MUNCHSTER BITES: JiPan with Le MOM

A heavenly japanese fare at an old time favorite- JiPan

Mom and I went to SM Megamall last Sunday, she was craving for Japanese food and the first thing that came to mind was SumoSam. The food choices were a bit pricey. We plan to share one dish but I didn't like salmon, so I suggested that we check out Komoro Soba. Komoro Soba is relatively cheap but unfortunately they were not serving Chahan (fried rice) which my mom craves for. She remembered JiPan which was on the same floor. JiPAn is a small store selling baked goodies (bread, cakes etc.) and hot meals. We decided to eat there and it was a truly a great choice!

My mom ordered Chahan (Fried Rice) P100/cup, a bit pricey for the size of serving and a basket of Ebi Tempura P260/5 pieces. 



I on the other hand was craving for Gyudon P200/order (Good for 2); additional egg for P20. The Gyudon was superb and relatively cheap for the amount of serving and quality of taste, adding raw egg is a must although ridiculously priced, 4 times its actual price :P Two people can share one (1) bowl, depending on your appetite.

While the Ebi Tempura had that crunch and authentic taste. A big plus is that they didn’t scrimp on the shrimps, all were plump and long. Nothing special about the sauce. 



Take home left over, half Gyudon and 1 tempura strip. :D
