Seeing all the food posts Tiffy's doing from Japan, I really craved for something Japanese, so I invited my co-interns and went out and ate at the nearest Japanese restaurant near my internship - Teriyaki Boy in Petron along Makati Avenue corner Jupiter St.
Teriyaki Boy offers its newest dishes, the Crazy Rolls, 12 different kinds of Maki that you will surely love. On my visit to T-boy that day, we tried the Philly Cheese Streak Roll.
Philly Cheese Steak Roll (Php 175; $USD 3.72) - An American classic with a Japanese twist. Teppanyaki beef with deep fried sweet onions, topped with flame torched cheese served with a dip. It was heavenly, and so satisfying.
We also got an order of Ma Po Tofu and an order of the Spicy Kakiage. Tofu is one of my favorite dishes. For me, almost anything and everything goes well with Tofu. The Ma Po Tofu we ordered was just the way I liked it. The pork and the sauce complimented the taste of the soft and fresh tofu dish. The spicy Kakiage, on the other hand, was excellent as well. It was deep fried with a batter and wrapped around Nori. The sauce dip was spicy and really perfect for me.

Yeah, I'm a convert now :) Tempura is much more affordable and their food is yummy :) Selection is, of course, a bit different :P Although Tempura definitely has more offerings :)
ReplyDeleteOnly con about Tempura is that there's no zaru soba :P Which used to be about the only thing I eat for lunch if we're having Japanese :) hahahh

ReplyDeleteI like the crazy rolls from teriyaki boy, although i would not erase the fact that omakase is ok as well, but teriyaki boy has stepped up with the rolls, try the dynamite and the saigon roll as well...so effin good!
ReplyDeleteDoes any restaurant have Japanese- French fusion maki? like croissant maki or something.
ReplyDeleteBut, shoot! I love Philly Cheese steak Maki and Cinco de Mayo too! Sumo Roll is too large for me though. Keepin' it slim! :p :p
@Anonymous true! :)
