Food find: Zaifu Japanese Restaurant

 

It’s the start of the long weekend, and my officemates and I decided to have lunch outside last Friday. Almost all of us had tried Wild Ginger, except one of our officemate, well, that was the original plan, until Ms. Carmella, Judy and I changed our minds (haha). One of our officemate recommended that we try Zaifu’s Chicken Terriyaki, the price was worth it and she was right.

I was not in the mood for chicken that day, so I decided to try their Pork chicken curry and bottomless ice tea.

                                                                       P170

                                                 Bottomless ice tea for P65

   The thing about this place is (first impressions), we all thought that this was an expensive Japanese restaurant only to find out we were wrong. The prices here are pretty reasonable, considering the location (almost everything seems expensive at Power Plant). Although, they have a 10% SC of P107.50 plus additional vat of P115.18

  All of us enjoyed our meals, so it safe to say that Zaifu is a winner! For my order, I liked it a lot! The curry was just right and I ended up so full. I thought that the pork pieces would be fried, like the curry rice at Teriyaki Boy, but it wasn’t. Personally, I would’ve liked it fried! (hehe). But even if it wasn’t, it was still filling!

The interiors are homey, the staff are pretty fast (except for what happened to our other officemate – she’s vegetarian) her order took a while to be served in the table.

                              Condiments you can expect

 

My overall experience with Zaifu was well worth it! I’m definitely going back for more, to try out their other dishes.

If anyone has tried Ziafu, I would love to hear your recommendations~

 

   Till then!

Dining out with John and Yoko

    Our friend R, recommended we try John and Yoko at Greenbelt, it’s actually my first time.

 

  I know this place is owned by celebrity Marvin Agustin, correct me if I’m wrong. Ambiance wise was definitely chic and modern.







 For ice tea, they have 3 different kinds, green, blue and red ice tea which costs P110 bottomless. I forgot which one is the calamansi and so on, but the red ice tea was fairly okay.   



  For our food, since we are 8 people our friend suggested we try the group platter, the only group platter that I remembered which we ordered is the: there goes my diet, which costs around P1500+ there’s another one, but I forgot the name, price was almost the same. I say, it’s worth it for a group. Presentation wise, it was unique.







 This is the first platter with different angles. I was far from this platter so I asked M to take a picture.
   I wasn’t able to take a picture of the 2nd platter which was near me, haha! coincidence huh? So here’s a few photos I took

      
  The yakisoba was good, it was on the sweet side. I love the chorizo on top, definitely worthy of 2nd order. The BF and his best friend J, described it as, parang ulam, kulang na lang kanin. Haha!



 Can you see how pink and fresh the tuna sashimi looks? it definitely tastes fresher (probably a higher grade of tuna), I can see there’s no litid or white parts in between the fish which is good.

 

  I wanted to stay more for crazy and interesting chit chats with them, but sadly, I have work. Until next time.
   Before I forget, our total bill cost us P3000 divided by 8 = 375.
 
  While eating we saw the celebrity couple Ms. Anna bell Rama and his Husband Mr. Gutierrez, it was a sight. Could’ve been more interesting if Ms. Ruffa was there, hehe. The prices of John and Yoko was okay, it’s a good place for celebrations, that is if it’s only the BF and me who will be dining there.
 
  I don’t get it why the meat that was served to us was a little warm, the only hot food I ate was the rice. But no complaints really, everything tasted just okay, but then there are other things to try in the menu. Definitely, do try out their group platter, it’s so sulit.

Till then!
