Sandaime Japanese Restaurant

G/F Eastwood Mall

There was something quite familiar with this place.

I just couldn't point it out until my Son

said, "Mom, this is Mr. Kurosawa."

Oh dear... Ok then, let's give it another try

but I'm not getting the Euro-Jap fusion dishes,

like the green fried chicken...

The server said that they made their dishes

more authentic. Is that so?

Oh well ... There weren't a lot of people

in the restaurant. In fact, we were the  only 

customers at 7 o'clock.

It was a choice between CPK, Kettle and this place.

CPK was full. Kettle was a bit farther from my

real target, which was Milk Cow.

I wanted to eat the super creamy ice cream,

honeycomb and cotton candy.

Too bad they didn't have cotton candy.

That's Php 150 per cup.

Too pricey but worth every peso.

Yummy-ness!!!

Two reasons why my blood sugar soared to 375...

Kogi Bulgogi lunch with the travel buddies

for balikbayan, Dr. Aimee.

Kogi had a promo. Php 499 for all those 

chicken wings.  What a deal!!!

***

Italianni's in Eastwood

2/F at the New Mall

They had promo packages too and we got

two of them.  Carbo loading time!!!

No wonder my blood sugar soared.

Php 1350 for all these Italian food.

Not bad. We took home the leftovers.

***
Korean or Italian?  Both!!!

I love Kogi.

I love Italianni's too.

This is a late post, about six months late.

Finally had time to write about this place.

Son and I really loved their food and the price

of their dishes were really quite affordable.

Chicharon Bulaklak

Sizzling Sisig

Adobong Kangkong

Crispy Catfish

Karekare and Steamed Rice

Fried Halohalo

***

Son and I have dined here several times since it

has a branch at SM Marikina, which is nearest

our home and very convenient to go to,

usually after we do our grocery shopping

or right after watching a movie.

Malinis and restawran na ito.

Masarap  ang pagkain at mura pa.

Rainy day comfort food from Karen's Kitchen

Tres Leches Cake / Php 90

Japanese Cheesecake / Php 84

Meatball Ribbon Soup / Php 175

US Angus Beef Sexy Heart Burger / Php 325

Baby Back Ribs / Php 395

***

Desserts were served first.

Syempre... I always eat cake before meals,

right after saying grace quietly in my head.

Rationale: You might get too full after a meal

and might not be able to eat cake anymore!!!

Their mini cakes were light and fluffy.

Son loved their Japanese cheesecake.

Another Syempre !!!

It's "Japanese"... as I have always written,

(I think my son has half Japanese-half Korean taste buds.)

The Tres Leches cake was a bit too sweet for me.

We weren't able to finish it, but it was good too.

It's been raining for the past days.

What could be better than having this

 Meatball Ribbon tomato based soup at

Karen's Kitchen on a rainy and cool day? 

 It's thick, meaty, filling,

 heavy, delicious and quite appetizing.

It's an entire meal. 

I wish they'd put more bread or a chunky

baguette to go with the soup.

It would be a perfect pair.

The US Angus Beef Sexy Heart Burger

was beautifully plated.  The burger patties 

were probably seasoned or flavored with onion, 

(Sana wala na lang. Para pure beef ang taste.)

After eating the cakes and the hearty soup, 

I couldn't finish the two mini burgers. 

 Had to have it wrapped for take out.  

The Baby Back Ribs could have been plated

better.  The meat was quite tender and tasty.

However, the sauce was too thin, rather soupy. 

The ribs could use a bit of grill marks or torched

before serving on a plate instead of a bowl, 

with thickened sauce on the side, plus

a hefty serving of french fries.

You know me, the carbo loader!

Overall, our merienda cena at

 Karen's Kitchen was delightful!!!

Lovely interiors, too.
