Moshi Moshi in Japanese language means hello or if you want to get a person's attention and Moshi Moshi restaurant did just that.
From Robinsons Galleria where we had our Masatami experience, we headed off to Moshi Moshi, Katipunan for lunch. I used the vouchers I bought from Deal Grocer which entitled us to a Bestseller Bento Set consisting of Gyudon, Chicken Karaage, Takoyaki, Shrimp Rolll and a choice between unlimited ice cream with one regular drink or Unlimited drink with one serving of ice cream. Ice cream flavors vary per day while all drinks are available (milk tea, apple/lemon iced tea, soda, juices) excluding the green tea shake.
Gyudon (6/10 bites)- Yummy thin slices of beef, a bit dry and probably would taste better with egg and a dedicated sauce. We didn't like the rice, we were expecting sticky japanese rice.
Chicken Kaarage (5/10 bites)- Yummy at first bite but again it couldve tasted better with sauce. You get that "umay" feeling after eating two chicken pieces.
Takoyaki (8/10 bites)- Quite similar with Musashi,only with small octopus slices. Best if they added more nori and mayo.
Shrimp Roll (10/10 bites)- This is my favorite dish of the bento set. I love that there were crunchy tempura bits on top of the maki roll. It was flavorful with generous fillings of shrimp and cabbage.
Milk Tea (7/10)- Too sweet for me. One glass is enough, although Jai had 3 servings of this because of the unli drink promo.
Ice cream (7/10)- Regular soft serve ice cream. Nothing spectacular but we prefer the vanilla flavor rather than the strawberry. The strawberry ice cream is a bit too creamy, we were expecting a mix of sour and sweet flavor.
Apple Iced Tea (4/10)- Jai didn't like this at all.
Over all it was a great dinning experience. It had a clean-feel ambiance with white painted walls and light green seats. The moshi moshi grass mural, hello kitty/small cute toys and kit kat boxes from japan made it fun and funky. We also enjoyed listening to anime music and reminisce about our kiddie days :D
