Tendon Akimitsu has arrived in the Philippines for quite some time. Finally, it opens its first solo shop in Glorietta 1 Top of the Glo.
I was really surprised to find that Glorietta 1 recently opened a roof deck area called Top of the Glo. Although I have only explored its Japan Town, I hope to come back and check out more.
Tendon Akimitsu boasts of its awards as displayed by its counter. Seeing these made me want to try it out with excitement.
Maki
♥ Aburi Salmon (350 php) |
Although specializing in tempura, I highly recommend wleting your appetite with the Aburi Salmon as a starter. Just looking at this makes me fantasize of having this again.
Tendon Set
♥ Nami Tendon Set (410 php) |
If you want to try a wonderful seafood tempura mix, order the Nami Tendon Set which is composed of Ebi Tempura (tiger prawns), scallops, whitebait fish, shrimps, okra and sweet potato.

Although Tendon Akimitsu is one of the new Tendon restaurants in Asakusa being established only in 2015, I trully believe that it deserves to be awarded for its Tempura. It is indeed one of the best I've had. The meal is very filling and worth the price. Though, I felt the need to ask for more tempura sauce which the servers happily adhered to.
Donburi Set
Beef Don (350 php) |
Pork Don (320 php) |
The Pork Don was also tough and dry.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Tendon Akimitsu proves worthy of having garnered mulitple awards for its Tendon. So glad that it has more branches, I will head on over when craving for Tempura. As for the donburi, I hope to give it another try next time as it did not meet my expectations.

Platina Modern Japanese Food Village: Home of 16 Authentic Food Stores from Japan (Brgy. Poblacion, Makati City)
Japanese food is one of the most-loved cuisine in the Philippines. While I would love to eat authentic Japanese food everyday, the high cost of Japanese food prevents me in doing so. So when I heard about Platina Modern Japanese Food Village with 16 authentic food franchises from Japan. The price range is from 150 php to 500 php.
The ambiance differs per area. Platina labelled this bar area on the first level as the Roppongi Street.

Sushi Sakura
Probably the first one to impress me was this Salmon Aburri Maki with Aligue Mayo. I just love how flavorful it is and the salmon almost melts unto your mouth.
Kushikatsu Ebisuya
This Pork Kushi looks a bit drenched in oil. Let it sit for awhile so some oil is drained. I like the tenderness though.
Kobe Beef Burger
The Wagyu Burger is also a must try! Aside from the juicy wagyu pattie, you can also enjoy your burger with unique sauces like teriyaki sauce.
The Fried Potato is nothing special but still the best pair for burgers right?
Pig Man
If you're looking for for authentic yet affordable pork donburi, then try out the Pork Bowl at Pig Man.
Tappan Yaki Kushi No Nobo
Surely, one of the best Osaka-style Okonomiyaki (お好み焼き) I've had in Manila is Tappan Yaki Kushi No Nobo's Meat DX - with beef, pork and chicken meats. As expected from a brand that has multiple stores in Okinawa.
Pizzeria di Baldi
I'm a big fan of Neopoli Pizza or Brick Oven Pizza. These are pizzas which are baked at a high temperature for a short time so the flavor is sealed in. We don't have enough of these in the Metro. Thus, I really welcome Pizzeria di Baldi authentic and quality Neopoli Pizza.
There are a lot more to try. Some were not yet open or available during my visit. But, I found the concept of Platina Modern Japanese Food Village quite interesting. It really fits the food and drink scene of Poblacion.

I can't recall the last time I've been excited to try a newly opened Japanese restaurant. So I was quite intrigued when the family discovered one originating from Japan called "Washoku Musashi-Tei".
The place is usually crowded with foreign and Japanese guests. They also have function rooms for group privacy.
This is set on the table while we were waiting for our orders.
It also serves complimentary brown rice tea.

♥ Aburi Salmon Don with Miso Soup (430 php) |
The aburi I've encountered are usually very extravagant. But, I've always believed that the best things are the simple things and this Aburi Salmon Don.
Ramen
♥ Seafood Tokujo Ramen (470 php) |
New
♥ Teppan Cheese Hamburg Teishoku (430 php) |
Curry
♥ Fujisan Katsu Curry (450 php) |
Katsu
Fillet Katsu 3 pcs. ala carte (380 php) |
Just looking at the Fillet Katsu, you can already see how perfectly fried it is right?
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Washoku Musashi-tei is a well-rounded Japanese restaurant that will surely satisfy you whatever your Japanese dish craving is. Given the food quality and portion, I find the pricing to be justified. I believe the quality is as high as prestigious and expensive hotel Japanese restaurants.
