Chicken Deli

We had an excellent experience at Umu today. Both the food and service were excellent. The Wafu steak was tender and the included gravy sauce was quite yummy as well. Their Philippine Maki (Umu’s version of California Maki) includes what seems like prawn meat together with the usual filling of crab stick and mango. The Salmon Teriyaki was cooked just right. The meat was soft and well seasoned. You can see the meat glisten as you eat it. Our water and hot tea were refilled immediately without us even asking, and they even gave everyone hot towels after we’re seated. Price was quite expensive though. Good thing we got a good discount from Eatigo which made the bill more affordable.

Riozen is a very good restaurant and worth your consideration. I lived in Japan for 5 years as a working exchange student and this resto is one of the closest you can get to capture the authentic taste and food of a down town Izakaya in Tokyo. The Japanese Chief is always there supervising the staff and their dishes are not only a wide variety but also very close to taste of the resto bars in Japan. In fact The very fact that the restaurant is patronised by more Japanese customers than local filipinos shows that the restaurant is authentic.  I respectfully disagree with the other reviews. There was one reviewer comparing the prices of Dampa with Riozen, thats unfair as Japanese restaurants usually command a premium because of the craft involved in cooking Japanese dishes. There is no Japanese restaurant out there that have the same seafood prices as Dampa (which is basically a market place). A cook in Dampa cannot compared to a authentic Japanese Chief in skill and their dishes have a difference in taste.
