko masyado na enjoy 'to, nagmamadali na kasi kami. Late na kami sa movie. medyo matagal din kasi lumabas un mga food.

Nagastos namin.... almost 1,300php para sa merienda lang. Ay, nag beer pa kasi si H2B.

Sango! Experience

After a long fight in the car... Nothing can make you de-stress but comfort foods. While most of the store in Shangri-la Mall were closing, we are looking for something to de-stress all of our problems. The Japanese burger master joint was the answer. Our favorites Japanese meal in burger or sandwich. And of course, Rice burgers!!! Rice burgers reminds me of MOS burger in Japan, my first rice burger experience.

Nothing beats the sweet taste of Japanese Yakiniku!! rice burger, or the over toppings of veggies from my Czar Hotdog sandwich. We enjoyed each bite!!

Alberto's Pizza delivery; Only in Cebu.

Something Cheap...

Something besides Chinese...

Since Pizza Hut and Greenwich couldn't deliver... we have ALBERTO's.

Alberto's Pizza is a small pizza company with a total of 13 branches here in Cebu. Luckily, one is located here at Canduman Town Center. They served pizza in 9" and 11" diameter; from simple "yummy hotdog pizza" to "meaty royale".  The price also differ from the cheese of your choice; either quickmelt or mozzarella. 

Our Favorite...

The GARDEN EXPRESS; button mushroom, pineapple tidbits, olives, fresh tomatoes, onion, red and green bell pepper. For only P135.00 in quickmelt Cheese.

We usually ordered Pepperoni or All Hungarian... But this time we want something new,

BEEF SHAWARMA. Our favorite shawarma ingredients in pizza; ground beef, cucumber, lettuce, onions and tomatoes.  Although the dressing made the pizza more soggy, the taste was okey. P149 in quickmelt cheese.

C.O.K.

Have you been to Banawe Avenue lately? Do you loved to eat? tired of Chinese food? Have you try the new Restaurant near Starbucks? 

Have you heard the name CULINARY OUT KAST?

You might want to google it and find out others experienced.

Or you might want to read this blog, for a start.

Culinary Out Kast or COK, opened June of last year, located at Banawe Ave. Quezon City (across Cambridge Preschool).  It has a cozy ambiance, for the owner wants their customers to feel "at home".  You can read books, magazines, and daily newspaper while waiting for your meal. Take note, that COK is not a fast food, or shall I say, eating is comfort. They assure you that your food is served hot and fresh from the kitchen. 

Food they served.... Personally, I loved the Sisig rolls, Fish and Chips, the Beef tapa for breakfast, the Coconut seafood pasta, Beef burger, Baked ribs and Pepperoni pizza.  They also served Steak but it is pricey compared to Everything at Steak. They used imported beef and NO tenderizer.

As Love month approaching, try the Coconut seafood pasta. The Coconut Seafood pasta is the signature dish of COK.  It was invented/created by Chef Richie and his girl friend, now fiance, when they entered a school competition and won, in their College years.  The competition's theme was (I think) celebrating Valentine's Day.  Just like love and life, it has sweetness taste with a twist of spiciness.  Thus, Coconut seafood pasta was created.

Affordable meals @ Nonki

Mang Inasal's unlimited rice or Sashimi at Nonki's... that was our choice when we decided to have our lunch near Mactan airport before Mom's flight to Manila.  We were not craving for anything and sooo... our feet carried us to Nonki.  

Miso Soup and Rice

One thing I like about Cebu is they know how to treat foreign guests.  So, as much as possible I always pretend that I cannot understand Visayan language.  It was frustrating sometimes when they are not being maasikaso with their kababayan.  It wasn't my first time at Nonki but first time here in Airport Road, Mactan.  Still, the ambience is welcoming and nice friendly waitresses.  My first experienced at Nonki, I spent almost 2K just for 3 person, quite expensive but the food was really good. But this time, I discovered they have lunch sets of meal.  All meal are served with miso soup and a cup of rice plus, a complimentary of one scoop of ice cream or mixed fruits. My siblings and I ordered the Pork Teppanyaki lunch set.

The Pork Teppanyaki luch set is served with miso soup, rice, (of course) the pork teppanyaki served in sizzling plate with  stir fry bean sprouts, Sashimi platter, and lastly the complimentary dessert.

Here's the happy part, you can enjoy the Pork Teppanyaki lunch set for only  290.00 php only.

My mom ordered for (something) Soba lunch set; served with miso soup, cold soba with  special soba sauce (the small cup in the middle), sweet Japanese rice (the one they used to make the sushi) topped with mixed sashimi.  My mom enjoyed her meal!! she was making her own sushi.  Enjoy this meal for 380.00 Php only!

Nothing is chocolatier than MAITRE CHOCOLATIER

MAITRE CHOCOLATIER, is a new cafe in Ayala Center Cebu.  From the name itself, from interior designing to their menu.. chocolates.
They serve only chocolates.
They sell chocolates.


The food is okey... but I don't recommend this to people who has a big appetite, hehe.  After our meal, We didn't dare to order desserts...

Linguine in Pesto Sauce with Parm-Crusted Chicken with white chocolate sauce.  Thumbs-up!! I love the tender juicy chicken with white chocolate sauce!!    190php+VAT

Grilled Chicken in Chocolate Pomegranate Sauce. The dark thingy on my chicken is not sunog, chocolate yan.  For the chicken, I wasn't impress. It was dry.  When the waiter asked me how I want the doneness of my Chicken, I was shocked! sa pagkakaalam ko chicken should be cook cooked (I even told the waiter, you don't ask people if they want their chicken medium cooked). kaya siguro dry yung chicken na served nila sa akin. hehe     215php+VAT

Dark Chocolate Blended drinks.  140PHP+VAT

Mint Chocolate with liquor.  140php+VAT

They also sell chocolates and bouquet of ferrero. 48php per stem

ROMA MIA

I'm a first timer here at ROMA MIA, recommended by Shoti and Mama.  They have the good grilled pork chop, according to syoti. We were in Ayala last sunday, so why not eat there. We were gutom na gutom. It was past lunch time na nung natapos ang appointments namin. The place is ok. Since mga 2pm na nun, they have only two customers. 

For starter, we ordered calamari, unfortunately their squid got spoiled na daw. So instead, we ordered pasta.

Puttanesca. (From the word puttanata, a noun means something worthless or something easy to prepare).  I was chatting with Sir J early that morning at FB about my wedding and how I wanted him to sing on that day.. I order this pasta because of him.  When he cooked Puttanesca for the choir.  I wasn't a fan of pasta, I don't like tomatoes or too much tomatoes (made my stomach upset) but Sir J's Puttanesca is still one of the best pasta I ever tasted.  Even though I'm allergic to anchovies I had one plate of his cooking.

Recommended by shoti, Godfather Chop (grilled pork chop). its thicker than the usual porkchop we had at home yet its juicy and tender.

Tuna belly for my achi. no comments in this one. nothing special I think.

Summer Cooler.
