I love it when I randomly discover
a good restaurant. It makes me feel that I deserve a Dora the Explorer
badge or something. Anyway, I felt that two weeks ago when I discovered
Nihonkai Tsukiji.
Hello, Nihonkai Tsukiji.
The place isn’t something that you
would instantly notice as the signage of this Japanese
restaurant is quite discreet.
Upon entering, I noticed the notable attentiveness
of the crew. They instantly handed the menu and one Japanese guy (I’m assuming
is the owner) pulled a chair for me to put my bag on.
We ordered Salmon
Aburi (PHP85/piece), Salmon Sashimi
(PHP340), Makunochi Bento (PHP400)
and Tempura
Moriawase (PHP380).
First served was the salmon
aburi and it was great! The cut was generous and the salmon
was fresh. R really liked it and wanted to cancel the salmon sashimi for more
of the aburi
but the chef already prepared the salmon sashimi.
I wasn’t able to try R’s mixed tempura
as I was overwhelmed by
my own order. R said that it was okay though.
My bento
meal was value for money. For PHP400, I get a bowl of miso
soup, katsudon,
rice, salad, agedashi
tofu, tuna and salmon sashimi, a small slab of salmon, and two slices of
egg.
The bento was nothing spectacular but
it sure was filling. It could even be good for two as I shared some of mine
with R.
Overall, it was a pleasant dinner. I’ll
definitely visit again!
