Little Tokyo Part 2

Working in a BPO industry with different schedules, my husband and I have seldom time for each other. I work in graveyard shift and he works 5 in the morning. But no matter how busy we are we have to make sure that we have time for each other. So we had a little date again at Little Tokyo and I got to try my favorite plum wine! I really love this wine.

And yes! I'm crazy over Hana's takoyaki and they got the best in town! Filled with octopus, nori, mayonaise and fish flakes, these six giant takoyaki balls are really great and would make one's tummy full in a minute. I can only eat 2-3 takoyaki balls, that's how heavy it is.



The next one that we ordered was this amazing Tuna Maki. I'm not good in eating fresh tuna but this maki nailed it! Just a little slice of tuna was wrapped in seaweed and topped with mayanoise. It's simplicity makes it one of Hana's best seller!

Of course what's the point of eating in a Japanese restaurant without ordering a noodle soup. This wonderful soup was seasoned with meat, egg and vegetables.I love it's very light but salty taste.One serving was enough for me and hubby.

For all those Japanese cuisine lovers, don't miss this little place in Little Tokyo. Best to go in the evening the ambiance is really cozy and cool. This place is located at 2277 Pasong Tamo, Corner Amorsolo Street, MakatiSee you there!

Hana at Little Tokyo


Lil Tokyo


Finally! I was able to visit Little Tokyo at Pasong Tamo (Chino Roces Avenue). It was my first time to go there with my officemate, Mac. We came there @ 11 AM  however it was not opened until 11:30AM.

with my friend mac
They offered tasty raw diet Japanese foods, the chefs and waiters are friendly and place is cozy.

We ordered Takoyaki, 2 Plum Wines, 2 Spicy Tuna Salad, 2 Sea Urchin Roll, 1 Takosu and 1 Fish Cake. The cost is around 1,200 php but the price is really worth it since servings are good for two.

The best part was the plum wine and takoyaki! The octopus in vinegar tastes good as well and I also like the fish cake with mayo and cheese. I wasn't able to finish the Spicy Tuna Salad since it is my first time to eat raw tuna. My friend ordered 2 Sea Urchin Roll but I didn't dare take a bite.

Next time I will definitely go back and try another restaurant at Little Tokyo and would make sure to order spicy ramen and okonomiyaki.
