Watami is a Japanese casual dining restaurant that has a lot to offer. They are part of the TGIF Group of companies.
I have always love Japanese food. Well, except for makis, sushis, or anything that is raw. We decided to try Watami for a change.
Here are what we ordered:
CALIFORNIA MAKI: PHP 335.00
As mentioned, I am really not a fan of makis. I think because for me it smells a bit fishy. I did try a gimbap once and it tastes like "suman". But since my sister loves makis, we decided to order it and based on her taste, she said it was delicious. Guess I have to take her word for it.
DEEP FRIED TOFU WITH TEMPURA SAUCE IN STONE POT: PHP 230.00
This is something new that I have tried. I guess it is a bit like Tempura but instead of Ebi, they used Tofu instead. I love Japanese Tofu so this dish is something that I really like. It has the crunch of the outer coating and the softness of the Tofu while the sauce compliments the Tofu's bland taste. I recommend this dish for those who are looking for something new.
CHASU RICE IN STONE POT: PHP 300.00
I love stone pots especially if it is a rice bowl stone pot. I just love how the rice below gets a bit burnt for a crunchier texture. This Chasu Rice is best for picky eaters. Be careful not to burn yourself while eating in a stone pot. The pot could get very hot.
CHICKEN KATSU CURRY: PHP380.00
When going to a Japanese restaurant, ordering a curry is a must. I love Japanese curries and Watami's curry is no exception. Eat it while it's hot.
HOMEMADE GYOZA: PHP 230.00
Another must-have when going to a Japanese restaurant, Gyoza. Though this one tastes pretty much the same as other restaurants. Still tastes good and food experience in a Japanese restaurant won't be complete without it.
Overall, I find the prices are a bit expensive compared to other Japanese restaurants. But definitely worth trying out.
