"Konnichiwa!"

Tired of Filipino cuisine? Leggo Japan! Yeah, well not literally, but let's experience a bit of their culture by having a taste of their appetizing dishes. Japanese foods are becoming popular these days as more and more of their locals visit our country for travel, business, English studies, and so on. Many Japanese restaurants are becoming more widespread in our country not just for the traveler's availability but for us, Filipinos, as well. As foodies as we are, we are not afraid to try something new and let our tongues experiment and relish the taste of different foods.

One of the most popular Japanese restaurants here in Cebu is the Chibori Shabu-Shabu & Sushi Bar. According to my Japanese friends, Chibori is one of the best restaurants which offers an authentic Japanese taste. The dishes are quite expensive but the taste is worth the price and the Japanese feeling is there, from the place to the staff's welcoming greeting! IRASSHAIMASE!

A must-pose before entering the kingdom of Chibori. ^^

And it's time for dessert!

Excited as we were but it took a long time (I think that was about 20 minutes) for them to serve this very simple dessert. I don't know why. Remember, patience is a virtue. ^^

Gochisousama deshita!!!

To wrap things up, Chibori experience was a thumbs up for me. The waiting time may be a problem (just enjoy taking pictures and chatting while waiting

). However, there are still many reasons why you'll be pleased to come back to this restaurant. The foods are delicious; worth the price, the place is simple and cozy and the staff are welcoming. I shall return, Chibori!
