Tldr; pretty good Japanese and preuvian fusion restaurant…read more Ambiance: modern and Japanese inspired, Lots of wood and relatively good number of seating. It's comfortable but the bar seating felt like there was ac straight on my seat. Service: service was good. I noticed food kept coming out and each time whoever was able and close by took the order to the same table! They had three people serving that same table food. Had to ask for my hot water twice but was prompt as soon as I asked the person behind the counter. Food: I really liked the soft shell crab, I want to try the others next time. I only ordered half which was 5 pieces, I liked that you could do this. The udon was good the noodles were different that what I'm used to and slightly too soft but still Al dente. The soup was slightly too salty for my taste but still flavorful. I was disappointed in the duck portion but it was enough. The duck was very tender and went well with the soup. Overall would go with a different protein for this udon next time, and focus on sushi rolls.

More on that below) We had a total of 4 dishes to share between my sister and I. We ordered a tuna ceviche which was fantastic - fresh and tangy just the way i like it. The sushi rolls can be ordered in pieces of 5 or 10 and so we got 5 pieces of the Salmon Miso rolls (one of their best sellers) and 5 pieces of the Uni rolls (also popular). The salmon sushi rolls were very good and fresh. We then ordered and shared a main - the tuna and uni cheese Risotto which was good. Overall the food was good. For drinks we had their Sake Sangria which was a little too strong for my liking. Oh and when we left the place my cousin exited near the ladder which wobbled and nearly fell... um i understand the aesthetics but having that there is pretty dangerous.

It was ALL FAT. Chicken teriyaki was average. Calamari was ok, but it had a little too much sauce, and it wasn't crunchy. The char siu bao was pretty good, but I will never order it again. Nigiri was good, but if you want sushi, go ACROSS THE STREET into the mitsukoshi; 2nd floor. Service was great, food was disappointing. Drinks were ok. I would never come back. I guess people come here for the ambiance: located right in a busy corner with outside seating.

Much like the fabrics that Peruvians weave. The food looked enticing but it's a little lacking in taste. The seafood in the paella were overcooked and dry. The salmon skin chicharron was good, as well as the chicharron de calamar. However, servings were wanting. The lomo saltado can be a little bit more tender. Though I loved the flavor of the pollo a la brasa. 3 favorable out of 5 dishes we ordered, I'd say that's fairly average. It's fairly new when we visited. I won't mind going back in and trying it again.

Kalsada is a small place along Malingap St., just beside Big B's. It is owned and operated by a…read morecouple that patterned their concept as a pop-up food concept in their establishment. They don't have a fix weekly menu, but it's always a surprise, especially for the set menu they are offering. The place is small and can be packed at 20 pax only. They have a shortlist of menu offering, but for the set menu, it needs a reservation. Everything's fresh and prepared the same day as the event, rest assure that everything is not pre prepared or have been stored for a long time in their storage. Our meal was started off with their liver pate served with toasted bread and pico de gallo. I like how their liver spread was smooth and creamy, it doesn't have the bitter, iron-y taste that is usually present in the liver pate. The second course was pork neck served in tablespoons. It was tender and flavorful. This is one of my favorite part of the meal. The pre-main course is their mozzarella flat bread. It is basically freshly made bread topped with mozzarella cheese, some tomatoes, onion, chimichurri, and another sauce. It is like a thick crust pizza. The bread is soft and the flavor combination was good, but I find it bland and lacks of seasoning. A little more salt or flavor would do. This is my highlight for the night, their Peruvian chicken. The chicken was nice and moist, the flavor of spices has penetrated the meat. It was slow cooked in its own fat, as a confit. It was just sooo good. The dessert was a panna cotta, mangoes, and matcha. The matcha was subtle that it just highlights itself and not overpower anything. The panna cotta was just too stiff. Too much gelatine that made it more like a creamy jello than a panna cotta. I informed the owner about it, so the next time I comeback, it would be better. The whole experience was wonderful and for the price of P500. It includes a 6 course meal and warm service from the owners. #TheFoodCrawlers #OngsFoodprints #SplatMNL
