Sambo Kojin is a modern eat-all-you-can\u00a0Japanese and Korean Yakiniku\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>(meaning \u2018grilled meat\u2019) restaurant focused in providing not only fresh and premium meat, poultry, seafood and produce,\u00a0but also relaxed\u00a0dining experience. It\u2019s for<\/strong>\u00a0people who enjoy grilling your own meats on the table. It\u2019s not<\/strong>\u00a0for people who want their clothes to be smelling fresh when they leave the restaurant. Our insider tip<\/strong> is house tea is not on the house.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Popular sauces include cereal milk and milk jam, a new holiday Red Velvet\u00a0sauce is available! Bestselling crunches include the Valrhona Baby\u00a0and White Chocolate Oldie.\u00a0Our insider tip<\/strong> is watch out for dark lips after eating.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Yo!

It\u2019s not for<\/strong> people looking for roasted meat rice toppings. We recommend<\/strong> the Crispy Pork Chop with Cheese Sauce and Noodles, Crispy Roasted Pork Belly, Super Xiao Long Bao, HK milk tea and their signature HK Egg Waffle Sundaes, made with Italian gelato.

Helmed by Makansutra Singapore founder, KF Seetoh, Makansutra is a Singapore hawker-inspired\u00a0food hall<\/strong> with 12 specialty stalls\u00a0that offer popular street food from around the world, so no it doesn’t offer just Singaporean dishes.\u00a0It’s for<\/strong> people who\u00a0are craving authentic Asian cuisine. It’s not for<\/strong> those looking for a Filipino twist, because the taste are not adjusted at all.\u00a0We recommend<\/strong> the Ah Tee Oyster Omelette, Satay Set, Laksa, Chicken Claypot Rice, and the famous Hainanese Chicken Rice. Our insider tip<\/strong> is the place has poor ventilation and may get too smokey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Din Tai Fung is an internationally-known dim sum restaurant<\/strong> from\u00a0Taiwan and a 5-time Michelin awardee most famous for their xiao long bao. Expect a showcase of their expert wrappers thru their signature open kitchen window. It\u2019s for<\/strong>\u00a0curious foodies who want to know what the fuss is all about. It\u2019s not for<\/strong>\u00a0people looking for roasted meat\u00a0rice toppings. We recommend<\/strong> the Classic and Truffle XLB\u2019s, spicy shrimp wantons, pork chop rice, and the dan dan noodles.\u00a0Insider tips:<\/strong> (1)\u00a0The menu is tailor-fitted for the Philippines and may differ from other international menus (i.e., the\u00a0Golden Lava Salted Egg Yolk Bun), and (2) You can order your beef noodles your way\u2013all beef or all tendon, or half and half.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ooma is a modern Japanese<\/strong> restaurant by the Moment Group and young acclaimed chef Bruce Ricketts, the same partnership\u00a0that brought us Mecha Uma. Ooma, a wordplay on Uma meaning \u2018good\u2019, promises\u00a0bold Japanese flavors at affordable prices. It\u2019s for<\/strong>\u00a0heavy rice eaters, rice is unlimited. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> people looking for ramen. We recommend<\/strong> the Soft Shell Crab Taco-Maki, Hangar Steak and Uni Udon.\u00a0Our insider tip<\/strong> is that at Ooma, you get to \u2018brush\u2019 (not dip) soy sauce on your sushi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Vikings Luxury Buffet has redefined\u00a0the buffet service<\/strong> industry; what was once mostly\u00a0available in hotels catering to the upper classes has now been made available to the middle class. It\u2019s for\u00a0<\/strong>families and groups who are looking to celebrate special occasions affordably. Customers\u00a0are loving their avocado ice cream.\u00a0It\u2019s not for<\/strong> people who prefer the ambiance of a hotel buffet. Our insider tips<\/b>\u00a0are (1) Visit on your birthday month for a free meal. Don\u2019t forget to bring a valid ID. (2) Book at these branches<\/a> to get up to P500 off your bill.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

RB CTY \/ Rib City is a fun and interactive American diner specializing in tender, fall-off-the-bone ribs<\/strong>. Other items on the menu include\u00a0pasta, salads, soup and other mains. In line with their restaurant concept, guests are encouraged to play and build legos while waiting for orders. It\u2019s for<\/strong>\u00a0lunch breaks with workmates in the area, barkada nights out or weekend\u00a0play dates with the kids. It\u2019s not fo<\/strong>r people who are looking for a quiet place to work in. We recommend<\/strong> the Big City with CTY rice or the Twin Tower. Our insider tip<\/strong> is non-rib eaters can still enjoy their burger and Philly cheesesteak sandwich.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
