Tokyo Tokyo: The Great Donburi Taiketsu Showdown!

Monday, March 31, 2014


When you are presented two heaping bowls of rice and shrimp or rice and maki, which would you choose? Well that's about to become even real as Tokyo Tokyo reveals their best ever Maki and Shrimp Katsu Donburi. They've also gone bolder and pitted these two variants against each other in a one of a kind showdown entitled The Great Donburi Taiketsu!



These bowls have been a staple in every Tokyo Tokyo branch nationwide and it's pretty cool that it's now going to be in the spotlight! Why not?!  


 Imagine the Maki Donburi that mirrors the best seller California Maki which has got deep fried Kani scores of crispy onion rings smothered with Japanese Mayo and a savory sauce.

Then look at the other bowl of  Shrimp Katsu Donburi that mirrors their Katsudon that contains a crunchy shrimp patty in Tokyo Tokyo's original sauce topped on a bed of steaming hot white rice. 

The only problem then is, what will you choose? :)

Tokyo Tokyo has taken pride in making your food experience in their stores premium but affordable with these choices. Now, you can get these treats for less than a hundred pesos. Ala carte bowls of these wonderful Donburi bowls cost Php 85 but if you wish to have your meal complete with a glass of softdrink then you can get it for Php 99, isn't that a great deal? I know, but here's how you can get a thousand bucks worth of gift certificates courtesy of our friends from Tokyo Tokyo. Click on this!


Please make sure you answer the survey only once. Otherwise, you will be disqualified. Good luck!

Good Food and the Winner of our Tokyo Tokyo Philippines Giveaway!

Friday, January 17, 2014



This restaurant has been our go to place when I was in college. Without mentioning how many years ago that was, we find comfort in the four corners of this Japanese food mecca because it's affordable and the Red Iced Tea just hits the spot in a tropical country like ours. I'm sure you've already eaten here a couple of times because they've got some of the best Japanese food varieties available all throughout the day! This is TokyoTokyo!


They have a variety of them in store but I ordered the Godzilla Burger to try it on for size. It's a pretty big one and quite tasty. It's best you have this eaten while in store so you can have it still hot off the grill. The meat is moist, the cheese is thick, plus the wasabe mayo on this thing is really good. Very JapaNICE if I may say so. You should try the Shitake Mushroom and Shogun Burgers too.


They are veterans in this industry and you can't say anything bad on their Tempura. The sauce and all were probably developed over the years; making it a bit perfect for the Filipino palate. It's a tad sweet, but really good if you're finding something to satisfy your shrimp cravings.


This one's part of their SUMO MEAL deals. I wanted something crunchy and that's what I got with the Honey Chicken Teriyaki plus the savory Beef Misono. I wanted more rice and they did fill up my bowl with hot white rice as it's unlimited in some stores like in Ali Mall. If you're out with a friend or two, this is a score!


The pot stickers aka Gyoza was also tasty. I like the vinegar they served with this because its really tangy that it cuts through the fat coming from the dimsum. The skin had the right thickness too. I had two servings... so don't ask how I got this big. Really good, plus the price is very reasonable. A cup of rice can make this better!


Their Kani Salad and the Mango Kani Salad presents a good alternative for those who want it more healthy. Although I must warn you I still ate a lot after munching some of these veggies because the Japanese mayo is undoubtedly so creamy you'll want more!


Their California Maki and Spicy Beef Maki was really good. The serving might be too small for you though because you'll definitely want more. Don't worry, they have bigger servings via Maki Platter which you can order for 235 or 275 bucks. If you want something to take home or just enjoy with friends, this is definitely something that you should order right after you dine in Tokyo Tokyo. If I was asked to choose, the Spicy Beef would definitely win.


Spicy Chicken, Tempura Miso or Braised Pork Ramen, you can't go wrong with that. It is advisable to have this inside the store because they serve this hot. The broth is really nice and not that salty. The steamy bowls would be the perfect thing to have in this weather... else, you can have the Udon if you prefer something a little more filling because the noodles on that's pretty phat!

There's more TokyoTokyo food to share with your friends and family. You can't miss them in major malls and establishments. I enjoyed sitting there with my Red Iced Tea plus all these food with my family. It's time you make your own moments at TokyoTokyo Philippines. Don't just stand there! Go drag your friends there too!
