Hanging out with friends is good stuff! Looking for a place to eat when hanging out with friends is a bit tricky… After the usual chit-chat and a small debate, It is now time to eat. After choosing from several options and being bombarded with sales talks from Crustasia and Brazil! Brazil! People… We have decided to eat Japanese! :p
I have been to Tempura Japanese Grill in Alabang Town Center several times but this is the first time I will be blogging about it. The place serve delicious and yet reasonably priced Japanese food, both rice meals and Grilled foods are great! :p I am not a fan of raw Japanese stuff… and sushi… and maki… just the fried stuff :p
Tempura Japanese Grill in ATC is located along the cinema lane, right beside northpark.
One of the main feature of this restaurant is the Table Grill (No extra charge). They serve you the marinated meats and you will be the one to grill the meats. It is a fun experience and a nice way to bond and enjoy the company of your family and friends. Normally you should use chopsticks when grillin’ however since were not that talented… we use thongs instead :p Pathetic! :p
The place does not feel like “Japanese” that much. It is more like a fancy fast food store or a Shabu-Shabu house. The tables were nice and clean, the waiters were attentive and very friendly, the noise level is tolerable, but the service could be faster. the food took a while before being served. But hey, if you are with friends, not starving, and not paying attention, you would hardly notice the service is a bit slow :p
Pare Nakabalot pa ang Props Mo! Bwahahaha! :p
The food here is Superb! Not actually comparable to gourmet or authentic Japanese restaurants but at least at par or better than the usual like Teriyaki Boy or Rai Rai Ken or Saisaki, and not to mention, cheaper! No Hidden charges, what you see on the menu is what you pay!
Barbqued chicken served on top of rice with Japanese sauce :p
Banana-Nut shake? Yes!! It is for real, fresh bananas and fresh nuts! Crunchy nuts! You get the Idea… :p Taste ok but I’m not into it :p
All time Favorite Ripe Mango Shake…
Oyakudon! My all time favorite Japanese Rice Bowl Meal. Although on second thought, there was this small Japanese Restaurant in La Salle Dasma called Jatayna’s Japanese Food. They serve this dish called Torikuwayaki. It was chicken balls, fried and served with spicy secret sauce… It was so good! I could eat it everyday! AS IN! But apparently, I can’t seem to find a similar dish in other Japanese restaurants… It must be a unique dish that they created. I really Miss that Dish!!! I went back last year but to my luck, they ran out of chicken balls! :p Oh so Sad…! :p Will have to try again soon! :p
I don’t eat Tofu… but according to Paow.. this one was good as well.
Another Great rice Meal! Hefty serving!
Chahan Rice = Fried Rice… I think :p But this one is much flavorful.
All of these… for Just.. :p
Tempura’s Menu…
Thanks for Reading! Watch out For More! :p
