GastroAdvent#6: Tokyo Cafe

When you have a few resources to spare, your food options widens and you tend to try new restaurants which you wouldn't usually go to when you are in a tight budget. This is how Clyde and I discovered the wonderful menu of Tokyo Cafe. We got too confused by the food choices available at SM North's the Block that we ended up choosing this cafe's dishes by just looking at the seemingly real plastic food display.

The ambiance of the store is just normal there are a few diners which is nice when you want to dine in peace. They also have decent food choices, some of which became our favorites during our occasional visit.

Menu
I liked their simple menu, the coffee design already got me. I can never be turned off by coffee (except for the bad ones).
The cafe kinda reminds me of Starbucks meets modern Japanese style. The staff (in my experience in SM the Block branch) greeted their customers in Japanese.


They offers soups and salad, pasta, chicken, beef, pork, seafood, burger, pizza, sandwiches, parfait, dessert, crepes and their special blends of coffee!

I'm no food expert but I'd like to share to you some of my personal choices:
1. Tokyo Caesar Salad
2. Garlic and Shrimp Pasta
3. Tokyo White Pizza - this one almost became a staple during our visits
4. Sumibiyaki and/or Tokyo Blends coffee
