[BGC EATS] Marugame Udon Philippines – Bonifacio High Street

It has been almost two and a half years since our food-loving family returned to the Philippines from Indonesia. It has also been almost two and a half years since we ate at our favorite restaurants over there and to this date, we still miss a lot of them. Good thing, slowly but surely some of them have already arrived here in Manila and one of them will be featured in this edition of EATSplorations. We will be sharing our EATSperience about one of the trending BGC EATS in the recent months, Marugame Udon Philippines at Bonifacio High Street. What is Marugame Udon? Well, Marugame Udon (or Marugame Seimen in Japan) is a Japanese noodle place that serves up hot and cold udon (thick noodles in light broth) and a line of freshly fried tempura, all cafeteria-style. So, all of you noodle-lovers out there, must line up just like everybody else, got it? If you want to know more about this new noodle craze that would probably compete with the perennial favorite ramen, keep on reading because this EATSperience will surely catch your tummies attention. Enjoy! Continue reading…

It’s been a long time since we last visited Quezon City for a food trip. If we are not mistaken, it’s been probably been around 2-3 months.

Just this past Saturday after going to our pedia, we headed straight to SM North to have lunch at one of Manila’s most famous dimsum restaurants, King Chef Dimsum Kitchen.

Chibo Okonomiyaki – S Maison, SM Mall of Asia Complex

We’ve always had a perception that Japanese food is a work of art.

After having an eventful afternoon, our tummies started to grumble and good thing our friends were hungry too. So we decided to have dinner at a nearby restaurant. In this edition of EATSplorations, we will be sharing with you our Chibo Okonomiyaki- S Maison, SM Mall of Asia Complex EATSperience. Join us as we discover what Chibo has to offer.

Kaiseki at Kyo-to – Legaspi Village, Makati

Another first. Another memorable EATSperience. Yes, this was one of those EATSperiences that left us speechless—a meal that we marveled at. This EATSperience was at a restaurant that is considered to be one of Makati’s hidden gems. That hidden gem is Kyo-to. Named after the former imperial capital and cultural heart of Japan. At Kyo-to, diners will EATSperience the highest expression of Japanese gastronomy called “Kaiseki”. For first-timers like us, Kyo-to’s presser defined it as, “An elegant multiple course meal, served with the best seasonal ingredients”. Yes, we are in for another treat, but this time, what made it more special was the authentic EATSperience Kyo-to brought to the table. Join us as we eat and appreciate the art of Kaiseki at Kyo-to in Legaspi Village, Makati, enjoy! Continue reading…
