Restaurant Feature: My first foray into Izakaya Kikufuji @ Little Tokyo Makati
For months really I’d been raring to go to Little Tokyo to explore and check out one of the main restaurants there – Izakaya Kikufuji but I just didn’t have the right timing always that is until I met up with an old friend from way back for some lunch. He was also fond of Japanese food and so I decided that we should check out Izakaya Kikufuji.
It was kind of crowded during the Saturday lunch hour so we just sat at the bar facing the sushi chefs and I was so excited to see them in action. This post is many months late so I’m not sure if I can still relay all the essential details but one thing is for sure, the restaurant had pretty decent fresh fish and I loved the food that I was served. I loved it so much that the very next week, I brought other foodie friends to enjoy another lunch there.
It’s value for money Japanese fare. I highly recommend it! 5 stars for Izakaya Kikufuji!

| Friend DR suggested this delicious sushi. He says he’s eaten better so I’ll have to take his word for it. Not so bad though! |

| One of my new favorites – Crispy tuna salad! This was really delicious for me. |
 |
| Since it is an Izakaya place, we got ourselves a few and sampled them. There was one with enoki mushrooms, cherry tomatoes wrapped in bacon, leeks and some other good stuff I was not able to take note off because I was busy eating! LOL! |
After the meal there was even complimentary iced coffee which I liked! Nice one!
Overall it was a very pleasant first time at this restaurant and I suspect I will be coming here often and introducing it to friends as well who appreciate good food!
