Tokyu - Budget Japanese Restaurant in Kapitolyo, Pasig City
To all of you who loves Japanese food, this one’s for you. Japanese food is almost always within reach since there’s Tokyo Tokyo, Rai Rai Ken, and Sumo Sam (at least in vicinity I am in, which is in Pasig City). But some friends are most of the time ‘bitin’ when they eat Japanese, especially the hubby. Prices are not going down, and quantity do not follow increasing prices, he he. The once almost-fast-food mode to eating at a Japanese restaurant is slowly transitioning to just casual to fine dining. It means one thing to me - you can’t do it everyday. Time to find that budget Japanese restaurant fast.
Introducing Tokyu! Tokyu is hidden in Kapitolyo, Pasig City, very near the heart of Ortigas Center. It is within the compound of Pioneer Center, a local supermarket along Pioneer Ave. It’s choices of Japanese food are the same as with your usual restaurants, but the quantity and prices are better! Prices are lower and quantity is more. Where can you get that. I introduced the place to some officemates and they have not stopped going back, and they are spreading the love. I think we should demand a discount when we get back. Hmmm…
Last night, the hubby and I are there and we ordered Beef Teriyaki, California Maki, and Shrimp Tempura. Our total bill - 380 pesos. Here’s where it is so nice. The Beef Teriyaki is good for two persons already and costs only 120 pesos. The Shrimp Tempura is five pieces from the usual three in other restaurants but costs only 150 pesos, and the California Maki is 14 pieces from the usual 6 and it’s just 95 pesos! Okay, I don’t have time to compute for variable contribution margins, but on top of my head it spelled cheap…
So there you go. Another one of the secrets we, Pasiguenos, keep. More to come.
