SAISAKI "LOVE SEAFOOD" BUFFET

At the very heart of Japanese cuisine, lies the beautiful and bountiful fruits of the island nation’s seas. The Japanese consumes 66 kg of seafood annually, four time more than the world average consumption. To the Japanese, love for seafood is more than just a palate affair. It is embedded in the country’s culture, culinary and everything else. It is enshrined in the altars of the nation’s temples, worshipped as homage to the Shinto gods and goddesses. In Japan’s ancient mythology, Benzai-Ten, the goddess of the arts, love, wisdom and everything that flows was originally a sea diety. Seafood, together with all of the sea’s bounty stand for love, romantic and filial. This relationship sets the tone and taste of Saisaki's buffet festival for February, the world's month of love. Saisaki buffet, incomparable in its variety and Japaneseness, showcases the Seafood of Japan in all its sensous richness and seductive pleasures, truly a feast of love for seafood lovers.

KAMAYAN BUFFET GOES CRAZY OVER COCO !

As the world’s largest coconut exporter to the world, the Philippines boasts of an unsurpassed array of coconut dishes, quite a number of which will be featured in KAMAYAN’S COCO LOCO, the restaurant’s maiden buffet festival for 2009.
Considered as the “tree of life” for its plentiful properties and uses, this wonder fruit which is a truly a seed (the world’s largest), boasts of a history just as distinguished and colorful. The New Guineans believe that the palm tree spontaneously sprung from the head of the first man. Coco, which means “monkey face”, literally resembles one with its roundness and brown husk covering. “Kalpa Vrikaha” is the Sanskrit term for the “tree which gives all that is necessary for living”, also a fertility symbol to women who want to conceive. However, in Bali, women are forbidden to touch the coconut tree lest the fertility of the tree may be drained. In the Nicobar island of the Indian Ocean, whole coconuts were used as currency until the early 20th century.

Not true that the coconut as a cooking ingredient began and rests solely in the culinary hands of the Bicolanos for the Southern Luzon province is only one of the 14 coconut producing regions in the entire country. Fact is, one sees a coconut tree or plantation from Aparri to Jolo. Thus, KAMAYAN, the country’s foremost Filipino restaurant brings together the various popular regional coconut dishes from all over the country.

Truly a mega culinary achievement, a first of its kind Filipino buffet selection. All these in addition to the KAMAYAN all time favorites, namely, Lechon de Leche, Kare Kare, Grilled and Sizzling Choices, Appetizer, Salad and Dessert sections.
Taste the Kapangpangan’s cooking prowess with KILAWING TANIGUE SA MANGGATA (green mango gives extra spike to cocomilk thickened vinegared fish),
BISTIK LUBI LUBI (Southern Tagalo’s classic beef steak enhanced with coco milk),
Bicol’s deliciously boasts of TINUTUNGANG COCOROKOK(chicken coco dish), TINILMOK (shrimp, pork and coco meat wrapped in yam leaves). From the Visayas, comes Aklan’s PINAYUKANG BABOY (pork coco dish), Iloilo’s SINUWAANG BABOY AT BUKO (Binakol style sour soup), Samar’s HINATUKANG TARONG (eggplant coco dish) and KINAYOD NA BUTIG (yam fruit dessert).

Kamayan Buffet is priced at P335, VAT inclusive. Available in all Kamayan branches: SM Megamall (636-3785), Glorietta III (892-8898), EDSA (705-1807), Padre Faura (528-1724) and West Avenue (413-6359).

JOZU Celebrates Year 1

From the elegant play on colors and texture to the enticing aroma and mouthwatering flavors, Japanese cuisine is in a class of its own. Unique to the heritage is a distinctive style of cooking that is highly revered to be a delicate art form.

The story behind the name Jozu (meaning skillful in English), which aptly describes how the Japanese conduct their business in the kitchen, harks back to the ancient days of Japanese craftsmanship. Whether winning battles or creating dishes, the Japanese have set high standards for their blades of choice. What the sword is to the Samurai, the knife is to the Japanese chef. And yet no matter how sharp and supple, a sword or a knife is only as good as the one who wields it. The kitchen experts, as demanding and exacting as their warrior counterparts, wield these culinary blades with as much perfection and skill.

With its team of Japanese chefs, Jozu brings to the table a vast selection of Japanese food ranging from perennial favorites Jozu Sashimi Tokujo, Jozu Sushi Tokujo, Kani Sushi and Futo Maki to signature dishes like Jozu Jumbo Platter, Gyu Kamameshi, Teriyakidon, Tonkatsu, Katsudon, and other grilled fare. Celebrating year one, Jozu’s evolution is ushered in by additional and new dishes showcasing Japanese fusion cuisine. The hot dishes selections aptly and collectively described Crisp on Fire boasts of vibrancy in colors and flavors. Cooled by Tranquil Water, Sushi Bar collection dazzles the eyes and taste buds with intriguing and interesting combinations.

In keeping with the restaurant’s character, the design scheme ―from the interiors down to the cutlery ―conspires to create a hip and modern dining scene that’s very much in character with Quezon City.
