Yakitori Kitchen

One of the few things that I remember while I was in Japan years ago - was seeing a LOT of places that served yakitoris.  These places were everywhere - some were big while some were small.  I'm sure they all tasted wonderful!

Here in Manila - the only place that I get to eat yakitoris are in Little Tokyo good thing, there's a new player in town!!



The Food Club was invited to try out Yakitori Kitchen a few days before Christmas.  Yakitori Kitchen is located in Burgos Circle - since I live on the other end of the city, I braved the traffic.  And I must say - it was worth the travel, because I enjoyed the food and (most especially) the company!

We were served so many varieties - all of them WONDERFUL!  I never thought that the whole chicken with different parts dissected can be served up with Yakitoris!  Imagine - chicken wings, chicken neck, chicken cartilage, chicken legs and the sinful chicken skin!  No part of the chicken went to waste, all of them can be grilled - and it was simply delish!

Yakitori's are the perfect food to be paired with drinking in my opinion.  How I wish I could do that - well, a few more months and I can drink again!  Hahaha..

The menu of Yakitori Kitchen consists mainly of chicken, but we were told that they will soon add other varieties to the menu.  The prices are affordable - for the quality of the food that you get and the ingredients that they use to prepare these yakitoris - wow!!

So if you're in the area - check it out and enjoy these yakitoris!  I know I'll come back for more!! :)  Yey!!

On the side - little did I know that the people behind Yakitori Kitchen are also behind Ramen Bar - they too will soon open another ramen place in Trinoma!  Goodie!!

    My girlfriend went to Japan recently and she loved yakitori. Would you recommend other restaurants that serve yakitori? Thank you.

ANSON SUPERMARKET - Grocery delivery!!

Sharing is caring, so we can't keep it a secret any longer.  THIS is where we get out groceries!  Well, Anson Supermarket has been where we have been purchasing all of our kids' diapers!  From Kailee to Connor to Shobe!  Yes, yes, yes! A week into the lockdown, it just occurred to us that we can get our groceries from them - but then we thought, we didn't want to force them to do it - after all it's a different time now.  But when we asked and they said yes, it was like we won the lottery.  We sent out our list - a very VERY SPECIFIC list and voila after a day or two (we weren't in a rush) they told us to schedule a pick up.  Please remember that I am sharing this with you guys because I believe so much in the saying 'sharing is caring'.  Please be mindful of your language and respect those who will call or message you about your orders.  Also note that some items might NOT be available - so manage your expectations.   They're a ...

#CookingQuest: Winter Melon Soup ala Didi #EnhancedCommunity

One of the things that gets ooohs and aaaahs in a chinese restaurant is the #WinterMelonSoup.   You may ask why?  Well because with this soup, restaurants use the winter melon itself as a huge bowl to serve the soup!  It's a sight to see as you'll be amazed how they were able to pull it off.  You'll see the whole winter melon, and then suddenly they're take out the top part and when you peek in, the soup is inside together with meat bits and other veggies!  My mom has tried it at home, and I remember her being nervous that the winter melon doesn't break apart, kunde sira ang presentation! So during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine, I chanced upon Theo's Farm that they have winter melon, so I ordered.  When I saw it - I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off the carving and serving the winter melon.  It actually made the preparation easier.  I had to ask my mom, and she told me to steam the winter melon to soften it.  Honestly, I don't t...

#CookingQuest: Chicken Stir Fry

When I was little, I used to see my mom, guama and aunt cook in the kitchen.  I found it amazing, that they have this idea in their heads on what to cook for us.  I remember my guama had small bits of plastic that when opened contained shirmp and cooked pork fat.  I asked her what it was for, and she told me that it was to add 'flavor' to the dish whatever it was.  I don't remember seeing her look at any cook book or a paper with recipe.  She just whipped them all up! When I got older, I became interested in baking - baking because I was afraid of splattering oil.  So I stuck to baking for a while.  It was only when I got married that I had to dive in and cook.  When my Panget and I were newly married, we didn't have a helper during the weekend, so I had to step up.  There were times that we didn't have a helper at all (we borrowed my mom's helper to clean), so I had to do all the cooking.  It was there that I learned to whip s...
