To my readers, it's foodie time and here's something that I've tried and I wanted to share this specific food trip.  For this experience I was invited to one of the Japanese restaurant here in the metro, specifically in Gateway Mall in Cubao.  I think this is the first time that I'm invited in one of the restaurant in Araneta Center.

Since Araneta is one of the common place in Quezon City I'm sure most people would have already tried dining in most of the establishments in the area.  So here's one that is something new but still Asian in nature.

So, to make you drool no more and imagining here's the press release and some of the pictures experiencing the place and the menu.
