Philippines is BETAMAX or ISAW. Japan is YAKITORI.
Yakitori is grilled chicken on sticks BUT with a UGH. Or should i say UGH?! Yakitori is not your ordinary chicken barbecue. WHY? Its different parts of the chicken. Like what? Well of course the thighs, skin, liver. Common you say? How about chicken small intestines? Sus Isaw lang yan. How about chicken tail? chicken gizzard?
Lemme share to you my Yakitori Experience...
The Yakitori is located in Burgos Circle Fort. Yes I know, there are a lot of restaurants in Burgos Circle but what makes Yakitori special is that from the view outside, you can already feel the Japanese ambiance. Oo, tumatagos sa labas.
Yakitori has 2 floors. On the way up to the second floor, you willl see the owner's collection of different Japanese Sake. Sake is Japanese traditional wine. Philippines wine is Lambanog while for Japan its Sake.The 2nd floor can serve as a small gathering place. Ideal for office people within the Fort for a meeting or just Pay Day Outs with your Boss or colleagues.

Yakitori's food was served FAST and FRESH. It was just minutes after we ordered and food were already laid. Like normal people think, "luto na ba to? bilis naman". Hesitant, but I'm already hungry (as always haha) so here goes BIG-AH.
Well what do you know? Its cooked and its FRESH. Barbecues are sold by pair and rice is bought separately. We ordered 4 different barbeques, soo if its a pair that would be 8pieces.
4 x 2 = 8
Makes sense?

| Best rice i ever tasted. |
Tebasaki Boneless is boneless middle wing meat. Tsukune is minced chicken ball.
Tebasaki Boneless is just like the normal grilled chicken but much tender and full in taste and for Tsukune its like frozen chicken balls, but Japanese style with stick:)

Momo is chicken leg meat. Momo Ninniku is the same as Momo (duh) however with garlic. Momo's meat tastes like Chicken Inasal, just smaller.

Indeed one of the best Japanese Restaurants in the Bonifacio Global City. Its not your ordinary chicken barbecue, its Yakitori.
