Welcome To Tokyo Tokyo! The Philippines Famous Japanese Fast-Food. Get Your Chopsticks Ready!





Why there’s no food on the table? Why you didn’t cook?  I'll tell you, surely you don't wanna ask your mom these questions or anyone in your household especially if you just came back from work feeling very hungry and tired. Calm down my friend and drink water first. You're in a cold sweat. It's not yet the end of the world. Just relax and don't scream. I'll tell you, surely the only way to escape from this is to get out of your house and find the nearest convenience store or much better restaurant. Food delivery is okay too.
Eureka! At last, the chaos inside your stomach will be over. You saw that there's a fast food nearby. One of your favorites. It's Tokyo Tokyo! Time to eat!
I'll tell you, surely no one wants to experience this but in reality most of us do experience this unforgivable circumstance. It's a great thing that nowadays as long as we have enough money we can resolve our hunger quick and easy. Whether we like it or not, fast food is still most of the time the answer to your hungry tummy.

In the Philippines, millions of people go to different fast food chains everyday. Undeniably, our crazy busy lifestyle era often leads us to rely on buying instant food and all-in meals. I can say that we are already used to standing in the long line of people and sweet smile from a crew member. Let's be honest, we love crunchy chicken and we want to buy bucket meal like all the time. However, too much is somewhat always bad. It's also important to eat healthy food cooked by your mom. Always follow this rule of thumb; "Everything in Moderation".


So what do you usually order? When we say "fast food" we always think of McDonalds or Pizza Hut. For Filipinos, the first name that comes in our mind is Jollibee. Thanks to globalization because of it we can eat chinese food in Chowking and taste new ramen in Tokyo Tokyo. Speaking of, last month I was invited by my friends to attend Every Nation Church worship service in Bonifacio Global City and we went to Market! Market! after. It was like first time for everything, from church to mall. Our minds didn't agree with each other first where to eat but later on we just decided to take our dinner in Tokyo Tokyo. Honestly, this is the most popular Japanese restaurant chain in the country and its signature is the bento, also known as "a complete meal in a box". Plus! It's all the rice you can eat. Brilliant! Right? 
The price is right! I can say that meals are budget-friendly because you can be full for the price of under 200 Pesos(roughly 4 US Dollars). From bento meals, ramen, maki to desserts. Everything is affordable and definitely a haven for rice lovers. Sadly, we were not able to try their new ramen because it was not available. We ended up eating the usual meals and sides we order when we go to Tokyo Tokyo. Pretty much you can relate. Check these below!

My favorite! Gyoza! 45 Pesos(roughly 1 US Dollar) *value add on 

Maki makes me full quickly. 60 Pesos(roughly 1.20 USD) for 4 pcs.

Truly a bestseller! Prawn Tempura(served with rice and vegetables). 
170 Pesos(roughly 3.40 USD) *Ala Carte / 230 Pesos(roughly 4.60 USD) *Bento Upgrade.

Tasty! Beef Misono(served with rice and vegetables).
170 Pesos(roughly 3.40 USD) *Ala Carte / 230 Pesos(roughly 4.60 USD) *Bento Upgrade.

I want more sauce in my Pork Katsudon! 100 Pesos(roughly 2 USD) *Ala Carte / 125 Pesos(roughly 2.50 USD) *Bento Upgrade. Miso Soup and Almond Jelly Dessert are 45 Pesos each(roughly 1 USD)

*Prices may still vary among stores. Please check Tokyo Tokyo website for more details http://www.tokyotokyo.com.ph/menu.php

Finally! Hunger is over! How's the food you ate? Hope it won't happen again because next time you might end up eating canned sardines. Tokyo! Tokyo! is always my top choice whenever I want to eat tempura or gyoza because it's accessible. It's like everywhere. It may be debatable to you but based on experience if you will compare it to a fine dining Japanese restaurant in Makati City the taste of the food is almost the same. Come and try it! Get your chopsticks ready!

Paradise Philippines 2025: Siargao

Para, para, paradise!! Lovely morning, y’all! How’s everyone doing? It’s already May, and so much has been happening lately, office dramas, rotational brownouts, mood swings, the rainy season creeping in, rising inflation, bits of great news, and heartbreaking headlines caused by corrupt politicians. But through it all, you and I still have to keep moving forward, keep showing up, and keep choosing life every single day. That’s probably why little escapes and quiet moments away from the noise feel extra special these days. Today, we’re diving into a new blog post, and I have a question for you: if you were given the chance to escape today — even just for a little while — away from all the responsibilities and stress of the world, where would you go? Would you finally visit the place you’ve been dreaming about for so long? Or would you rather wander off to somewhere random, with no plans at all? More than two years ago, I found myself asking this question: now that I finally had...

Museo San Agustin Intramuros: Tale Of The Oldest Stone Church In The Philippines

It's not fool to say that April month is on its way! Aren't you excited? One more week to go and we need to turn another calendar page. What are you looking forward to? Yey! The long wait is almost over and I can feel the summer here in the Philippines. Without a doubt, one of the things you have on your list this April is "grand vacation". For students, definitely a much longer hours of sleep since officially most are already on school break this time. For catholics, let's not forget that Holy Week falls on April this year. Are you ready for the Visita Iglesia(church visit)? Well, you're maybe still on the process of searching for your seven churches and if I'm correct you might wanna consider  San Agustin Church especially if your route is just within Manila City. Aside from Casa Manila, this is also a must-see place in the Walled City, Intramuros . It was last year when I visited this church for the holy week also and that was the only time I had a ch...

Manila City: Sta. Ana's Tesoros delos Desamparados Festival Grand Procession

Viva! Viva Maria! Viva! Viva Maria! Viva! Viva! A strong, unsynchronized yet passionate cheer was heard from the devotees and parishioners of the image of Our Lady of Abandoned (Tagalog: Ina ng Walang Mag Ampon, Spanish: Nuestra Senora de los Desamparados) when we entered the gate of Sta. Ana Church. Pooshhh! And a colorful confetti welcomed us, fell slowly and freely from the ceiling to the ground. I was near the walkway to the altar when I said "Thank God! (sigh) Finally the procession is over". Ok, you might be thinking what is this all about? It was the flowery and grand fiesta procession I attended last May 12 in Sta. Ana, one of the towns in the city of Manila. I'd say, living here is an advantage for someone who is a culture-seeker, history buff and foodie like me. Old houses, church and great eateries to food crawl. There are streets that will somewhat bring you back to the old style Manila. Grand Fiesta Procession is one of the activities of Tesoros De ...
