The first restaurant I visited in Manila after we were cleared to go out was @kaigreenbelt. The soft shell crab spider rolls were such a stand out. The Angus beef melts in your mouth while the tempura — gotta have a classic — came with a light crisp that complemented the freshness of the prawns. So good. . Enjoyed the desserts as well like these bananas lightly fried and topped with ice cream (like the upgraded, fancier version of the dessert called ‘turon’ we Filipinos grew up with). You also get an option to make your own smores. Really yummy and made me long for chillier weather. But if you’re a bit clumsy like me with the cooking, better get your companion to do the marshmallow roasting for you. Don’t burn yourself in the process. Just stick to taking photos and enjoying the food. 😉 . Kai is open for dine-in and they follow pandemic protocols. You are seated diagonally with acrylic dividers and your tableware comes packed. They also have an outdoor dining area and they offer takeaway. . . . . #AlmostDiplomatic #Manila . . . . . . . . #kaigreenbelt #maniladining #manilarestaurants #japanesefood #japanesefusion #manilafoodie #diplolife #diplowife #diplomaticlife #diplomatswife #expat #expatlife #expatliving #livingabroad #globetrotter #liveauthentic #liveunscripted #fusionfood #womenwhohustle #living_europe #expatmanila #expatph #foodstagramph #makatieats #makatibased #makatibasedph #manilaeats #invited (at Kai Japanese Restaurant) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIVZAZEALjV/?igshid=1x8dfd9j184o0

YOSHINOYA | October 13, 2016

First time foodie at Yoshinoya (Glorietta 1) and I’m totally sold all because they serve hearty meals at a reasonable price.

Japanese food is tricky. I’m a lover of it although not an expert. I look for that authentic taste and freshness every time but most restaurants fail to deliver and when they do, they charge an arm and a leg for a small ass portion. This makes Yoshinoya special. Share portions at an okay price, fresh ingredients, and very tasty!

I’ve tried fast casual Japanese restos and this spot definitely tops my list now. I highly recommend their Jumbo plates wherein you can choose two mains on top of rice and vegetables for only 205 pesos (good for sharing) and their ramens all at 129 pesos per bowl. Their wide variety of bento boxes and tempura bento meals range from 159-179 pesos only!

One item in their menu that I totally miss now is their fresh Kani salad. It is delightfully fresh and crisp with such a delicious dressing of what I think was seasoned kewpie mayo. I’ve never had such a great salad in any Japanese resto I’ve been to! And if I remember well it was only 79 pesos per serving.

I would so go back!

Yoshinoya is located in SM MOA, North Edsa, Megamall, and Manila, Ayala Fairview Terraces, Glorietta 1, and Robinson’s Galleria.
