Yokuzu minnah, sore wa mada nihon resto, watashi chottoh..eiii..honto ni nihon food dai ski dakara...anyway i hope you enjoy this blog entry, gomene if my jap is kinda not perfect yet..
Ive seen posts by bloggers, three of them already, as soon as i saw the first post, i swore i will visit it. im really passionate about food and Japan culture. I love anime and the theme it self just blew me, along with how authentic this food is
The Katsu Master
Chef Kazuya Takeda is Yabu's expert consultant. His the head chef of Tonkatsu Takeshin, a popular tonkatsu restaurant in Tokyo.
About the Katsu
Fresh and imported meat used in preparing the best Katsu, if your worried about the oil content of the Katsu, they use Canola oil which contains omega 3 and has zero trans fat and zero cholesterol , it keeps the breading crisp and meat flavored without the cloying after taste.

Lets Dig in
 |
| love how the chilli and pepper imported from Japan, the salt is in the piggie pot..kawaii desho? The white sauce taste a bit like peanut-ish the Black or Brown sauce is a little sour, you can try both :) |

| My set! Chicken Katsu Desu-wa~ (insert evil anime girly laugh) *oh oh ohh!* Complete set with rice, miso soup, unlimited cabbage, fruits, japanese pickles, and ocha "green tea" i think..i started drinking Green Tea last week, thats why im kind of used to it, it has no sugar which is ok with me, i dont like my tea sweet |
 |

 |
| chilli all over my Katsu, the chilli is not that hot (at least to me) |
The Other Dish: Chicken Curry
 |
| i love how the curry was! i recommend it to people who love curry! |
Unfortunately i couldn't taste the chicken :)) i have a cold and something in my tongue went numb. maybe the chicken meat was boiled? no idea..my taste buds were somehow absent. im excited if they will come up with new ideas and dishes in the future ;)
Trivia
***The Yellow Pickles that comes with your Cucumber***
Takuan (沢庵), also known as takuwan or takuan-zuke, is a popular traditional Japanese pickle. It is made from daikon radish. In addition to being served alongside other types of tsukemono in traditional Japanese cuisine, takuan is also enjoyed at the end of meals as it is thought to aiddigestion.

My Thoughts
Budget
Min P300 per person, i suggest bringing P400-P500 per person
Ambiance
The place was really neat and clean, the place is a little bit not decorated yet, really simple. im sure in the future they will give the place some "umph"
Staff
they were very friendly, super friendly, fast service! 5-10 minutes and my order is ready!
oh i went yesterday around 8pm it was crowded, we were for waiting about 10-15minutes i think, Yabu is so popular!
